When I saw Anna-Joy’s profile on Workaway, I knew I had to contact her, cuase they sounded like a really good match for us and, when she accepted my invitation, we were really happy, cause we knew it was going to be an amazing experience. However, their stay with us, even though it was a bit short, it exceded our expectations and it couldn’t have
… read more been any better. Anna-Joy is a very interesting woman, super sweet and kind and very brave to be travelling on her own with three kids, but she has everything under control. We have a lot of things in common and I really enjoyed sharing with her my ideas about multilingualism, cultures, travelling, raising kids, etc. and we both learnt a lot of from each other. About the kids, they are all super cute and fun and our daughter absolutely loved having them in the house and playing with them. The oldest one is exactly the same age as our daughter, they became friends from the very beginning and shared a lot of wonderful moments together. But María also loved playing with Etienne and looking after the little one. The house felt very empty when they left and we really hope that the friendship that started with their stay in our house will continue in the future for a long, long time.

Hosting Ophelia in our house was a true gift for us. She arrived here during a hard time for our family and she was just amazing. Everbody that met her while she was staying with us, just loved her.

My daughter absolutely adores her, she can't stop talking about her and she misses her a lot now. They played a lot together, read many books and she told her lots of stories. She also managed to become part of our family very easily and was always willing to participate in all the activities that we prepared for her. I also enjoyed talking to her and she was just a pleasure to be with. I can only say positive things about her and cannot recommend her enought to any family that might host her in the future. We feel extremely lucky that she decided to stay in our house and we hope to keep in touch and to see her very soon.

I cannot recommend staying with this amazing family enough! This was my first workaway experience and it has been absolutely incredible.

On the two or three weekends where I travelled to visit friends in other parts of Spain, Isabel was amazing at helping me find the best bus/train routes and gave me lots of useful information. Isabel and José are incredibly kind, friendly, and easy to talk to - I felt that I could talk to them about anything, and go to them for help and advice. They helped and encouraged me so much with my Spanish - Isabel always spoke to me in Spanish while Maria was at school and answered any questions I had, so that every day I felt more confident and like I learned something new. My time spent looking after Maria was always great fun - she is so imaginative, sweet, enthusiastic and creative (her craft skills put mine to shame!!), she made me laugh lots and her fluency of English blew me away! I really enjoyed our afternoons together which were spent playing, drawing, reading, cooking and doing crafts. Isabel is such a lovely and kindhearted person, and was always keen to facilitate any interests I might have had, from driving me to the swimming pool to making me appointments to get my nails done! José is also incredibly kind and his cooking is absolutely amazing, I am missing it already! I feel so lucky to have shared this experience with this wonderful family, and I am so grateful for everything. It was hard saying goodbye but I know that I have gained friends for life and I have no doubt that we will see each other soon.

This was my first Workaway and I couldn’t have asked for a better family to host me. Isabel and Jose are some of the kindest people I’ve ever met.

Jose is also very kind, he is very playful and likes to make jokes and he makes sure you’re always comfortable, I didn't speak much Spanish at the time but we were able to communicate through laughter and jokes! They are honestly wonderful people and I also felt so welcomed by their parents and family. Maria is also a sweet little girl and she made me laugh a lot, I was continually impressed with her ability to speak two languages so effortlessly and how intelligent she is. To do this job, you really have to have an affinity for children and it requires some patience but it is a rewarding experience! They also showed me around the north of spain, we went to incredible vineyards and castles and they taught me so much about Spanish culture. I was lucky to be there during the festival season and it was fun to get involved in things with the whole family. I really recommend staying with this family, they are so sweet and genuine! Thank you all so much for being so kind and welcoming! :)Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

On the weekends, we visited places around La Rioja, and I went foraging for mushrooms with Isabel's brother Víctor, which was a lot of fun. I cannot thank then enough for everything they have done for me, I am very glad to have spent time with people with such kind hearts.

The main ‘role’ was looking after and spending time with María to develop her English, but her English is so impressive that it doesn’t feel like I was teaching her, but just that we were playing and having fun everyday. She is such a sweet, thoughtful and intelligent little girl who impressed me all the time, and she has been the best ‘little sister’ to me. I will really miss her so much! Of course, Isabel and Jose made my stay amazing too. Jose is great at cooking and although my Spanish is very basic, I found him really friendly and fun to be around. Isabel was also amazing, she was so helpful with everything and I got on really well with her, I’m going to miss our walks! She also helped me so much with my Spanish by sorting the classes in the village for me and also giving me Spanish lessons some mornings too! There were other au pairs in the village who Isabel introduced me to and this was lovely as it meant I had people my age to meet up with and travel with. The weekends were free so I went on a few trips to cities in Spain which was great, Isabel was able to help me with this by recommending places and bus companies etc. The family showed me so many places, for example, a winery, monasteries, castles etc, and I really enjoyed our days out altogether. They made my time in Spain unforgettable and I’m so glad I got so close to them, even though it made it so much harder to leave. I’m going to miss Spain and the people in it so much, but I’m so glad I have so many great memories to look back on for the rest of my life, and I know that I will see the family again and we will stay in contact.

We were very comfortable in our accommodation, although we always felt entirely welcome and relaxed in the family home, it was really nice to have our own space as well.
I am eternally grateful for the experience and Isabel was so kind and intuitive in anticipating our needs and comfort as well as accommodating our vegan diet and lifestyle.

They made every effort to integrate us in Spanish life and we shared many happy trips with them to local fiestas, beauty spots and different sights in the area. We also spent a lot of time with their extended family in the village and really enjoyed feeling part of the local community. Isabel and Jose are flexible and relaxed which made co-existing easy and we had our own living space on a separate floor which worked really well for us. Maria is an easy child to care for, very sweet and talkative (in perfect English!) and we really enjoyed watching her friendship with our children grow. Pradejon may not be the most picturesque village in Spain, but it is surrounded by beautiful countryside and a good base to explore the local area from. If you want to experience true Spanish village life with a wonderful family, we recommend a stay here very highly.

What can I say about Jenny? It was a great experience to have her here with us. We had an awesome time with her.
