I hosted Marnie for about two weeks and we had a great time together. She took care of the things that needed to be done and there’s nothing I can complain about. Marnie was friendly, reliable and willing to support wherever needed. Her positive attitude contributed to a great atmosphere for both guest and staff. She’s welcome to come back anytime!

Audrey stayed with us in the month of May, she helped us out with cleaning and general maintenance of the hostel. She was proactive, and would go above and beyond without being asked. She's independent, she has her own vehicle which made things easier for her, this also meant she could bring others on adventures - needless to say that she got on quite well with everybody. We would definitely recommend Audrey to any future hosts

You can't wish for a better volunteer! Azura has been the sweetest person to have around, highly skilled, perfect work ethic- she did such an amazing job! I can only recommend her. and would be happy to welcome her back anytime. 💖

Our first-ever Workaway experience in France was everything we could have hoped for and more. We had an amazing time, learned so much, and felt genuinely welcomed from the moment we arrived. A special thank you to Jane, whose kindness, generosity, and incredible knowledge of the local area made our stay truly memorable. Her passion for the history, culture, and hidden gems of the region added so much to our experience and helped us appreciate the area in a way we never could have on our own. We leave with wonderful memories, new friendships, and a deep appreciation for the Workaway community. Thank you, Jane, for making our first Workaway such a positive and unforgettable experience!

Tobi is a beautiful human being! He stayed with us for 10 days and it was an absolute pleasure to have him. He is generous with his time and presence, mindful, cares for details, curious and very easy to live with. We had a few projects in mind for him to help us but we had an unexpected visit from the construction guy and finally we could tear down a wall we wanted to take out for many months...so most of the first week was focused on that. We all learned together and he was stoked with all the tasks we did and proposed him to do. He also helped us finish our last bed of the garden, transplant some veggies there, clean the chicken house, cut the grass/bush and prepare a future green filter/garden next to the chicken house. So yes, plans changed and he just adapted to every new turn of events with a big smile. We had deep conversations and also made jokes about mundane things... very easy going! We also practiced yoga together in the city and he joined Pol for an openning of a friend's new business and got along with Pol's friends easily :) It was a blessing having him with us. Thank you Tobi for being how and how you are!!!

We really enjoyed our time at Inken’s place helping her get the downstairs Airbnb apartment ready for the last 2 weeks. It was fun putting our renovation and repair skills to good use. The apartment we stayed in was lovely and Aljezur is beautiful. The outdoor deck and pool were a highlight for us! It’s also only a 30 minute drive to Lagos. Inken is a warm and kind-hearted person. It was really nice to be around her calm and positive energy! We enjoyed the opportunity to get to know her more throughout our stay. Having a hire car was very handy so we could explore. Walking to the shops and the beach is doable but not super practical, so we’d definitely recommend having a car. It was cheap to hire a car from Lisbon but Lagos is also an option for a little more. Before we left, we got to share a lovely dinner with Inken and another Workawayer. We also enjoyed the opportunity to cook a meal together during our stay. We also loved having Inken’s fur babies around. We would come back in a heartbeat and wish Inken all the very best!

We spent a month with Rachel, Chris, Elliot, and Oliver and their wonderful animals. Of their menagerie Ivory the chicken, Shadow the three-legged dog, Joey the cat, and Jaque the horse became close companions of ours. They made it very hard to say goodbye. Home for the month was a renovated pigeoneer — one of those charming old stone towers you see dotting the French countryside — and it was the perfect little base for everything that followed. The work was varied and satisfying: building a compost bin and a new muck heap, stable shelving, hauling gravel for the driveway, repointing the old farmhouse wall, pruning trees, and helping out with the horses and chickens. Nothing felt overwhelming — just good honest outdoor work with a sense of real contribution at the end of each day. The area is stunning. Historic villages and châteaux practically around every corner. Bring a car if you can — it opens everything up and makes exploration so easy on days off. Rachel is warm and genuinely great to work alongside. Her boys were so polite and helpful and Chris was a great conversationalist. If you’re looking to slow down, get your hands dirty, connect with animals, and soak up the French countryside without any of the noise — this is your place. Thank you Rachel and family for allowing us to have this experience. With appreciation, Kevin & Ella

I had such a wonderful time with this family, and honestly, it was a truly special experience. They are without a doubt some of the kindest, happiest, and most genuine people I have ever met. Valeria is an amazing mother, Ezio is a wonderful person, and Elia… oh, he is simply the sweetest, gentlest little boy you could ever imagine 🥰 They made me feel at home from the very first day. Even though I only spent a short time with them, I already felt like part of the family, and I’m sure this is only the beginning of our friendship. The vegan food was always delicious, and every day was filled with warmth, kindness, and positive energy. Besides being truly wonderful people, Ezio and Valeria have created a beautiful home surrounded by nature and full of love. Their values, outlook on life, and way of living are inspiring and deserve great respect. I genuinely felt welcomed and cared for throughout my stay. They are open-minded, thoughtful, warm-hearted, and incredibly generous people. Thank you, guys, for our trip to the adventure park, for the lovely evening with your friends, and for all the beautiful moments we shared together. I’m leaving with wonderful memories and I truly hope to see you again very soon 💛

they were a Lovely couple.. A big help, not only in the garden, but also they showed off the skills using tools to extend the cabin/accommodation. They are always polite and friendly and keen to get on with things. both friendly and keen . I can recommend both Amber and Marty to any other hosts. to other hosts ; Should you need any more recommendations /Confirmation , please contact me directly. thanks again and good luck with your travels .. Mark and Kana.

