Sarah was an absolute pleasure to host! She did an amazing job of decorating and painting. She is a willing worker, very experienced and her work is outstanding and better than most professionals. Sarah is fun to have around, great company and fitted in very well in our household. She also cooked a delicious dinner for us.

This was my first ever Workaway experience and I’m super glad to say it was fab. It was off season- I was told this and was more than prepared to have lots of quiet time, not a problem as I love to read and there’s Jock the wonderdog to walk. Hayley and Braam the owners went off on holiday and I shared my room with two other workawayers who were… read more
