Description
Hello! My name is Wenyi, but you can also call me Wendy. :)
I started my Workaway journey in 2024 and have really enjoyed every experience so far. I love discovering new places, meeting people from different cultures, and learning new skills along the way.
My next plan is to work and travel in Australia starting from December 2025, and also visit New Zealand. I’d love to experience the nature, lifestyle, and culture there. Feel free to reach out if you ever need a hand in Australia or New Zealand! ☺️
I have several housekeeping experiences in Ireland and Iceland, and I’ve also worked on a farm and in various homes, helping with cleaning, gardening, and painting.
I originally started this account with my friend Paggy, so one of the feedbacks (the first one) is for both of us, and another (from a host in Belgium) is specifically for her.

Wendy spent three weeks with us and was such a big help during the time she stayed here. She is an open, warm-hearted person who independently sees where her help is needed. Our children loved playing backgammon and other games with her. She is a great cook and leaves everything very tidy. It was a great pleasure to have her stay with us, and we… read more

It's a lovely and warm family—I had such a nice time staying with them. They welcomed me like a part of the family. I played board games with the children and learned lots of new games during my stay!

Wendy was just a dream to share a space with. She did her work well and with great care and attitude. We had great conversations over food or tea and I was glad to have found a moment to take her out on a road trip between my schedule and the terrible weather she had the misfortune of experiencing. Which is a frequent occurrence here in the south… read more

It's a lovely and relaxing place to stay, with two fluffy dogs and a cat. You'll definitely be well-fed and have a warm bed to rest in.
I stayed here for four weeks, and with the unpredictable Irish weather, I experienced plenty of rainy days. But when the sun came out, I got to enjoy some really nice road trips with Myrthe.

I had a great experience here, staying for nearly the entire month of October. I only needed to work around 1-2 hours per day, so there was plenty of free time to explore the area. Thor is a nice person; I learned a lot about the local lifestyle from him and even got to try some local snacks. When he had free time, he also drove me to some… read more

It was a relaxing and pleasant stay at Richard's summer house. I stayed for about a week and a half after Christmas until January. Nearby is a charming and historic town perfect for taking a stroll, and Richard kindly drove me to explore the surrounding area on a one-day trip, which was absolutely fantastic and beautiful.

Wenyi aka Wendy, was a gift to our family. She is funny, patient and considerate. Anything asked of her she did with care; I will possibly now be like a commercial strawberry grower after she transplanted the runners, planted over 200 blueberry bulbs in our small woods, did weeding and mulching, more planting… then I asked her to paint a fairy… read more

I had a very cozy time here in November for six weeks. The house is located near a beautiful lake, offering an amazing view. Nicola and Mark are fantastic hosts. I spent most of my time in the house with Nicola—she is such an enthusiastic person and always willing to help with any questions. I truly enjoyed my chats with her.

Perfect experience here. Marie and Tom are so warm-hearted and kind that I really don’t want to leave. I had a big issue with my skin when I arrived, and Marie helped me heal it. We also had delicious Irish food all the time—I really loved the soda bread! She also took us to explore the surrounding areas and experience the local culture.

Wendy was very kind and helpful. She got stuck into various jobs like outdoor fence painting, helping clean on days we were out of the house and childminding. Wendy was thoughtful and in the evenings would help clean up the kitchen area/empty the dishwasher etc outside of her work hours. I'm very glad that Wendy reached out to us, she was a great… read more

The greatest experience we had for our first Workaway. The location is really nice and the work isn't heavy; it only takes 2-3 hours a day, it means that we have plenty of time. We stayed here for a month in June, and there are many hiking trails, rivers, and lakes to explore. Most importantly, the Workawayers and employees we met here are all… read more
