I stayed a month and a half and had a great time here! I had plenty of time for myself and I loved that we were in a beautiful place surrounded by nature which was particularly beautiful in the Fall. The family is very welcoming and kind, specially Anouk. And in general it is an experience I really recommend.

Nacho is a very nice, intelligent and calm person to have as a volunteer. He stayed with us for 6 weeks and took care of the driving, garden and dogs. He’s an excellent driver and also a great cook. We had interesting conversations about life in general and those were enlightening! Have a great Christmas with your family and maybe see you back in… read more

Ignacio—or should I say Mr. Smile, as he is always smiling—brought a youthfull energy to the Manoir that was truly refreshing. He is incredibly reliable, always ready at the agreed hour with his signature enthusiasm, asking, "What can I do today?" Even in the afternoons, during his time off, he would still offer to help if needed, showing a… read more

I encourage anyone reading this to send a message to Khair. I am sure that no matter who you are, you will become a better person simply by being around him. It is a delight to have a conversation with him, as he is very good at understanding people and expresses himself beautifully.

The place is wonderful and very relaxing. The food Abdel… read more

Left by Workawayer () for host (Have an unforgettable ...)

I believe this experience is what Workaway is truly about: Working in a foreign country, in exchange for food and accomodation, but also much more than that...

Workaway is also about:
- Facing new challenges / The biggest challenge for me, was to make the 9-11 y/o kids follow my instructions.
-Seeing the world through a different a perspective… read more

Kevin picked us up at the station in Chieti and immediately took us to this supermarket with such good Italian products. They have a very relaxing outdoor kitchen, so cooking Italian food in there was one of the highlights of my trip. We worked cleaning the common areas for not more than 3 hours a day and the rest of the time we were free to relax… read more

Nacho stayed with us for just a few days, but had the time to leave an excellent impression! Very interesting guy, cultivated, discrete, easy going and happy to listen to and tell stories. He got along very well with the other WorkAwayers at our place ;) Unfortunately we did not have a piano to hear him play, but if you do, make sure to host… read more

Michiel and Claire were so welcoming towards me and the other workawayers. It was very fun to have dinner with them and we got to hear some very interesting stories.

Regarding the work, it was very physical so my muscles felt like I just had went to the gym. So if you want to strengthen your muscles this is perfect for you. Not so much if you… read more
