Dieter and Patricia are veny nice made me feel confortable as soon as I arrived ! We shared very pleasant experiences such as gardening, woodorking, dining or walking. I've spent a month with them and honesthly the time went so fast... I did various jobs here, I've looked after the chickens, the goats and Benny, removed quiet a bunch of weeds and help Dieter with woodworking. We spend time to discuss about various things and that was great and very interesting moments. Dieter and Patricia are kind and were really present for me. We can see the valley from the garden and the view is so beautiful. I've spent a couple of hours walking in the forest, hiked in the mountains and just looking at the landscape and drinking my coffee. The bedroom is confortable, the bathroom is new and the kitchen equiped and I could use their washing machine. I also had the opportunity to visit Basel, the journey is pretty convenient thanks to public transports and Dieter brought me with him to spend a day in Freiburg. Dieter and Patricia were out during several days in a row so I've been alone during this time but all was ok ! They just asked me what I needed to cook and brought it back to me, their products are also very good (jam for example... ;) That was my very first experience as a workawayer and it was great, I can only recommand you to meet Dieter and Patricia and to spend some weeks in Kühlenbronn !

It was so good to have Lauren around..she is a beautiful person! Nice, clever, picking up all tasks and getting along very well with everybody here. Hope to see her again!

Lisa's lovely house in Hazelbrook is cosy and full of art and books and interesting things, and, along with Aloy the dog, she is a welcoming and generous host. The workload here is light; I did some land clearing and tree pruning, a bit of housework, and kept Aloy company when Lisa was at work. Lisa is a great cook and made some delicious dinners! An excellent place from which to spend a little while exploring the Blue Mountains, with plenty of walks a short train journey away.

Annette is a wonderful host who is incredibly generous and goes out of her way to help you get the most from the workaway experience. The work is light and enjoyable. Annette explains things well to ensure you understand what is expected and how thing work and where everything is. The location is amazing and the perfect place to relax and unwind in nature while still being accessible to nearby cities via the local bus route. Annette provides lots of food options and cooked lots of lovely dinners. She is also a very interesting person and a joy to spend time with. The horses, dogs cats and chickens are all lovely and easy to interact with and I am just incredibly grateful to have had this experience with such a lovely genuine and kind host.

I’m really grateful for amazing time I have spent with Pauline and Niek. It was my first time with Workaway and I couldn’t imagine a better place! From the beginning Pauline was very communicative and provided much useful information about how to get to the nearest city where she picked me up. Both Pauline and Niek are very knowledgeable and cheerful people. We were talking a lot about the area and shared our stories every evening. It was beautiful and I was able to feel like a part of the family. I was provided a lot of privacy as I had my own room and bathroom which was very comfortable. Pauline and Niek are excellent at cooking and the food was delicious! I was happy to help them with preparing meals and learned how to make pasta. We tried cooking with many edible plants and it turned out to be fantastic. I was able to practise my English all the time and also my Italian with a really sweet neighbour, Andrea. We mainly worked in the morning hours in the garden. We did a lot of things from planting new flowers to cutting the grass. I really enjoyed it because there was always a beautiful landscape around and no rush. I learned many new names for the plants in many languages. Our tasks were also painting the furniture, making pasta, sometimes cleaning the swimming pool and cleaning after meals. We spent afternoons together, always doing something interesting which I really loved. We explored the area, went to the mountains, prepared the fireplace and played board games. I really recommend this place to nature lovers! Pauline and Niek are lovely people who like to share knowledge and talk about life. I will definitely remember the days spent together with a smile on my face and hopefully I will return one day! Thank you once again Pauline and Niek! It was lovely to meet you and spent beautiful time together :)

Pia was a wonderful Work Awayer! We really enjoyed hosting her. She was very kind, polite, clean and personable. We had many enjoyable conversations on a variety of topics and I even asked her for advice a couple of times because she handles herself so well. She is very experienced with kids and it shows! She was very confident with my daughter and also shared insights about best practices from the industry of childcare which I found helpful. Pia was also very self sufficient. I offered her rides a lot but there were plenty of times she was happy to just walk to town or back and this made it quite easy to host her. She also has experience with cleaning and was very helpful with that as well. When she left I asked her if she could kindly clean her cabin and to my happy surprise she said she had already done it! She takes initiative, is respectful and I highly recommend her.

