My experience with this family was wonderful. The work was easy and the instructions were clear. I enjoyed Estonian dishes, a typical Estonian sauna and beautiful times in Estonian cities that I couldn't visit my last time in the country. I'm so grateful to know them and I hope I can meet them again when I come back to the beautiful country of Estonia. Highly recommend. Thanks Kai, Jaanus, Joosep and Jonathan for this experience

My stay at Monboucher was a lifetime experience. Axel and Carole are wonderful people and incredibly kind hosts. For me, it was much more than just a Workaway; it was an amazing experience. I learned a lot about the region, its fascinating history, and its delicious food. They are so welcoming and friendly that you feel at home from the very first minute you arrive. The atmosphere they create is warm, genuine, and unforgettable. Another special thing about Monboucher is that staying there feels like living inside an art gallery. The walls are filled with beautiful artwork, and every room has its own unique character. From almost any window, you can sit and admire the view for hours, enjoying the peace and beauty of the surrounding landscape. I think a part of my soul was left there. 😄 Thank you, Axel and Carole, for everything!

We stayed with Jeanette for about a week and had a lovely time! She welcomed us from the beginning and even invited us along to meet her friends for a dinner party (which was delicious). The work was mostly in the garden and we did a few hours a day of mowing, weeding, collecting sticks, trimming bushes and she would always make sure we were doing okay. She also made sure we had time to see things around and took us to Lake Entrance to see seals and to see koalas and kangaroos!! We spent nights watching shows, laughing (she's a very funny woman), talking about life and eating her delicious food :) Would definitely recommend Jeanette to anyone travelling around Gippsland :))

Wow, wow, wow... It's hard to find all the words to express how much this workaway has touched me, influenced me and stayed with me. Two weeks filled with laughter, wonder, weeding, singing, building, baking, playing (!) and so many new experiences. Hōri and Steffi made me feel like part of their family from the moment we first wrote to each other and it was simply the sweetest time. I loved spending time with Matai-Nuku and Momo-Aio and watching them explore life and learning from them was absolutely adorable. Purerehua, Marama and Paterörchen :') are just some of the new words I learned. It's rare that everything fits so well for everyone and it just clicks.. and I left with a heart full of love, gratitude and bittersweet feelings. Thank you for everything. I will always think of you and I hope to see you again very soon! ❤️

By far the best volunteering experience I've had. So much that I'm afraid to try new ones, the standard is so high now. The job is not only easy but enjoyable. The description is very clear and accurate, you will have to make a few beds and keep the place tidy, but most of your time will be socializing with guests. Even when it's not your shift you will want to socialize anyways. Kanoon and V know how important socializing is, so they make sure that the volunteers are happy so we can have a good time and make the guests have a good time too. Just read the rest of the reviews, everyone that comes has a great time, I came for two weeks but ended up staying five, left and then came back for 4 more. Thank you Kanoon and V for everything, I will remember this time forever!

Tom and Lucy stayed with us here for four weeks, and they were an incredible help throughout their entire stay. They are a highly motivated and hardworking couple who always looked for ways to contribute without needing much direction. Whether it was construction work, maintenance tasks, or helping with digital projects, they approached every task with enthusiasm, responsibility, and great attention to detail. What impressed us most was their initiative. They constantly found work that needed to be done and were very independent in completing it. Their contribution was genuinely important for Ochorio, and they helped us make significant progress on several projects. On a personal level, Tom and Lucy are open-minded, friendly, and easy to be around. They brought a positive energy to our home, got along well with everyone, and quickly became a valued part of our community. We are very grateful for everything they did during their stay and would happily welcome them back anytime. We can highly recommend Tom and Lucy to any future host.

