I spent just over two weeks with Tihana on her lovely farm. The location is amazing, in the middle of the countryside surrounded by forests and nature. The dogs and cats are just adorable and I will miss taking care of them along with the garden where most of my work took place. I loved morning walks Maria and the dogs, and cooking traditional … read more

Faye and Darren were a lovely hardworking couple. They managed their assigned task very diligently, they were helpful and friendly with the farm staff and left giving enough notice and leaving everything clean and in order. A pleasure to host.

5 stars for Arun and Puru based on the concept of their project and what they are doing to save our planet. We found them truly inspiring to talk to and were in awe of everything they are doing in order to reinstate the forests of Karnataka. We only wish we’d had more time to spend with them. Lilita’s cooking is exceptional and we were fed so … read more

Faye and Darren stayed with me for two weeks but it seemed much longer: they have done so many jobs, we had so much fun together, it was always a challenge to cook something that all 3 of us liked and they also gave me back some of their delicious meals. I could lay in most mornings because they loved to walk with the dogs and the dogs were of … read more

We spent a perfect two weeks with Helena who is a excellent host with a kind, generous and friendly nature. We were made to feel at home instantly and Helena had lots of great recommendations on places to visit in the area. The help included gardening, cleaning, pruning the olive trees, some maintenance and walking Helena’s gorgeous dogs! In … read more

I spent 4 weeks helping at Angela’s place and I felt completely at home from the first day! Angela is a very warm, friendly and welcoming host.

I loved helping to look after the rescue dogs staying with Angela and seeing the progress they were making was a truly heart warming experience. Angela took all the volunteers and dogs for a walk on … read more

Whatever time Faye spends with you will be too short. She is an easy person with animals and people, gentle and charismatic. An excellent work ethic and will do or try anything with a great will and a 'can do attitude'.

Very much in tune with the animals here, some of whom are difficult having only had minimal human contact. Bonded with some of … read more

Faye stayed on our farm for almost two months during summer and it felt like an angel had stroked down at the right time on the right place on earth! She has been taking care of our goats and chicken as if it were her own. She took care of them with a lot of responsibility and dedication! Even on weekends or off days she would never skip a day. As … read more

I spent a fantastic 8 weeks on David and Eli's farm and it was an experience I will never forget. David, Eli and Pauline really took me in as part of their family and it was really sad to have to say goodbye! My main jobs were looking after the animals, gardening, cooking and cleaning. No day is the same, the work is varied and can be physical and … read more

I stayed for just over 2 weeks at Gemma's farm and it was an experience I will never forget. She is a very caring and friendly host and I felt very comfortable and welcome at the farm. The work was very physical (which was great for me), although there is plenty of free time for relaxing. Gemma is very knowledgeable on the Lusitano horses and I … read more

It was a very pleasure to host Faye. She made it very clear that volunteering is more than just doing some jobs and enjoying free time. She became a part of the family in the house. In general very helpfull and caring for the animals. Hope to see her back in the future for a longer time perhaps as now it was to short...
