I had a great time and stayed twice as long as I had planned!
Nick and Carolyn are great hosts and found a lot of other nice workawayers from all over the world that I stayed with. I had my own bedroom and two meals a day, the work was very interesting and I got to do a lot of carpentry stuff and after work there was always time to spend time with

Nick and Carolyn's place was nothing short of exceptional. From the work, to the area, to the company that we surrounded ourself with, everything was amazing. We were fortunate enough to stay with Nick and Carolyn for 5 weeks on their property in Ericeira. They both created a positive and constructive working environment, as well as a positive and

The work we did included helping to build a deck, painting rooms, painting stairs, and other smaller construction tasks like installing fans and sinks. As far as the area, Ericeira is a beautiful beach town off of the coast of Portugal with a vibrant community and lots to do. We never had a moment of down time (in the best way) as we were always conversing with other workawayers, watching shows together, playing games, and exploring Portugal when we weren't working. As newbie workwayers, we were a little nervous of starting this new experience, but once we arrived, we were instantly at ease. We have made so many new friends from around the world along the way, including their little dog Paddington :). Again, we cannot recommend this workaway enough. Thank you Nick and Carolyn!

This was such a special place with such amazing people, and we can only speak very highly about this experience. Nick, Carolyn and Paddington of course, are very kind and welcoming people with such open hearts. We spent about seven weeks here and the time went by too fast.We have experienced many other Workaways before this one and we can

The location is incredible, with lots of accessibility to neighboring towns, the ocean, Lisbon, and events happening around the area, there is always something to do and people to meet. For work we helped build a deck, paint, clean and many other little jobs.There was a great balance of work and play, never feeling overwhelmed or pressured to rush. The accommodation was very comfortable, we had our own apartment with a bathroom attached with a shared kitchen next door. Truly cannot recommend this place enough, we made lifelong friends here and we know that we will come back again one day <3Comentarios

Ronja and Manu were such a wonderful additional to our coliving house. They became the adoptive parents of our pup, paddington. It's hard to know who loved having them around more -- us or Paddington. They helped us build a new roof for our garage, made our garden look beautiful, and always showed up with a smile. They are both thoughtful and

We lived with Carolyn and Nick for a total of 6 weeks and 2 days.🌞 And I deliberately say "lived" because it didn't feel like we were working FOR them, but WITH them.🫶🏻 It felt like sharing a flat with friends. Nick and Carolyn are incredibly great people with a pure heart. People from whom you can learn a lot and who have an incredibly great

We were given a very warm welcome. We can only recommend this workaway to everyone. But be careful: your expectations of workaways will be extremely high after this one! 😲🫣😍😍 Guys we love you forever!! -Manu and Ronja

Gustavs was such an incredible part of our team! He took a lot of initiative and we ended up with some really cool things from him. He designed the deck we are building now and restored some old antique furniture, in addition to helping with regular tasks like plastering, painting, etc... He brought a great attitude to the house and was friendly,

This was my first workaway so I didn't have high expectation but now the standarts have been set up really high. hats off to the hosts for managing both the construction and the workawayers so well. They were some of the kindest and warmest people—you won’t be disappointed! It was a pleasure to meet people from different countries, and the
