Help with daily chores around our home near the beach in Malaysia

We stayed only a short week with Beth and Amin but if was already an amazing experience.
This family is just super nice and welcoming. We loved spending time with them and the whole larger family (children’s, aunts, uncles, cousins) they are generous and attentives! Thank you for opening your home and sharing with us as you did. Beth always… read more cooked delicious meals for us with jungle’s fruits and vegetables. Their house is super nice and the land around with the beach at 10 meters and all the cats and dogs living around is incredible.
We always worked with them, our tasks consisted of cleaning inside and outside and the house, raking leaves and grass and helping in building a house.
We sadly left today but hope to see you again somewhere, somehow. We will miss you.

I stayed with Elizabeth and her family for about 9 days and it was just a amazing experience. The family of her is so kind and everyone around has so much positive energy. I loved the dogs and the puppies around the house and the sunset at the beach is amazing. The family gave me all the good local food to try and it was soo delicious. The work I… read more needed to do was very easy and it was fun to work with Elizabeth in the garden. I would highly recommend everyone to meet this lovely family, you will have a amazing time. I hope i will see you guys in austria and i will send you the caps when I am going back home :). I appreciate everything you have done for me all of you. Stay the way you are and keep in touch. I miss you already :kissing_heart::kissing_heart::kissing_heart:

We spent almost 3 weeks on this lovely place. Everybody handled us like part of the family so we didn't feel that we were volunteering there. :)
Amin and Beth has a big house on the beach, with a huge garden stand by the seaside. We ate every day fresh, delicious meals, which we want to thanks again and again! :)) The guys (kids, and cousines) are… read more very interested and friendly and we did a lot of fun together. If we needed something, they just bring us to the city, or help us for anything.
We help in an daily work, and in the garden (pick up the leafs or the coconuts, cut the grass, help in the kitchen) so it was not too hard work and we had a lot of free time.
We got many nice memory and experience, because of that we are realy grateful for the whole family!
Beth, Amin, Lisa, Joy, Kici, Joven, anti Anna & everybody, thank you for these days, and we wish to see you somewhere! :)

We stayed with Beth and her family for 10 days. We took the bus and they came to pick us up to drive to their home. In the car we already got invited for a wedding! At the house there werevalways a lot of people around. It's a meeting point for their family and friends. We had our own room (We got visited by a few cockroaches) and could use the… read more shared bathroom in the kitchen. We advise you to use the bathroom in the garden (it's a western toilet and there's a good shower). Due to the bad weather we didn't had to work a lot. It wasn't always perfectly clear how we could help. Lise had to swipe the house and Floris helped with the workmen to build a wall. Because there was not a lot to do we had time for ourselves and offered to make a typical Belgian dish. We also tried to speak English to everybody so they could practice there language. We could chill with their nephew watching television. Beth took us to several occasions like 2 weddings, a catholic ceremony, the market,... Thank you for the experience!

I spend two weeks with Beth's family. Amazing opportunity to see malaysian culture and meet local family. Me and my sister enjoyed our time beacause whole family and all relatives were really nice people.

We spent 23 days in Beth and Amin family: it was wonderful, amazing, unforgettable... not enough words to say it.

If you plan to workaway with them, we really hope your are a friendly and nice people. You will try to help them the best than you can, because we are shure they will give to you the best of them.

Beth and Amin don't forget "ma… read more maison est ta maison", we will wait you in France.

See you as soon as possible

I spent two and a half weeks here with my travel partner, Aaron. We had the most beautiful time. This really is our Malaysian family now. Thank you to the whole big family :) opening your home to us was such a blessing. We experienced (and tasted) so much Malaysian culture. And we had fun playing Bananagrams with the whole family. Thank you for… read more everything~~ Big hugs! Xx

I'm so happy that me and my brother got a possibility to spend two weeks with Beth's family. We had such amazing time with them and I will definitely get back one day. I'm really happy that our first workaday experience was so great and that we got a possibility to get part of the most loving and caring family.

Work in Beth's place varied… read more depending on a day. Most of the days it was really independent and if there was nothing else to do we could always get to the beach/ yard and clean up there, play with kids or find something else to do. Their yard and the beach area is so big that there is always something to do :) here you can keep yourself busy with a small amount of
imaginary. + if you know how to play guitar, play different games with kids, cook, sing, take care of the garden you will love it here!

Thank you for the whole family (including aunts, uncles and cousins) that you let us get to know how is life and traditions in your family and village. We miss you!

I had the best first work away experience with Beth and her family that I could have wished for. I ended up staying for a bit more than a month instead of the planned 1-2 weeks. All family members and their friends were incredible friendly and we had a lot of fun together. The work I had to do was super easy like driving the kids to school, light… read more housework or preparing the new guesthouse.

Thank you Beth for this amazing time and for being my second family so far away from home. I enjoyed every single minute and can't wait to see you again!

We spent 2 weeks with Beth's family and really enjoyed our time there. We didn't feel like volunteers at all. Not even like guests. But like a part of family. Everybody were so kind to us. Nobody pushed us to work and we should figure ourselves how to help. So we mostly cut grass in the yard and helped on the kitchen. It was really nice time. We… read more had meals together (Beth always made sure that we are not hungry), played guitar in the evenings, took part in family's events like the Birthday celebration. The beach is just 10 meters from the house and it is very beautiful. We could spend on the beach as much time as we wanted and watched amazing sunsets. We felt very sad to leave this hospitable place and we hope to come back one day. Thank you Beth so much!