If you want a real authentic experience of Bedouin life in Petra this is an amazing place to go! Every day we had a delicious breakfast at Ghassab’s sister’s house and then went into the silent hills of Petra either with the sheep or goats. Herding the sheep is more chill/easy (just a couple hours in the morning and afternoon to take them up the hill and back) and herding the goats is better for people who like hiking for the whole day and are confident on rocky/steep terrain. You also take a lot of breaks and sit in the silent beautiful environment while the goats eat. It can be hard to understand instructions sometimes but it’s fine, Norah is an incredible woman and you will have a real experience not a tourist one! I even saw Norah deliver a baby goat and I carried him home. I felt welcomed straight away by Ghassab and very comfortable as a solo woman - completely disagree with the previous person’s feedback here. The volunteer house is really nice and comfortable and it was brilliant sharing the experience with other volunteers. In the evening we returned for a delicious dinner. I would highly recommend this experience ⭐️

We had such a great experience spending a wonderful month there in the northern wild of Norway. Britta and Marco were excellent hosts, everything went perfectly ! The island is pure gold, so much birds and animals, and the weather was really something with the eternal sun. The balance is perfect between work and freetime : we worked in the morning, had lunch alltogether and then could use the afternoon for whatever we liked. We usually had dinner together as well, each cooking on a different day. We spent a bit of time with other workawayers only at first, as Britta and Marco were on vacation. They were very kind to let us use their car to go to Tromsø or hiking, and to have trust us enough to let us come even as they weren’t there. It was great to also have time with them before we left as they are really gentle and welcoming people, always caring and interesting to talk to :) We couldn’t be happier about this workaway experience, and would recommand it without hesitation! Thanks for everything and hope we’ll meet again! :-) PS: sauna was great! And we already miss the waffles

Great job

Wonderful experience. Welcome back anytime. Great help!

This was absolutely the most unique experience I ever had - the project was so much more than contributing to help building the school and washing facilities! From the friendly volunteers&staff members, the incredible lovely people & resilient community, the integration in the Philippino culture and discovering the island - all of it made my experience and journey there even more unique! Feel blessed, and even though the work is intense, it is absolutely rewarding!! Returned home with recharged energy and a full hart! Keep up the amazing work everyone with AH&H is doing!!

Such a delight, courteous, thoughtful, gentle caring nature, works really hard. A total pleasure meeting Q and getting to know him. Hope to be friends for a very long time.

The time I spent with Pol and Agata was truly wonderful! They’re both so lovely! And their dogs, Selva and Caliu, are so cute! I felt right at home straight away and I’m so grateful for all the great and inspiring conversations. And, of course, the absolutely delicious food! Pol tried to vary the tasks as much as possible and showed me several things. I have learned and did so much that I’d previously thought I couldn’t do! It was great fun! Outside of work, we went to a yoga class in Vic and to a bar with friends, and at the weekend I went hiking and got creative. The house is set in beautiful nature and is the perfect place to unwind. I was allowed to sleep in their van and absolutely loved it! Saying goodbye to my new friends was hard, but I’m sure we’ll see each other again someday. Thank you for everything! ❤️

I had a wonderful time staying with François! He welcomed me with great kindness and perfect courtesy, and even my two cats instantly took a liking to him (and the feeling was mutual!). Unfortunately, the Workaway had to be cut short earlier than planned, but even in handling this change, François was extremely sensitive, fair, and respectful. The house is beautiful and the hospitality was fantastic. I absolutely recommend him to any volunteer: he is an exceptional host with a big heart.

The time I spent with Stefania will be shorter than planned but only because of some personal issues I have to deal with on my own. But be sure she's a great workawayer and don't hesitate to welcome her! Once you explain her what you want and need to help you, she will do it very well, whatever you ask her. You also can be in trust with her and let her manage with the tasks, even if you're not there. I left her alone in my house for my job and I never have a problem. Her two cats are so nice and friendly, already two trues travelers and she takes well care of them and their stuff to keep the place clean 🙂. Very friendly, kind and always ready to help you, I thank her a lot for everything and also her comprehensive mind. 🙂

We stayed with Colette at her beautiful home in Passavant and thoroughly enjoyed both our tasks and conversations over meals we cooked together. As a host, Colette is extremely welcoming and flexible, and our tasks varied day to day around the house and garden, from weeding and garden maintenance to cleaning in the house and preparing for her guests. We established work expectations early on, so we were able to build our schedules however we wanted, and were free to take breaks throughout the day. A highlight of our stay was our time spent with Colette and the other workawayers, specifically over shared meals, comparing our cultures and discussing our interests. We felt incredibly welcomed, especially as first-time workawayers, and couldn't recommend this experience more.
