Matej was an amazing volunteer. He really came to help out and wanted to work a lot more than what was expected. Everytime he asked again if he could help more, and I felt almost guilty to accept because I'm not asking that many hours from volunteers, but he insisted that he was happy to help. And honestly I could use it in this moment, so I felt… read more

I spent a wonderful 12 days at Esther’s place. Her property is absolutely ideal if you’re looking to be surrounded by nature and relax, yet still be close to bars and restaurants. The place has everything you might need.

I spent two amazing weeks at Isabella’s place, and it was probably the best Workaway experience I’ve ever had.
Isabella is a wonderful and kind person, someone you can truly talk with about anything. Thanks to her, I felt like a member of the family and the local community. And of course — she is an incredible cook. I will really miss her… read more

I spent two amazing weeks at Javier’s place. It’s a peaceful oasis on the Pacific coast, near Santa Catalina.
Javier is a wonderful and cheerful person with whom you can talk about anything. I’m really grateful for everything I learned from him about Panama and the United States.
He also has two very friendly dogs who were great company.
