We arranged for William to come stay in our farm about a month ago. We modified plans as we was still traveling around to accommodate his schedule. He was supposed to arrive tomorrow. After trying to contact him a few times to arrange pick up, he just sent me a message saying he had made plans with another farm and is now not coming, saying “he will contact us in the future if there is an opportunity”. We were already counting with his help and declined many other candidates in the meantime. Truly unprofessional, and an abuse on hosts and our goodwill. I am at a loss for words on how appalling this behavior is.

Ashleigh took our house by storm and had an incredible ability to make the very best of her stay with us. She is fun, dynamic, kept the house clean and brought Olivia the deepest connection and tools for growth in the most fun ways. Watch out world! Ashleigh is out there to take it by storm! Much gratitude for this unforgettable time together. 🍀

Will was a great help during his stay with me. He was hardworking, reliable, and always completed the tasks he was given with care and dedication. He helped with painting work around the property and did an excellent job. He was punctual, responsible, and maintained a positive attitude throughout his stay. He followed instructions well, worked independently when needed, and was always willing to contribute. I appreciated having him here and would be happy to recommend him to other hosts.

Our time at the lodge in Riske Creek was an experience we will never forget. From the very first day, Brenda, Kurt, and Kris made us feel welcome. What started as a Workaway stay quickly turned into something much more—we found a second family. Brenda is one of the kindest and most caring people we have ever met. She works incredibly hard, always looks after everyone around her, and somehow manages to stay positive and cheerful no matter what the day brings. Kurt is a true problem solver with a wonderful sense of humor. There seems to be nothing he cannot fix, and he always has a solution ready. Kris is hardworking, easygoing, and great to be around. Together, they create an atmosphere that is warm, relaxed, and genuinely welcoming. Our work was varied, interesting, and rewarding. We cleaned and prepared the beautiful guest rooms, helped with cooking and baking, served and looked after guests, made and stacked lots of firewood, cared for the property, and assisted with the many different tasks that come with running a busy lodge. No two days were exactly the same, which kept the work enjoyable and engaging. One thing we especially appreciated was the flexibility. We always had a lot of freedom in organizing our work and schedule, which allowed for a healthy balance between helping at the lodge and exploring the area. The Chilcotin region is absolutely stunning, with endless opportunities for outdoor adventures and some of the most beautiful scenery in British Columbia. More than anything, however, it was the people who made this place special. We arrived as Workawayers and left feeling like family. Saying goodbye was incredibly difficult, and we are already doing everything we can to return one day. We cannot recommend this Workaway highly enough to anyone looking for meaningful work, wonderful hosts, beautiful surroundings, and an authentic Canadian experience.

I had the most amazing week at Alena's place. Fushiogami is a most beautiful piece of Japanese country side. The house provided for my stay was very large, really clean and had everything you could possibly need. During my stay I spent some time walking Willy and Billy the VIG (Very Important Goats) which was my favorite wwoofing activity by far. Willy and Billy are the cutest and most gentle pets, I really enjoyed caring for them. the other tasks were dusting around the house (when rainy) or helping around the garden or rice fields. I was also very glad to spend some time with Alena, who showed me and advised me on the surrounding possible activities. I will for sure come back if I ever get the chance to travel again to Japan. Thank you so much 🙏🏼

Ellie and Max stayed with me for about # weeks. It was my first experience with a couple , and what a fabulous experience it was. They are respectful delightful. kind and efficient. They are both welcome back anytime. Highly recommend them both. thank you to them both.

If you need some peace and quiet from busy touristy areas on Oahu this is a place where you can connect with calm nature. You have a nice secluded area on your off time to read, cook and write. Walter and his family give you the tools to do work around the land and were flexible when needed to make some schedule adjustments. The work was not overly demanding but be prepared to sweat a little! They give you food to cook and there are fresh fruits on the property. I was only there for about 3 weeks but I would go back if the opportunity arises! If you want to landscape and do cool projects on the land, don't hesitate to stop by on Oahu. They were nice to lend me a bicycle to get around the island but if you want to do super long distance road biking you might want to get something while you are there. Wishing the family all the best! - Shayne

Después de hablar con vari@s voluntarios que querían venir y dejar claro que a diferencia de todo este tiempo, las condiciones iban a ser muy incomodas por las remodelaciones del lugar. Tu James decidiste venir y me has ayudado de una manera que agradeceré toda la vida, tu y Benoit ... Para quien lea esto quiero que sepa que James es una persona muy especial, dinámica, colaboradora, fuerte, y que es la persona que cualquiera quiere tener como visitante, las palabras me sobran para agradecer tu ayuda, esfuerzo y dinamismo, mis dos últimos visitantes me han devuelto la esperanza en la humanidad y que cooperando avanzamos y crecemos más... recuerda siempre que aquí en colombia tienes una amigo y una casa donde volver. Mi amigo... A-P

My friend and I stayed for 2 weeks at Alec's place, and a had a wonderful time - we couldn't have felt more welcome and at home. Alec is a great guy, really kind and funny. We became friends very quickly. Most of my work was helping construct a section of the roof, while my friend painted a mural. Alec is very conscious of only having volunteers work the stated 2 hours. I definitely recommend staying here. Thank you so much Alec, we'll miss you and all the dogs!

