Ich habe rund 3 Wochen im Haus dieser wundervollen Familie verbracht und bin unendlich dankbar für diese tolle Zeit! Ich habe mich direkt bei meiner Ankunft super wohl gefühlt und wurde herzlichst aufgenommen. Jeder in der Familie ist super aufmerksam und alle haben sich ernsthaft für meine Interessen und Anliegen interessiert, sodass ein toller Austausch entstanden ist und ich super viele neue Erfahrungen sammeln konnte. Sehr lieb gewonnen habe ich auch die Schüler der beiden Schulen in denen Grace und Anselmo arbeiten, in denen ich einen kleinen Vortrag über Deutschland halten durfte. Dabei bin ich in Kontakt mit tollen Menschen gekommen und habe sehr interessante Gespräche geführt. Die ruhige Art der Eltern und wie untereinander kommuniziert wird lässt eine warme Atmosphäre entstehen und man fühlt sich super wohl. Auch das ich nicht wirklich viel portugiesisch spreche hat uns nicht aufgehalten und wir haben uns in einem Mix aus Englisch und Spanisch unterhalten was wunderbar funktioniert hat. Die drei kleinen Hundis haben mein Herz erobert und ich habe es sehr genossen sie auf die Spaziergänge in die Nachbarschaft mitzunehmen. Zu Fuß ist auch eine kleine Christo Statue gut erreichbar die ein toller Aussichtspunkt ist. Wir haben zusammen super schöne Ausflüge in die Umgebung gemacht, zu einer Talsperre und einer Ranch mit einem riesen Buffet wo wir zwei wundervolle Tage mit vielen spannenden Eindrücken verbracht haben. Außerdem durfte ich Teil von einem Familienfest rund um die Taufe von Verena sein, wofür ich sehr dankbar bin! Verena ist ein aufgeschlossenes, neugieriges junges Mädchen und sie liebt es alles in der Wohnung umzuräumen und neu zu sortieren, und ich habe ihr gelegentlich dabei geholfen.😂🥰 Man erreicht sowohl das Zentrum von Caieiras als auch das Stadtzentrum von Sao Paulo problemlos mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln oder Mototaxi/ Uber. Wer in Sao Paulo unterwegs ist, sollte einen Halt bei dieser tollen Familie machen! Danke! 🫶

Eva is amazing! The best help you can imagine, super kind, funny and just a pleasure to live with! Thanks you for everything Eva <3!!! Theresa and Véro

My experience with Rumi in his cabin was very special. A nice way to connect with the local culture of Sumatra from the inside, in a quiet way and totally away from tourism. We were able to talk a lot and exchange opinions and tastes. It was a real pleasure to know a culture so different from mine and such exotic and wild places with such a very good host.

First, I’m sorry for leaving feedback late. You are very kind and you taught me many things. Pottery, gardening, cooking… everything was very interesting for me. I still miss your chocolate cake, it was so good! The work was simple, like weeding and cleaning. After work, you still helped me and cared about me. You also taught me English kindly. I will never forget the movies we watched and the time together. It was very special for me. Thank you very much, Geoffrey.

I highly recommend Margherita as a volunteer English teacher. During her time at our family run course, Margherita demonstrated dedication, responsibility, and enthusiasm in teaching. She was able to adapt quickly to a new environment and build strong relationships with students of various ages. Her teaching methods were creative, interactive, and easy to understand, making the learning process both enjoyable and effective. In addition, Margherita maintained a highly professional attitude. she was always punctual, communicative, and open to feedback. Her contributions not only helped improve the students’ English skills but also brought positive energy to our entire team. We truly appreciate the hard work and commitment she has given, and we would be more than happy to welcome Margherita back anytime in the future. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Margherita for her dedication in sharing her knowledge with our students at our English course. Best Regards

Dear Paula & Madelyn, thank you so much for your beautiful words, it really means a lot to us 💛 Even though the weather was quite intense while you were here, with so much rain, you both stayed positive, smiling and happy to be part of everything, and that really made a difference. I really appreciated how you integrated into the group. It was beautiful to see how everyone supported each other, not only in the tasks but also on a more emotional level. You were a big part of that. When it comes to work, you were both very reliable and committed. You never complained about any task and always kept going with a great attitude until the end. On a personal level, you are both warm, open and sociable people, and it was truly a pleasure to share this time together. You are always welcome here, and I really hope to see you again one day 🌿 A big hug, Nimea

