I've been a nomad for almost four years now, traveling around my country, Iran, as well as neighboring countries and Southeast Asia.
I love spending time with local people and doing volunteer work as a way to connect with others and better understand myself.
As a serious birdwatcher, I prefer to be in nature as much as possible.

While browsing different Workaway hosts before arriving in Sri Lanka, I came across Monti's family and immediately knew it was the right place. They were kind enough to accept me, even though they were busy and in the middle of renovating a room.

Lakmini and MG are a lovely couple who cook a lot of delicious food together. They are always in a… read more

While in Pahang, I had to change my plans last minnute. I came across Simheswara's profile and he immediately accepted my request. When I arrived, he tried to find the best task suitable for me and how lucky I was that it was something I was always dreaming of: Working on organizing a book storage which my specific task was listing all the titles… read more

When I started looking for a volunteering job in Borneo, I came across Isak's profile and with the way he had described him place, I couldn't stop thinking about it! And how lucky I was that he kindly accepted my request. At first I thought about staying for a week, but as soon as I arrived I felt this the right place, especially for watching… read more

Left by host (Help develop a [vegan] ...) for Workawayer ()

Mitra sent us a very kind and honest request to join the project, and what was only meant to be a short period of help became a HUGE one after the early departure of another volunteer who was no longer in a condition to help, and the last-minute cancellation of others who had to fly back to Europe because of work.

Even though she had no… read more

When I was choosing this Workaway, I was a bit worried about the possibility of a tough situation—especially because I had no experience in construction. But it turned out to be one of my best volunteering experiences ever!

The host, Jean-Philippe (JP), is an amazing person—very intelligent and inspiring in many ways. Working with him was truly a… read more

I stayed here only for a week which passed very quickly. Ajay and Bina are great, hard-working people with bright insights. Living with them is just like being with your own family. Their children are really sweet and you can spend a lot of time with every on of them. I worked in the school for 4 days and most of the time, I was with younger… read more

It was a pleasure having Mitra. She helped me a lot with guest relationships. She is very good and knowledgeable about wildlife especially birds which was of great help to me. She behaved like part of the family and will always remain like one. It was very helpful to have her and she is always welcome. Take care and enjoy your holidays where ever… read more

When I was making plans to come here, I never thought in a million years that I would have such a wonderful experience. I enjoyed every minute of it and it was really like a dream to me. I can't describe how kind are people here, especially Dhanraj and his wife, Zaheeda. staff are very friendly, too. I was very fortunate that during my stay, Ian,… read more

Mitra worked for us for ten days, but we wished she could have stayed much longer.
Always energetic, helpful and never in the way.
I must admit i was very surprised at her skills, power and energy for such a small girl. "You are small ;)"
After work, she is like a candle in the dark, lighting up a conversation with clever and well grounded… read more

I feel lucky to have the opportunity to work with Mariam and Will for about 10 days. Mariam is a very kind and supportive person and Will is disciplined and always helps you do your job in the best way possible. The food they make is always delicious. I was fortunate to work along with two Swiss volunteers and we changed some fences and built a… read more

I always wanted to experience living and working in a farm and here it finally came true. I did not know a thing about different works in a farm and I learned a lot in the two weeks that I was here. My favorite part was going to local market with Selçuk and then preparing costumers' orders. Selçuk's mother is very very kind and I loved working… read more

Mitra helped us in making daily cleaning and tidying around the terrace and cleaned the rooms when needed. She always tried to be as precise as she could to satisfy our business' needs. She was always ready and happy to help with anything. We will be more than happy to see her back again in our village...

My first Workaway experience and it couldn't be better! When I went to Zeytinada I had no idea how long I will stay and I stayed there almost for 3 weeks, which I wish could be much much longer. Despite I knew very little Turkish, everyone was very friendly and kind to me. Bülent himself is a great person, very patient, flexible and supportive and… read more
