We couldn’t have asked for a better first Workaway! We were lucky enough to overlap with the owners, Ben and Emma. They gave us great local tips and stories, and were always quick to respond to our messages. The area is SO beautiful and perfect for outdoor lovers- we did some amazing hikes and loved exploring. The work (simple maintenance and helping with tours) was straightforward, if anything, we would have happily done more! Managers Javi and Ale are fantastic, hard-working, and incredibly warm and easygoing. And we miss Ale’s laugh!! They are welcome to stay with us anytime in England or Belgium. We loved the opportunity to join the tours, met some wonderful guests, and highly recommend this experience. Wishing them a great summer season ❤️

Lena! We want to express our sincere gratitude for the wonderful experience that both students and teachers have had with you. Your dedication and hard work have made a real impact on our students' English language learning journey. We especially appreciate the genuinely kind and encouraging atmosphere you consistently brought into the classroom. You truly created a safe and caring space where the students felt comfortable enough to practice and grow their skills. Thank you again for sharing your time and positive spirit with our school community!

Bei Sybille und Werner zu sein ist immer eine Freude und fast wie ein zweites Zuhause für mich. Sybille als absolute Powerfrau mit vielen creativen Ideen, Verschönerungen und Reparaturen beschäftigt. Werner mit seinem Humor und geduldigen Art ist der Ruhepol als Ausgleich in dem wunderschön gelegenen Haus. Neben der Versorgung der Katzen gibt es immer etwas zu werkeln, streichen, Unkraut zu zupfen und Haushalt zu verrichten. Bei all dem ist aber das Urlaubsfeeling an erster Stelle. Ich freue mich auf ein nächstes Mal.

I stayed with Mercé and her children in June 2025 and it was honestly an experience I will never forget. Abril and Nil are bright and happy children always looking to have fun whether it’s swimming, playing video games or playing football which they are obsessed with. They argue as any siblings do, however with patience and understanding you can calm them down no problem. Abril’s English is very good however, Nil does struggle with it sometimes. It is important to be patient with him to allow him to get his point across and giving him encouragement helps his confidence massively. They are cheeky and mischievous so be ready for anything but I guarantee you will have the most fun and enjoyable experience with stories you will remember for a lifetime. Mercé is honestly the most lovely and kindhearted person. She brings you in with open arms and treats you like a member of the family from the outset. She looks out for you and put so much effort into showing me the Catalan and Spanish culture. We had some lovely chats while I was there and I consider her a friend for life. You will not regret staying with this family. You will meet some amazing people while you are there and make the best memories along with it. Thanks again for everything Mercé

I spent three wonderful weeks with Bobby and Charlotte, and I couldn’t have asked for a better first Workaway experience! From the very first day, they welcomed me with open arms and made me feel super comfortable. They are incredibly kind and easy-going people, and it was a pleasure getting to know them and their funny cat! The house they renovated is beautiful, and I had my own lovely private room! The work was enjoyable and never difficult. Most of the tasks were in the garden, and Charlotte had a list of things from which I could choose what I wanted to work on each day. Charlotte also cooked incredibly delicious meals every day – I was always looking forward to lunch! I was allowed to use their scooter, which gave me the opportunity to explore the area and visit the nearby beaches! Orebić is a beautiful place, and the local people are warm, welcoming, and open-minded. I truly enjoyed spending time there. Thank you, Bobby and Charlotte, for having me, and I wish you all the best! I highly recommend staying with them to any future Workawayers!

I had the pleasure to visit the farm from early April to June and had a wonderful stay there :) Emma and Robbie welcome all travelers with openness and warmth, and I felt like at home after the first few days already. Wether you like animals, gardening, woodwork or cooking, the farm offers opportunities to learn and do everything. It’s a place to learn and try things for the first time, wether it is using a chainsaw or picking up a chicken. My favorite things I experienced are learning the basics of playing the guitar from Robbie and learning to plant seedlings from Emma. I already miss the feeling of coming into the main shed and settling down at the fireplace with some home-baked bread in one hand and cuddling the house cat Flambé with the other. Thank you for the lovely stay, and I hope to see all of you, Emma, Robbie, Flambé, Mable and Reg again :)

Esme was a fantastic addition to our community. She was trustworthy, hard working, and fun. She got along very well with the other workawayers, and took great care of the property. She was helpful, excited to learn, and adaptable to whatever the situation demanded. Just a very impressive person overall. I would absolutely host her again and hope she comes back some day.

Je suis resté quasiment 1 mois chez Manu et l’expérience a été vraiment géniale. Je travaillais le français avec Manu qui est déjà très forte, on a pu continué d’étudier à travers des œuvres littéraires, c’était très diversifié et toujours intéressant. La maison est belle, très propre, Diana la chienne adorable. Au-delà des cours, Manu et Nick sont adorables toujours à aborder des discussions passionnantes dans lesquelles on se perd des heures. La région est magnifique, beaucoup de choses à faire, je recommande forcément l’expérience !

