Helen was a very hard worker. She had no trouble walking long distances and took the dogs for long walks without complaint. She also completed cleaning tasks quickly and efficiently.

She worked alongside Manisha, a Bhutanese-American, who was completely different in both age and personality. I’m sure Helen had many thoughts about Manisha because … read more

I stayed at Erika house for 10 days. They are a kind family and easy to get along. The 2 son are very smart and sensible. I like them very much. Erika was incredibly patient, taking the time to show me every task, even the simplest ones, and always made sure I felt comfortable. Her cooking is amazing—I learned a lot Japanese food from her. She … read more

Helen always puts her full heart into everything she does. What impresses me the most is that she consistently prioritizes the sense of achievement from completing her work over her personal life. We feel her humility, sincerity, and hard work. She is open to any opinions and wisely interprets what benefits they bring her, including spiritual … read more

My review is coming a little bit late. I spend 2 week at this place. I'm not sure I have the words to adequately describe the experience. So I'll start with the basics: The accommodation was immaculately clean. The food was incredible, you will savour every meal prepared with love by the Sunims. When you join this place, you're not just there to … read more

My review is coming a little bit late. I stayed for 2 weeks. I felt so warm and welcomed during my stay. Hyejin is easy going and easy to communicate with. This left me with fond memories. I want to say a big "Thank you" to her. I highly recommend this place. I will going to revisit her.

Hi, this is my first time doing Workaway. I'm very fortunate to have had this experience at Peter and June's house. They were great hosts, and I learnt a lot from them. I've had many first time life experiences here cooking Thai and Swiss food and growing garlic ,carrot and harvested fresh produce from the garden to make salad. I thoroughly … read more
