Description
I am a 30 year old female from New Zealand. Previously I was living in Spain for 6 months working as an English teacher. I recently completed a workaway on an olive grove near Cordoba doing mainly gardening tasks. I also volunteered at a yoga retreat near Malaga. I love the outdoors and nature so would like to do a workaway on a farm or somewhere nearby to nature and beaches. I love meeting new people, learning about their lifestyle and culture and working with children.

Johanna is a positive and kind person. Also a great yoga instructor! She was very resonable about the hours worked and made me feel welcome and included. I did mostly cleaning and some gardening. The room was very comfotable, probably the nicest I had in my 2.5 months in Costa rica! The forest is an amazing place, so relaxing with the stream and… read more

Hubert was such a great workaway host! He really cares about you learning something from the work and finding it interesting and takes time to explain things properly. There was also lots of variety in the things we did, including plastering and painting his house, cutting and stacking wood, feeding his animals, and helping to tidy up a local… read more

My stay with Alex and Veronica really exceeded expectations! I wish I had planned to stay longer with them. We spent evenings together sometimes at their house or we would go and do an activity like a hike or go out on their boat. We also spent the weekends together and did a day cycling trip which was so cool. They live in a stunning area of… read more

I had a short stay of 3 weeks with Alice and her family, and spent most of the time with them at their house in Tuscany. The family always made me feel very welcome and included in everything which I really appreciated. I spent most of the time at the beach with Nina and sometimes Giulio. They are both amazing kids, so talented, kind and… read more