I stayed with Hassan for 1 week in May and all I can say is wow, what an authentic experience! This was my first Workaway and my goal was to really get the feel of what it’s like to live like a local in the Moroccan desert. And I think I can say I definitely got the feel for it! As a solo traveller I can truely say I felt completely safe for the length of my stay, not only in the bivouac and camp but also in the town and the long trip from Marrakech to Mhamid. During my stay in the camp, there were no guests and tasks were limited because of it. However there were still daily tasks to do like cleaning the bathroom area, the kitchen and dishes, the carpets and sweeping common areas of sand. Hassan was very relaxed and didn’t really tell us what to do, so being proactive and making yourself busy is necessary for your day to be filled. Like a lot of the reviews have mentioned, if you get bored easily or expect luxury… this is not the place for you. It’s simple living and really makes you appreciate the little luxuries we have in our lives. In saying this I really think anyone and everyone should stay here for a period of time, because it genuinely gives you a different perspective in life. Hassan was an amazing host, he was kind, knowledgeable, open minded and always laughing and making jokes with us. He always made the BEST food and the tea was the best I’ve had in Morocco. I really enjoyed my time in the camp and the cats and kittens were just the cherry on top for me! Thank you Hassan for hosting such a memorable experience! All the best

Katja was a pleasure to host. She is a very proactive person who enjoys working on technical projects and feels especially comfortable creating, improving, and building things. She has a great ability to think of easier and more efficient ways to do tasks, as well as choosing the right materials for the job. During the time she stayed here, however, most of the work required was related to the land and outdoor maintenance rather than technical projects. Despite that, she was always highly motivated, worked hard, and showed a great attitude every day. She also has a wonderful positive energy and is always smiling, which made working together even more enjoyable. She decided to stay at a nearby campsite to have a bit more freedom regarding facilities such as the shower, as she didn't want to invade my personal space. Even so, she still cycled here every morning to help, arriving early and ready to work. It was truly a pleasure having her here. I would happily host her again and hope we will have the chance to work together in the future.

She is incredibly polite and balanced perfectly following instructions with taking her own initiative and working independently. We shared wonderful, deep conversations, and I truly appreciated her thoughtfulness, her freshness, and her joy. Having her here was a absolute pleasure, and she is welcome back anytime!

Alex and Chris came to say our property for five days. They were the best possible people to have on the property For a Workaway exchange. They are super organized. Hard workers. Take initiative And pride and their work. They are also super easy to communicate with and flexible. Highly recommend them if they inquired to stay on your property. They also have the most beautiful car they are traveling in. Very light people on the Earth. Thank you again! Josh Kwame Asterix

I had a great time staying at Jack and Joannas. They are both such lovely, calm, intelligent and welcoming people. I instantly felt welcomed and at home. We got to join in with the monthly community meeting, meet their son and daughter-in-law and share amazing cooked dinners every night, always with a interesting topic to talk about. The work was never too hard! Jack always made sure that the two other volunteers there and I were more than comfortable! We had a great time weeding, planting, cracking hazelnuts, a really good laugh moving the chickens, collecting fruit, and eventually (after alot of trial and error!) learnt how to preserve the fruit. Joanna is an amazing cook! Thank you so much for making vegan for me every night, baking bread and allowing me to use your sewing machine! I really appreciate it. If you're interested in sustainable living, learning about gardening, permiculture, community and the environment, I'd definitely recommend volunteering here! Questions were always answered in a genuine way, and we always felt we could ask if we never understood anything. Thanks so much welcoming me into your lovely home :)

Dingyun was charming and very easy to chat to and settle in. We enjoyed our time spent while here with us. We wish her all the best on her travels Jill

John, thank you for stepping in and hosting me for 4 days at such short notice. I really valued the calm and quiet atmosphere of your place, which was exactly what I needed. The work you asked of me was light, straightforward, and very easy to handle with my background in physical labor. I truly appreciate you opening your doors when I needed a spot.