It's hard to leave a review for this, because it feels more like leaving a review for a relationship, and how do you judge that! Staying with Anand was, I think, the perfect way to start my India journey, he really pushed me to feel and act like a local as much as possible and I am entirely grateful for all the ways he helped me to take the first steps at understanding Varanasi, culture, music and art. The work itself was, as another volunteer put it, a bit more vibes based. To be honest with my short time, the heat, and there being a festival happening, we didn't do much work together but spent a lot of time exploring, chatting and eating the best dosa and street food in the world, for real. I think someone with real power and vision and organisational skills staying a bit longer will help push it forward, Anand has a vision, has already made an incredibly serene space in the middle of madness, and he has all the feeling to put behind it - you can tell just from the way he plays his music which is amazing to listen to, and I can't wait to come back again in the future. It felt more like staying with a friend than volunteering. What a unique way to live in and experience Varanasi, each day was a new story. Good luck with it all, and I'm going to miss Tiger.

Elisabeth is one of the sweetest and most accommodating people I’ve ever met. She is kind and checks in with you frequently to make sure that you are enjoying the work you’re doing and your overall stay. She cooks delicious and healthy meals, and will happily take requests. She is fair about hours to work and the work is very rewarding. I would highly recommend staying with Elisabeth if you want to stay in a quiet town and be close to nature.

I had a wonderful time staying with Matthieu and his family, where I was instantly welcomed into his home. Matthieu is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about many aspects of life, his travels and the world. I feel I have come away with new perspectives and learnt much from him. The land which I stayed and worked on was paradise, waking up everyday surrounded by endless lush green nature. Don't get me wrong the work can be hard, but nonetheless rewarding at the end of the day (where I took many swims in the natural spring pool). The surrounding village is peaceful and small, I met many great friends from neighbours etc. I highly recommend this beautiful experience!!!

This place was amazing! My best volunteering experience so far. As soon as I arrived I felt very welcomed and after a week I already felt like home. The food perpared by the local cooks was amazing and it allowed me to dicover new flavors. The manager, Pablo, is the sweetest person ever and is always there if you need anything. The volunteers team was also amazing and the vibe was so friendly. Thank you for giving me a home in Antigua🩷

The meditation center is truly honored to have such a wonderful volunteer. Angelica is upright, sincere, and full of a strong sense of responsibility. We have received the fullest benefit of her genuine dedication and wholehearted efforts. She is someone who continually finds balance and inner peace within herself—such a person naturally possesses an endless source of motivation, never tiring in offering contribution and love to both herself and the world. Thank you.

Smida è un ragazzo fantastico, simpatico e socievole ma allo stesso tempo discreto e riservato. Ci ha aiutato molto nella costruzione del pollaio, nella cura degli animali e del giardino piantando anche diversi alberelli che ci ricorderanno sempre lui. Abbiamo passato momenti di condivisione a tavola e con amici e parenti e ci siamo divertiti molto scambiando i nostri racconti di viaggi, è stata una bellissima esperienza averlo ospitato!

