Descripción
We're looking for a friendly and practical person who enjoys helping out with a few different projects around our home in Rabat, Malta. The help is varied, so there's something for people who like being organised, creative, or simply enjoy working with their hands.
One of the main projects is organising and tidying a residential garage by sorting tools and equipment, cleaning shelves, reducing clutter, and creating a more functional space. If you enjoy bringing order to things, you'll probably find this very satisfying. We also have some traditional Maltese sign writing projects, where you can help paint hand-lettered signs and decorative details. It's a great opportunity for anyone who enjoys art, painting, or would like to learn a local craft. From time to time, we'd also appreciate a hand with cleaning and looking after our private sailing boat, including washing, polishing, tidying, and other light maintenance tasks.
You don't need to be experienced in everything. We're much more interested in someone who has a positive attitude, enjoys practical work, is reliable, and is happy to learn. Whether you're naturally organised, creative, or simply enjoy helping out, we'd be happy to welcome you.
The exchange focuses on helping around our private home, personal storage space, and private sailing boat. Accommodation is provided in our guesthouse, giving you a comfortable place to stay while you experience life in Rabat, one of Malta's most beautiful and historic towns. In your free time, you'll be able to explore the local area, enjoy the island, and experience everyday life in Malta.
If this sounds like a good fit, we'd love to hear from you. Tell us a little about yourself, what interests you most, and anything you'd like to share about your skills or hobbies. We look forward to meeting someone who enjoys practical projects, creativity, and becoming part of our home for a while.

Ian is an amazing host! He makes you feel at home as soon as you meet him, he really tries to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible and there's a good mood in the house all the time. Both the food and the house are great! This is the perfect workaway experience.

Highly and strongly recommended, Charlie is the person you want to have around at any time. He is knowledgable, focused, understanding and skilled. Above all, he is a good friend.
I trusted Charlie from the second I met him. He also seems to find his way through any situation and is a highly independent guy. I can vouch for him whole heartedly.

It's been an excellent workawaying experience. Ian and me arranged my staying for 2 weeks at first and I ended up staying for 3 months. He is an open-minded fun guy, always willing to talk over any situation. I highly recommend workawaying with him, he is really nice as a host and much better as a friend. Hope to see you again dude!

It has been an exceptional experience, so much so that I have extended my stay by 3 months. We eat well, work at the house, sail in the weekends, climb and a just kick back in the evenings. I have even trekked around the island of Gozo with Ian and Jacob. A perfect life/work/social/adventure balance! highly recommended.

What an amazing host! Ian makes you feel at home instantly. He is
very positive, friendly and easy-going and attracts like-minded work awayers so it is a great environment to be in. The chiseling is very addictive and is now one of my favourite past times!