I had a truly wonderful time staying with Ines and Doug, and their lovely dogs. I felt extremely welcomed, made to feel at home, and relaxed in their presence. Their place is a complete gem. It felt like staying in an intimate paradise. It was a pleasure to help them with daily tasks such as walking adorable Snoopy in the natural areas around. Gardening and painting was thoroughly enjoyed by myself, and I had another workawayer staying at the same time which made it all even more fun. I would highly recommend their stay for anybody willing to help out, and spend time in their company and little oasis! I would not hesitate to visit them again. Thank you so much, E x

Max IS very nice and friendly. He was working hard the few days he was here with his Camper. He IS learning fast to be more constant and disciplines...thanks for ur help and nice energy, hugs

I had such special time with Sem and Halil (and two most adorable dogs Pablo and Vadi)! Halil was so helpful and keen to share his knowledge, both practical and theoretical. We learned many useful skills like how to set up water irrigation systems and take care of vermicompost. The workshop he has built is a gem. Sem taught us delicious Turkish dishes and was always happy to help me with my Turkish practise. She also makes beautiful jewellery and gardening! The place is built with such love and surrounded by amazing mountain views! The guesthouse which served as our accommodation is beautifully designed and has everything, including a washing machine and really comfortable beds. The work we did was mostly physical and outdoors, for example clearing waterways, weeding the garden, helping to set up the pool for the summer season, restoring steps and watering trees. For our days off we were dropped off in town or the local bus stop and were free to explore the area, always with lots of good recommendations though! Sem and Halil also took us to see the Saklıkent canyon and invited us to join a friend’s wedding which was beautiful. I felt so welcome. Thank you so much for sharing your home and dinner table with us so generously! I’m looking forward to see what life brings you next and hope to visit you again :)

We had a great time here. The hosts are incredibly nice, welcoming, and generous. We really enjoyed helping them clean up the garden. We ate so well! The place is perfect, and we loved the pool too and the hot tube. A big highlight of our stay was when they took us to visit the famous Ya Ha Tinda Ranch near the Rockies. It was an amazing experience ! They are truly lovely people. Thank you so much for everything! Victor & Ewen

I spent a little over a week with Hedwige, Maurizio, Elia, and Michel, and from the moment I arrived I felt warmly welcomed into their family. Hedwige always explained the tasks clearly, which included cleaning, gardening, light maintenance work, and helping with various day-to-day activities around the house. I really enjoyed the shared meals, the interesting conversations, and the opportunity to experience their way of life. The house and its surroundings are beautiful, and I particularly appreciated being able to explore the area by bicycle, which they kindly made available to me. Hedwige and her family were very friendly, generous, and easy to spend time with. Their home offers a peaceful environment and a great opportunity to learn about a sustainable lifestyle while contributing to meaningful projects. I am grateful for the experience and would recommend staying with them to other Workawayers.

Marek was a great volunteer, amazing photographer, super element in the group of volunteers that was here. He is cautius when working with wood projects, i could rely on his abilities. He did as well hard jod, carrying rocks, getting old wood usable again. He cooks very well as i likes to share and please people. Thanks for your help 🙏🏻

cicely increíble, :) mucha energía siempre buena vibra recomendable ayuda bastante el español es muy bueno, pero creo que lo mejor es la buena energía :) recomendada

I had a lovely time with Paula. I got to really improve my gardening skills and I thoroughly enjoyed transforming the veggie patches and filling them with fruits and veg. Paula made delicious food and I had the opportunity to visit new places and hear a beautiful choir in a church. I am most grateful for having gotten to stay with her and wish her the best in her future endeavours.

