WOW!! This couple has set a really high bar for future volunteers.

What a fabulous couple! I can't even begin to describe how great Gigi and Nestor are. Hardworking, energetic, pleasant and able to do a lot of different tasks. Every one in the house was just about begging them to stay and nearly cried when they had to go! The house is not quite… read more the same without Gigi and Nestor. I had a house full of volunteers when they were there. This couple was clearly everyone's favorite.

This couple is just AMAZING... one of the few that I begged to come back.

Nestor is an excellent driver, so can be trusted with a vehicle, without a doubt. He organized a trip to Toronto, driving the group there and back, which made for a very fun time for everyone! He has acquired a vast array of skills in his life and did a variety of household tasks for me. He also gave me a lot of helpful advice about everything!

This couple set an excellent example for my other volunteers. I had a houseful of volunteers during their stay, so that was very helpful. I am sure everyone learned a thing or two from Gigi and Nestor... I know I did!

Both Gigi and Nestor have the energy and stamina of someone half their ages. The others, especially me, just sat in awe of them most of the time! They are both in excellent physical shape, much better than most in their 20s. A perfect example of my favorite saying....age is just a number. And they are able to get along with everyone in the house, a mixed group of ages and nationalities....

Gigi....is there a star rating higher than excellent?? I wish there was, because she is the ONLY person who every volunteered for me that would earn such a rating! This woman is just a bundle of energy...even I had a hard time keeping up with her and that's saying a lot! She is pleasant, open to new ideas, helpful, caring, smart... I am just running out of ways to describe how wonderful she is.

Gigi took over kitchen operations in the hostel. She also cooked our community meals, and also made sure everyone was well nourished at all times for the days work. She has an extremely high standard for cleanliness and organization, and kept everything tidy in the kitchen and bathroom. She rearranged some things, making operations more efficient, and helped me figure out a lot of things in the hostel to keep everything running efficiently.

This couple would be an excellent addition to any hostel, hotel, orphanage, etc. Actually anywhere :)
I did not have a care in the world when they were there. I knew Gigi and Nestor would take care of anything in my absence.

Hosts, this is workaway at its finest. I can confidently say there are no other volunteers out there like Gigi and Nestor. I highly recommend this couple if you can get them. There are simply no words to describe how great they are. They won't be available for long because they just are the best out there!

A million THANKS Gigi and Nestor!!!! You rock!!! Come back soon!

Vagner was a long term volunteer for me, staying 5 months in the home I rehabbed in 2016. Since he stayed so long and we spent a lot of time together, I got to know him very well.

Vagner is absolutely the best volunteer any host could hope for! He is a brilliant person and could handle any task I gave him. In fact, he did most things much better… read more than I did, and I have been rehabbing houses for years! Vagner did all sorts of projects for me, including (but not limited to) cleaning, painting, small and large carpentry projects (including building a wall, building an exterior gate, installing doors and locks, installing wood trim, installing ceilings), plaster repair, drywall installation, moving stuff.

Vagner treated my equipment with care and always made a point to leave things neat and clean. He is really focused on his work when he is working, and does not get distracted. He has an extremely strong work ethic.

And if Vagner did not know something, he usually figured it out! If he could not, I appreciated his honesty in telling me that. He always knew the best way to do things and asked the right questions when he was unsure about something.

Vagner also gave me advice about how to handle all sorts of things. I can truly say I am a better person for knowing him and I’m so glad we are friends now. He is wise beyond his years and quite mature with a lot of common sense.

Vagner is also an excellent and careful driver. He usually drove when we went places and I also trusted him to drive my child home.

Vagner also progressed to helping me manage my rental property. He took care of all the typical things that go with managing a house. Vagner was great at keeping me informed of any problems at the house. Not only did he recognize problems and tell me about them, but he usually had solutions to problems if I asked for his opinion. Since I did not live in the house, it was such a great comfort to know that Vagner was there. My mind was always at ease knowing Vagner was in charge. I never worried about anything when he was there because I knew he would handle any issues.

Everyone in the house loved Vagner! He is a kind man, very patient, and he has excellent manners. Vagner is rather quiet and reserved. Vagner is shy but once you get to know him, he has a great sense of humor. He has a very pleasant demeanor and a wonderful smile. Everyone who met him in Detroit thought he was a great guy!

Any host would be very lucky to have Vagner as a workaway. Not only is he an extremely careful and diligent worker, but he is also patient and highly trustworthy with very good moral character. He had keys to all of my properties, was in all of my houses alone at some point, and I never worried about anything.

Vagner has my highest recommendation. I am extremely grateful to him. He is a versatile worker who could perform a number of roles. Hosts, I suggest you get Vagner before someone else does!
