Was great having Melanie onboard. She was a fast and dedicated learner. Had her knots down right away along with the routine of tasks onboard. No problems doing the dirty work of cleaning the hull ( wasn't too fun with the infestation of tiny shrimp). She's a pretty awesome baker. Managed to pull off cinnamon buns from a very finicky boat oven, I… read more

I have been on a few Workaway experiences but going on a boat with a random guy was something completely new to me. Now I can say it was a very good experience! If you’re looking for serious sailing this might not be the right fit but if you want to enjoy time on a boat go snorkeling and use the kayak it’s perfect. We also went on land sometimes… read more

Melanie spent almost 3 weeks with us and she was an absolute pleasure having on the farm. She adapted very well in our farmlife and she did not hesitate to jump right in and get involved with all the different tasks on the farm. Even the hard work to get rid of the weed (almost trees :-) ) in our fruit forest didn't scare Melanie of. She helped in… read more

My almost three weeks at Anjas and Pieters farm was an incredible experience. As my first experience on workaway, I did not really know what to expect but at the end of my stay, I was glad that I experienced it. There is always something to do on a farm and Anja and Pieter are really hard working people. They are a very welcoming couple and I was… read more