Fue un gusto contar con Mathys apoyo. Siempre mostró una actitud amable, colaborativa y una gran disposición para ayudar en todo momento. Su compromiso y buena energía fueron muy valiosos para el equipo. ¡Muchas gracias por tu contribución, siempre bienvenido!

It was a wonderful experience to stay in Sicily. I stayed with another workawayer, Konoka, and we enjoyed a lot there! We mainly did gardening and DIY. DIY was my favorite work and Silvio taught us in a clear way. He is so professional at DIY and I could improve my skills. He is also a great piano teacher. I enjoyed his piano lesson. Every dish he made was amazing. We loved to experience the new taste through his dishes. I respect his curiosity. Palermo is a great place to enjoy the sea and the atmosphere of Mediterranean iland. It is very energetic sometimes with chaos which I loved. I will definitely come back to Sicily. One week was too short to spend enough time with Silvio and his lovely family. Thank you for all of your hospitality!

Rebecca stayed with me for one week at Caroline . Although it was during the school summer holiday and our regular English activities were limited, she was always willing to help with anything that was needed. Rebecca brought a positive attitude, kindness, and flexibility to the community. She helped with daily tasks around the homestay, interacted warmly with guests, and was always happy to lend a hand whenever opportunities arose. What stood out most was her willingness to contribute, even when there were fewer organized activities available. She adapted easily to the simple lifestyle of our fishing village and showed genuine interest in local culture and community life. Rebecca is respectful, responsible, easy-going, and pleasant to be around. She was a wonderful guest and volunteer, and I truly appreciated her support during her stay. I would happily host Rebecca again and highly recommend her to other hosts looking for someone who is friendly, reliable, and eager to help wherever needed. Thank you, Rebecca, for being part of our community, and I wish you all the best in your future travels and adventures!

Rachel is an absolute jewel who spent four months with us from November through March. During that time she worked on all kinds of projects from fire to gardening, and was a consistently steady and reliable team member, becoming familiar with a range of tools and land management practices, and she joined the crew for a broadcast burn as well as pile burns. Kind and very smart, she is an astute observer of people and situations, and this meant that she was able to quickly understand and learn assignments, and could work well with anyone. Outside of work, everyone enjoyed getting to know her and going exploring or having fun together, also in the kitchen -- Rachel developed her talent for baking while here, and was generous with her time concocting and sharing many incredible goodies! She has a quiet determination that has already served her well (congrats on the dream job!) and no doubt she will keep doing wonderful things. Don't hesitate to accept her if she asks to join you! Thanks for everything, Rachel, you're loved and missed!

Tomás and Alma stayed with us for a little over four weeks. When we spoke to each other for the first time online, we immediately felt like these people would be a great match. A couple weeks later, when they arrived at our house, our suspicions became reality!! During the time they stayed with us, they helped in the garden (building some fences, staining wood, trimming bushes, cutting down ivy, painting our kitchen, cutting down a tree, and more), they cooked and cleaned, and most importantly: they integrated into our lives in a helpful, kind and loving way! Tomás and Alma are conscious people with great communication skills, which makes it very easy to be around with. In the end, as a host you’re welcoming ‘strangers’ into your house. In this case, they never felt like strangers and became our friends straight away. Both are creative in their own way and participate in their own pace and energy. Tomás is a great, great language teacher and makes the best arepas in the world!! Alma is great at making connections with others, she makes amazing scones and her enthusiasm lifts up any mood. We hope to see you again soon guys!

que du bonheur de recevoir Sebastian: toujours responsable dans les tâches effectuées, il travaille sérieusement et intelligemment, son aide a été très précieuse et efficace dans le jardin, à la restauration d'un mur à la chaux ou dans tous les autres travaux d'entretien ; de plus il sait s'adapter rapidement aux autres et sa gentillesse et son humour participent grandement à la cohésion du groupe. Sebastian fait partie de ses rares workawayers dont attend le retour avec plaisir !