Although leon was with us for not to long, think we got lots done together….. great flexibility helper…… some good laughs wherever it was needed or just because he goofed around…..thanks for your help !

First of all i we got to apologize for the delay in leaving a review….. busy busy it slipped…. What a great time we had, at least how i see it, Gesa just fit in like we knew her for a long time…. Great conversations! The movie nights and yes, her help was much appreciated…. Although working here has always been flexible , adjusting work to weather or what felt best ob how to tackle a project…once we got a plan, Gesa was right on pulling her weight…. In her free time she enjoyed doing her own thing, getting together again for dinner….. We met 2 x after she left us already and are looking forward having Gesa over any time as a friend of the family….bibi misses her already

Staying with Rob at the castle was something really special. It feels a bit like stepping into another time, the whole property is truly impressive. I helped Rob with some paperwork, which was a nice change from outdoor/garden work. At the same time, seeing all the administrative work behind the scenes does take a little bit of the “magic” away from the place. Rob really makes sure that you are well taken care of and have everything you need in terms of food and comfort. One of the highlights for me was seeing little blue penguins in the wild for the first time 🐧 You also have quite a lot of freedom in how you organise your workday, which I really appreciated. One thing to keep in mind: you should definitely not be afraid of dogs, as the Border Collie Pup loves giving kisses 😄

Hannah and Simon were a wonderful addition to our home and project. They tackled some very hard physical jobs for us, including digging a path and helping with concreting work, and they did an excellent job throughout learning and applying new skills. They were hardworking, reliable and always willing to help wherever needed. They were also incredibly accommodating and flexible when our plans changed and other people needed to stay on longer than expected. Their positive attitude and understanding were greatly appreciated. Beyond the work itself, we thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them. We shared a couple of lovely dinners together and genuinely enjoyed their company. It felt more like having friends stay than Workawayers. Thank you , Hannah and Simon, for all your hard work, kindness, and good company as well as being able to share good news about their new addition to your whanau. We would happily recommend you to any future hosts.

I feel incredibly blessed to have met Yvonne & Danny 🥹 They literally went above and beyond to take care of me and make me feel at home. I couldn’t have asked for a better home away from home. There were so many wonderful synchronicities and things we had in common, and I felt like we were meant to cross paths. The home itself is gorgeous, the work was just the right balance of giving me something to do whilst remaining low pressure. They are humble, generous, compassionate souls and I feel the whole world has opened up to me now knowing that you can find wonderful friends wherever you go. I feel certain that we will meet again, and I hope to be able to return the favour xx

I'm so glad that I didn't miss the opportunity to spend such a special time at The Beautiful Lab with Vaidas and everyone there. The experience offered the perfect balance of meaningful work, freedom, and good vibes. I loved being part of such a warm and inspiring community while also having the chance to explore and enjoy the local area. Living in Tuy Hoa and experiencing Vietnam and its culture in a way that goes far beyond regular travel taught me so much. From the very beginning, I felt safe, supported, and genuinely welcomed. Vaidas, Danny, and Timmy were always there whenever I needed help, and by the end of my stay they had become much more than hosts — they had become friends. Thank you all for making this experience so memorable. I wish you nothing but the best, and I truly hope our paths cross again someday.

Kélig and Emilien stayed with us for one month and were an absolute pleasure to have on site. They are highly skilled handymen, very efficient, and consistently delivered work of an exceptionally high standard. They completed double the expected workload, often going beyond what was asked without needing supervision once instructions were given. Their ability to understand what needed to be done and take initiative was outstanding. Communication was excellent throughout, and they worked seamlessly as a team while also being independent, responsible, and fully trustworthy. Kélig and Emilien are a happy, delightful couple, and we would gladly recommend them for any similar role or prospective farm work. I am also happy to be contacted to provide a reference.

Vincent is a really nice guy, who is very willing to work- he works hard, and is happy to do a lot in a day. He does need detailed instruction for jobs, as rural work doesn’t come natural to him. We had some interesting conversations.

It was great experience with Marcela, we are really glad to have her. She is such kind, helpful and cheerful person. She is always willing to help us. She is with great personality , easy going. We highly recommended her. Always welcome back🙏🙏.

We had an amazing time staying with Kathrien and Sven and can highly recommend this Workaway experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt very welcome and quickly felt like part of the family. The work was fair and enjoyable, and they always appreciated our help. We were provided with delicious meals every day, even on our days off, which was incredibly generous. The accommodation is excellent, with a private apartment, bathroom, and kitchen, offering plenty of comfort and privacy. They also went above and beyond by helping us find work in Australia and even sold us an awning for our car at a very fair price and helped install it. Oscar, their lovely dog, was an added bonus! The property is peaceful and close enough to Gympie for shopping and anything else you might need. Thank you both for your kindness, generosity, and all the great memories. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again someday!
