Sardinia, Italy - from Feb 2026 until Sep 2026 View all
Description
Ciao! We're Col and Gaia. We’re busy bees, passionate travellers and outdoors lovers. Having travelled land by bicycle, van and hitch hiking for the past 7 years (since we met on an organic farm in Japan through workaway!) we are very interested in low impact travel and off grid living. We're planning to move to Sardinia in early spring and would like to get in contact with local communities. We’re both easy-going, reliable, proactive and have a positive attitude.

I've only spent two weeks at the hostel but I really wish I could have stayed more. The staff is amazing: super friendly, helpful and willing to involve you in local events and activities. The job is easy and you'll have a good deal of free time to explore the surroundings… read more
