Andrei and Agnes were awesome! Kind, interesting, easygoing personalities, and super diligent in their work! What a great combination of traits. They patiently sanded, washed, and painted a metal gate and associated fencing in very hot weather with patience and calm and seemed to really enjoy the work. It was fun to get to know them a little bit, hear about their previous workaway adventures, their lives at home, etc. I would happily welcome them back any time!

What an outstanding opportunity to be a Workawayer here. Deirdre and Etuka are extremely welcoming and interesting hosts. Working on the wooden pathway and garden was a great way to spend the days, followed by hiking right out their back door. Thank you especially Etuka and Domhnall for being my hiking buddies and Deirdre for hikes, conversations and amazing meals. If you are lucky enough to be offered a Workaway position here, grab it!

Hilary was such a kind host, and we loved meeting her parents and otgher family and friends. She was very welcoming, and we also learned a lot about Northern Ireland and farm life. And we lved her sweet little dog, Ruairi! Highly recommend!

Priscilla is a very friendly, respectful, and sweet person! She was very attentive and thorough whilst looking after the farm alone, and took on the responsibility happily. I was also impressed as to how well Priscilla adapted to the lifestyle and conditions here, as it must have been very different to the usual for her! This is a person you can rely on, with a heart of gold :)

Saskia is wonderful! She is extremely kind and adaptable. Communication with her is easy, whether it is with a small child, a teenager or an adult. I am extremely grateful for the creative and gentle energy she brought to our family, for the interesting stories she shared and of course, for the conscientiously completed tasks. We had a great time together and my little son really wanted her to stay for 50 days :-)

Isabell was great to have around . She is fun, helpful, kind and my animals loved her. Anyone who Isabell stays with will be very lucky indeed.

David and Carmel were an absolute delight. They were great workers, helped a lot around the house and garden . They were very kind and even baked delicious treats for my parents and friends. I trusted them right away to take care of the house, and animals when I went away on business and holiday. Ruairi my little dog was a big fan! They enjoyed partaking in farm life and kept the house clean and tidy. Responsible, kind, and fun!

It was a bit of a last minute opportunity to have Jette here with us and we are so glad that it worked out. Unfortunately there was only the chance for her to staying for one week, but it was abslutely worthy and she managed to blend in harmoniously so quickly with the community and the rest of the workaway group. Jette is very adjustable, friendly and warm. She is very well-mannered and one can clearly see that she has a very empathic nature that allows her to relate very successfully with everybody. Even though it was a relative short time, she experienced a variety of tasks and activities, and she excelled in all aspects. It was also nice to witness her inclination for reflection and mindfulness and she has a very thoughtful way of approaching the world, which she shares very gracefully. We gladly hope for a visit again in the future and wishing her nothing but the best along the way. See you soon dear Jette!

Jana is a very pleasant person to have around. We experienced her as an open, fun, discreet, generous and engaged person, who is enjoyable to be with and talk to. Also workwise we were happy to have her here. Due to a heatwave, working in the garden was not an option, but she prepared good meals that she gave some thought. She would for example use recipes from her home country because she expected (and was right!) us to appreciate eating something new. Also she brought us some delicacies that we very much enjoyed. All in all: it was a good match, therefore we truly hope to welcome Jana back!

Jordan was with us for about two weeks and we were so glad and grateful for his presence and contribution! Jordan is very clever and inquisitive and everyone was so pleased by his respectful and kind ways of asking and inquiring about the eastern philosophy practiced here in the farm. One can recognize immediately that he has a lot of life experience and he has a particularly sweet and well-spoken way of sharing it. He has as well many manual skills and talents and eventually every department was looking forward to having the opportunity of having him around for the day :) His openness and desire to learn all the names of the community members, were as well remarkable to witness :) I would truly not miss out the chance to have his uplifting company if I were his next contacted host. All the best for your next adventures dear Jordan, see you soon!

I enjoyed my days with Sonia and Xaloc, who are very welcoming and generous. We had very inspiring and open conversations and their dogs are the most lovingly cuddling pets I ever met. Their place is amazing with a lot of potential and even though my visit was short I left very impressed.

Daniel is magical. Daniel can come back whenever he wants. We hope he does. He makes you feel good just by being himself. He loves rivers and we love rivers. We love Daniel.