It was great to have Max staying with us during a time when we had a lot to do. He was very helpful with a variety of tasks, he was open to learning new things & expanding his skills. We enjoyed working with him. We had good conversations, enjoyed his piano playing and had great time together.

I have never stayed at a place wanting to extend my time there, but with Manfred's shelter, i felt like I wanted to stay longer and longer till all the baby joeys graduate from the pouches 🥺❤️ The accommodation and food provided was amazing, i enjoyed cooking for everyone for lunch.... and dinner😂 The workload was distributed really nicely amongst all the volunteers, it is tough work, but it never gets boring. On my days off i loved visiting the city which Manfred was oh so kind enough to take me to and back from the train station! My 3 weeks stay there has been absolutely amazing and I've never felt happier... I will be back!!! Till then, sending my love to all the Roos 🦘 (especially my donkey boy webby 🩷🩷)

Volunteering at Arts & Crafts Village was quite an unforgettable 1 1/2 months for me. It was my very first Volunteering and I was shy and quiet at first. But everyone was very respectful, kind, caring, and generous. The working hours in March/April were from 9-3 pm with a one hour Lunch break in between. I mostly did a variety of different tasks every time. Some gardening, cutting firewood, helping in the kitchen, putting together orders for their products, helping with guests, workshops and doing some daily tasks. The two days off were situated on the weekend but could be taken anytime if communicated. Toyomi San is always on the go though always takes time to listen to questions or concerns. Additionally a pretty funny, knowledgeable and talkative personality, making it easy to learn something new every day. MeMe San cooked delicious food and it was always a delight to learn about and try out the handpicked mountain herbs and vegetables. Eating all these dishes were a major highlight during my time there and I gained some healthy weight! I also want to thank Aki San and Michiko San for helping me learning new Japanese words and widen my vocabulary. Of course also for having fun day to day conversation with me! During my time at acv I could also do my own arts&crafts projects. There are many weaving handloom options to choose from. So come in prepared to reply to the question Toyomi San probably will ask as in what kind of art projects you would want to do. Some things to mention when applying: acv is amidst the mountains in a valley. That makes it difficult to reach the nearest station easily and if you don’t have a car you need to communicate to leave the space to the nearest city/station. Also during spring time it was pretty cold inside the building. If you’re a cold sensitive person please make sure to come in prepped. Thank you acv for welcoming me with open arms and making me feel apart of this little village amidst the beautiful mountains of Okayama!

Christiane and her son stayed with me for a housesitting and garden-watering stay while I was away. The plants were alive and well when I returned home. Christiane baked some very nice bread and also made some special herb-based sparkling drinks during her stay. Christiane is soft-spoken, kind and polite. She seemed most comfortable when given clear tasks and guidance, rather than working independently or taking initiative on her own. I think she and her son would be a particularly good match for hosts who have a more structured and hands-on approach. Thank you both, and I wish you all the best for the future.

Dear Hosts all over the world. Flavia has been in our service for almost a month. She is responsible, punctual, reliable. No supervision needed. Do not hesitate to accept her if you have a request. She is unique.

Huge thank you to Agata, Tamir, Victor, and Mukgal for hosting me for the weeks I was in Kharkhorin! There weren’t a huge amount of guests while I was visiting as it was still early in the tourist season, so the help was mostly just in and around the house. Agata clearly outlined what needed doing and was super flexible with me creating my own schedule, doing more on some days and taking free time on others. You guys were such an interesting and enjoyable crew to get to know, and I really value the conversations we had and the things I learnt while with you. Best of luck with everything, and hopefully I’ll see you again!

We spent 7 days with Nicole and Jean Marie. They were really kind with us, we could shared work, experiences, laugh and curiosities as for their culture. The house is very beautiful with antique furniture and decoration, is like living in a museum. Also, we explored interesting places with them . They offered us delicious meals, Nicole is an excellent cooker We highly recommend all of you to stay some days with them. Vicente and Jacobo

Thomas was a kind guy who wants to share everything and very interested to be friendly with everyone. He was a guy who brought happiness to everyone most especially with the children he was so so so addicted. We can't forget the short time we spent with you. Even though it was one month, it was really a nice time and short for us. We will always be welcoming you Uncle T. We wish you nice time .

We like Lina very much. She was helpful and a good worker. Always with a smile in the face. She lent one of our bicykle and take trips on her own too the natur. On the day off, She took the bus too Lund. We work together with our workaway and it was a pleasure to bee with Lina.We did some painting, gardering and make some food together. We hope we meet again!

Amazing experience with a great family! Good memories and shared moments! It's a really great island, pretty chill, and Phonephet and his family are very friendly. It was a local experience that I'd never forget! I recommend it!

I recommend it 100%!! It was an amazing experience! I would repeat it if I come back to Chiang Mai!