Marcelina volunteered with us for over a month and it was truly a pleasure to have her as part of our team. From the very beginning, she showed a great attitude, learned new tasks quickly and was always ready to give a hand whenever extra help was needed. She approached every responsibility with enthusiasm and reliability. One of the most special things Marcelina brought to our community was her offer to teach yoga classes several times a week. These classes became a highlight for many of our guests, who absolutely loved them. Her warm energy and ability to create a welcoming atmosphere made each session a memorable experience. Beyond her practical contributions, Marcelina was really a joy to have around. She connected easily with both guests and team members, bringing positivity and kindness wherever she went. Her presence made a meaningful difference and she quickly became a valued part of our community. We honestly couldn't be happier with the time she spent volunteering with us and would highly recommend her to any future host. We are incredibly grateful for everything she contributed and sincerely hope to welcome her back again in the future.

(Matteo) also known as Piero ❤️ and Clara have been the best surprise of this year! They came with the idea to stay on a short term but they ended up with us 3 full months! We did together so many things, from planting trees to re setting anew a huge vegetable garden. They took every task with good interest and every challenge with the right spirit and always succeded! Moving huge trunks to the pile for the winter stoves, carrying and spreading tons of manure, planting seedlings and weeding, the list is infinite! Besides the farm jobs, they always helped at keeping the common spaces tidy and clean, helped at cooking and their presence was always interesting and joyful. We enjoyed talking, sharing experiences and future visions. They've been the perfect guests and we wish all the best for them because they really deserve it wholeheartedly 💚. Thanks so much amigos and hoping to meet you again 🙏🏾

Thank you Rachael and Guy for letting me stay a little longer! It was a really lovely first Workaway experience. I really enjoyed the balance between the daily tasks, having time for myself, and spending time together. You made me feel welcome from the start and I quickly felt at home. Although I have to admit that I probably spent more time with the chickens and the dog than I did gardening… 😄 Thank you for your kindness, the meals, the chats, and for making this such a positive experience. You’ve definitely set the bar quite high for my future Workaway hosts! Wishing you all the best, Maud

Having Layla here at the farm was great. She was fabulous such a wonderful young woman to host in terms of support, work and company. Layla is really competent, helpful, honest, considerate, kind, mature, direct – a straight forward communicator – which I really appreciated. Layla is proactive, respectful, flexible, strong and really understood the concept of true volunteering and giving back. She was respectful around all the animals here with consistency, kindness, adaptability, safety and boundaries. She is an intelligent, hardworking, problem solving young woman , who took direction really well but was also able to work under her own volition too. Layla was wonderfully independent and easy to have around, while also being great company and we had some really thoughtful quality conversations together. She was also very aware of and respectful of my occasional need for personal space and downtime, which I really appreciated. I very much hope she comes to visit again one day, and I would happily recommend Layla to any host. Thank you for everything, Layla, really hope we get to meet again.

Jonny and Toshi were with me for a week in June and I enjoyed having them to stay. We spent most of the time working in the garden and they did a great job helping to manage it. They are a lovely couple - I enjoyed hearing about their adventures and future plans. I don't think I've ever met two people who were more tidy - even the dirty washing at the end of their stay was folded neatly.Their time finished a bit abruptly when I introduced two kittens to the family, but I've nothing but admiration for a lovely couple. I wish them good fortune during the next stage of their travels and would welcome them back anytime.

Algunos meses despues pero "mas vale tarde que nunca", Cecilia es una persona increible artisticamente y de mente abierta. Esperamos poder recomendar de una manera franca y fresca como persona, colaborativa e intuitiva, se hizo bioconstruccion con madera y arcilla. Agradecidos por la ayuda en un momento clave!

She brought calm energy, curiosity, kindness and many nice conversations into our everyday life. She helped with all kinds of tasks without complaining and adapted quickly to a simple rural lifestyle. What we will remember most is not only the work she did but the feeling that she truly enjoyed being here, spending time together, sharing stories, exploring nature and becoming part of our little community. Even now we often mention her and remember moments we shared (and yes — the dogs remember too 😊). Thank you, Prem, for choosing Pecka and leaving a small piece of yourself here. You will always be welcome back.