Alex was with us for a couple of weeks and it was really pleasant to spend time with him. Alex has a soft and open nature. He reveals his heart with ease, while sharing great insights and he loves to experience new things. He does everything at the best of his capacity and he is very reflective with great insights. His communication style was also impeccable: he communicates always on time and with utmost sensitivity and visible respect. Definitely recommending Alex to any host who would love the company of a tender, responsible and curious soul around. See you soon dear Alex and all the best!

I had the pleasure of workawaying with Marco, Bandita, and his friend Andrea for a week. Marco is a really warm and welcoming person, open to sharing all his knowledge and answer questions in a lot of detail. It was a beautiful experience to stay with him, full of learning about the nature and permaculture, deep conversations about life and sweaty work. During the day we worked, ate and did siesta. Then, we took turns cooking, doing the dishes and spent our evenings eating and talking. Sometimes we met some of Marco's friends and other workawayers. The house is really in the middle of nowhere so if you want to discover some other places or be independent- you need a car. But it is also beautiful to stay around the house, read in the shade and listen to the sound of bees. I hope one day to be able to come back! Thank you Marco ❤️.

We had a wonderful three weeks with Michi, Akea, Diana and Rocco and would recommend this Workaway without hesitation. Our tasks mainly consisted of looking after the three dogs (definitly the best ones, each with their little personality), taking them on two 1-hour walks each day, feeding them, doing a bit of gardening, and some housekeeping when needed (never more than 3–4 hours a day). Michi often works in Bologna, so we were quite autonomous, but he was always available if needed. He is incredibly respectful, kind, flexible, and enjoys sharing his culture. His hospitality is exceptional, and he cooked almost every meal for us—it was absolutely delicious and a wonderful way to discover authentic Italian cuisine. Thank you so much, Michi, for your generosity, your trust, and all the moments we shared. You made us feel at home from the very first day, and we'll always remember this experience with a smile. We hope to see you (and the three little champions!) again someday. Tell us if you come near France :)

Miriam was a strong breath of fresh air during four warm summer weeks. Her gusts of fun and laughter are never ending and kept us on our wings throughout the day, as we tackled and learned from practical projects. With authenticity and a true self, she brought life to the house and our hearts, while also challenging our minds. Miriam provided tasteful Italian cooking and helped with a variety of practical chores. She is always helpful and likes to try new methods and machinery. I can strongly recommend Miriam’s presence to anyone who wants to be uplifted to the happy sky.

I had a great time with Greg and Barry, everything was nice and I loved working on the garden !

Unser Aufenthalt in Sabines Wohnung war super! Die 2 Katzen waren lieb, der Kühlschrank zu unserem großen Erstaunen prall gefüllt, der Garten war groß, unsere Kids hatten reichlich Spielzeug, alles war ordentlich und sauber - eine rundum positive 1. Erfahrung mit Workaway :) Danke dafür!

I found at Thorsten’s place a space to explore Sweden, cook vegan food, and laugh a lot. It has been an honour for me to be hosted here. Clear tasks, clear goals, and plenty of time to go on trips and explore the area. 10/10. På gjensyn, eternally grateful, Miriam

It was a pleasure for my wife, Agnese and I to meet Barney, Ali and their lovely dog. We stayed for one week at their picture-perfect retreat in Umbria. Our project was to sand, prime and paint the entrance gate with a chocolate-brown finish. The work was enjoyable, and it was great to see the transformation by the end of the week. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. We really enjoyed our luxurious accommodation, conversations while "working," heading out for dinner together and taking evening walks by the lake while enjoying a gelato. The surroundings in Umbria were peaceful and relaxing. On some days we borrowed a bike to explore the nearby lakes, rolling hills and charming villages. It was the perfect place to unwind and experience the beauty of the region. Leaving wasn’t easy. Agnese and I would return in a heartbeat, not only because of the beautiful location but also to continue the friendship we made with Barney and Ali. We highly recommend staying with this wonderful couple. They are kind, welcoming, and made us feel like part of the family. The setting is truly magical—even when it’s 38°C in the middle of summer! Keep in touch, Barney & Ali. We hope to see you again soon.
