I had an amazing time staying with Mike for two weeks. Mike is not only welcoming, kind and understanding but incredibly knowledgeable! I have learnt so much from working on his garden project. I especially enjoyed planting all kinds of different native trees.
I also found it lots of fun to meet other workawayers.
I really recommend staying with … read more

Sanna has been an exemplary volunteer over the two and a bit weeks that I have been lucky enough to host her. I can only echo what previous hosts have said in reviews in terms of her traits and personality. She is remarkably mature for her years and I would pick her for being a decade older of the basis of her worldliness, self-reliance and easy … read more

What an awesome person :-) Sanna was part of our family for much too short of a time. She was an absolute joy to host and wonderful company. Smart, considerate, hard wording and a warm soul. She would leave any place better than when she arrived. Safe travels and hope to see you again in the future. Craig & Rach x

I had an absolutely incredible time staying with the most wonderful people. Craig and Rachel made me feel completely welcomed and at home. They are genuine, caring and loving people. I enjoyed all our interesting conversations and I have learnt so much from you both.
Despite being busy they made time to take me to the beach, the local market and … read more

I had a great time staying with Larissa and Hamish on their farm! They are very kind and generous people. I enjoyed learning about life on a farm and it was very exciting to be allowed to help and observe with sheep gathering/ cow hearding.
My tasks were mostly around the house cleaning or organising and also doing some jobs in the garden. … read more

Sanna was an absolute angel from the moment she arrived. Lovely person, so eager to help and amazing attention to detail with each task. From her arrival, Sanna was keen to get stuck in with renovations and learn new skills as we progressed the jobs. She is great at staining, sanding, painting and having a a go at new skills. From a personality … read more

Sanna says in her own introduction "I am an easy going person", I would wholeheartedly have to agree! I would like to add however that she is also astute, intelligent, fun, stoic, a great conversationalist and an excellent worker. Nothing seemed to phase Sanna, from working at laborious weeding tasks to building fences in the wind and rain or … read more

I spent 2 weeks staying with Emma and Sam and it was incredible. They made me feel at home straight away and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The work I did was fun and rewarding. They have an amazing garden and all their fresh fruit and veg was so YUM. On my days off Sam took me on amazing adventures which I will remember forever. … read more

I had an absolutely amazing experience staying with Len and Toni for almost 3 weeks. This was my first workaway experience and I couldn’t have asked for anything better. They are truly such kind and gentle people. Thank you Toni for delicious meals and deserts - she is a great cook! Len drove me to different places for me to be able to see … read more