VERY FUNNY AND AMAZING RESULTS What a cool research she did on how to make a vegetable garden most adjusted to our needs: low maintenance, low need of water, totally respectful with the earth and all warms and others living there and helping, maximum no dig then, beautiful with only natural materials, adjusting to where sun is and where terrain does not slope and where nearby trees do not acidify it... she found an idea by a French man called Phillipe and it was and is amazing! we love it!!! : ) She made one example as far as she could get in the times when it was not raining, guiding us so we could help her, and now other volunteers can continue to repeat the same idea, which we are so excited about : ) : ) : ) So patient and commited: it rained incredibly a lot after the first week while she was here and she adjusted so much to help in inside things then instead of the initial idea in which she would be leading in creating the whole vegetable garden... And she has been such a respectul joyful helpful presence in every living situation: sharing a little house with another workawayer, coming then to live with us in the big house, and then staying with us at grandma´s. She can express her needs and also listen to ours and attend them really well. Really I underline how well she can express what she needs, such an important trait for living and doing things together : ) So easy to live or go anywhere with her : ) : ) : ) It was a little chaotic with a few upside down results at the beginning till choosing the easiest and best understood common language for communication. Lastly Spanish and English spoken slowly worked really well : ) My French is so rusty that I was not managing to explain her the things so well in a way she could really get the message! We solved this by changing the language and also by having her repeat in her own words what I had said. Also her making written lists of the things to do helped her a lot : ) This lady turns to gold everything she touches. Cleaning a copper teapot, a tool room, glasses of windows... so thorough in anything she does that we were always surprised by the result... amazing. Not all workawayers are so devoted to giving a 100% 5 stars result, especially in something they have no particular experience in (she was not a professional cleaner, for example, nor an expert in vegetable gardens... but she is definitely turning pro in both!! : ) .. she would research and do an incredible job. And her helping has always been in such a great attitude! Humble, present and... very funny : ) The boy immediately loved her... and said so ; ) It was a wonder to hear her play the flute through the forest. And so cool to join her in her Breton traditional folk dances... oh, she enjoys this so much that it turns into a party : ) She is full of gratitude, very generous, super kind and in search of her next life steps and purpose while discovering herself and realising that as she sees more of the world her initial ideas change a little, or a lot ; ) ... we thank her with all our hearts and we wish her the super super best : ) : ) : )

James is a very organized person. He introduced me to the culture of Valencia and took me to see Las Fallas. I had a wonderful time during my stay. The tasks he needed help with were mostly simple, and there is plenty of free time for yourself.

Sarah appeared and left like a little fairy with a magic stick. She organized and cleaned my really messy workshop like never before ! And she also opened my eyes on a peaceful and detach way of seeing problems. She is a surprising person with a very open mind and her life course is just like her, original ! Thanks a lot Sarah !

Nous sommes partis aujourd'hui de chez Ed et Claire et ce qui est certain, c'est qu'ils vont nous manquer! Nous avons passé 4 semaines formidables avec eux et ça a été un vrai plaisir! Le travail était varié, très clairement expliqué et nous étions libres de choisir nos horaires. Tous deux sont des personnes bienveillantes qui se sont assurés que notre séjour se passe pour le mieux. L'hébergement était très confortable et avec beaucoup d'intimité, le lieu est vraiment magnifique. Ce sont de superbes cuisiniers, nous avons eu droit à d'excellents repas et avons même pu goûter des choses inédites. Les soirées jeu de société sont aussi un très bon souvenir. Nous avons joué, mangé, bu du vin maison, discuté, écouté de la bonne musique et ils nous ont aidés avec beaucoup de patience à améliorer notre anglais. Nous nous estimons chanceux d'avoir eu la chance d'être volontaires chez eux et comme promis, nous garderons contact après cette belle rencontre. Merci à vous pour tous ces beaux moments et à bientôt :) Thierry et Myriam

Ronja stayed 2 weeks at the farm. She s immediately catched the rhythm of the life here. She's a real easy life person, very friendly with everybody: old friends of the village write her a letter when she left !!! It's the first time it happened ! At work Ronja is very efficient and not afraid even with physical tasks, So it was a fantastic experience at the farm and I warmly recommend her !

Вот красиво оформленный вариант отзыва на английском: --- She stayed with us for 2 nights and 3 days. She is a very cheerful, kind, and fun person to be around. She helped me with taking the children to their training sessions, and we also had a really great time talking and spending time together. She is very interesting, and it is truly enjoyable to listen to her and have conversations with her. I would definitely recommend her as a volunteer. Unfortunately, she was only able to stay for three days because her flight was cancelled and it was no longer possible to change the dates. Despite that, I would have loved for her to stay with us longer. Thank you so much for your time — you are always welcome to come again, and we would be happy to host you for a longer stay next time.

She stayed with us for 7 days, and it was truly a very warm and wonderful time together. She is a very polite, kind, and open-hearted person who gets along really well with children. I would have loved for her to stay longer with us, but unfortunately, she was only here for one week. During her stay, she was very helpful around the house — she cleaned the entire kitchen, actively participated in daily tasks, cooked delicious Mexican food, and even prepared an interesting presentation about Mexico. It was easy and pleasant to work and spend time with her. I would especially recommend her for families with children, as she connects with them very naturally and warmly. Thank you so much for this time! We would be happy to welcome her again and truly hope that next time she will stay with us for a longer period.
