I took so much time to give a feedback, i’m so sorry. I went to Eyeries, to Pawel and Emma’s home 7 months ago, in may. I have some difficulties to find my words to describe this experience. honestly, I enjoyed so much my time there. Pawel and emma are such beautiful people, kind and patient with their workaway people. The second I arrived, I immediately felt at home. Eyeries is a beautiful place next to the sea, with beautiful people. I spend some times doing trails enjoying several views, lakes, mountains. I´ve learned so much things : boats renovation, garden building, canoë, percussion skills etc etc. It was a great human exchange, I was there for improving my english, but I also met incredible people, with simple life habits and who are open-minded. If you’re interested to build a workaway project and you’re reading this, I have just one advice : do it. I am actually very nostalgic of this time, I just want to say thank you so much for welcoming me as you did. And thanks for the jam sessions!! It was nice moments. Marion

I stayed with Raewyn and Chris for a little over a week, and it was my very first Workaway experience — and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed and felt completely at home. During my stay, I helped with garden work, avocado picking, and house cleaning, and everything was always explained with patience and kindness. They are such warm, caring people, and I’m truly grateful for the openness and trust the showed me. The property is absolutely beautiful and a very special place. Thank you so much for everything; this experience will stay with me for a long time.

Jacob & Isabel were eager to help and very enjoyable to have as guests, they got a long well with the other volunteers, they were helpful, social, positive, respectful and generally very pleasant and happy people to be around. We are thankful for their visit and would highly recommend them as volunteers for other hosts.

My Experience in Fusagasuga was nothing short of amazing. Sebastian is an awesome Host and a great Person who showed me the city, welcomed me into his home and has a lot of really interesting ideas and projects which he will show you with all of his heart. The school was really nice and the teachers took good care of me so I had a varied and very interesting insight into the school system while practicing English with the students. Fusagasuga is a small but very vibrant city which offers beautiful nature, lots of sports related activities, fun shopping malls and lots of delicious food. Bogota is very close but I never went there because there was so much to do in Fusa. Also the People there are so nice and open hearted and are often very interested in talking with you because there are not a lot of foreigners in Fusa (it's great for practicing Spanish). I felt very comfortable during all my stay in Fusa and can really recommend it to everybody who wants to have an authentic Colombian experience.

A heartfelt thank you to Kakyah and the entire Min Camp staff for such a beautiful experience. My friend Luchi and I chose this as our first-ever volunteering opportunity, and we truly feel it was the best place we could have picked. The hospitality and kindness from everyone were phenomenal. We learned so much about Malaysian culture—from the language and the delicious food to their way of life. We loved every bit of it and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a true immersion into Malay culture. Our tasks included gardening, helping move some equipment, and assisting the staff with activities for school children visiting on weekends. We also helped with some light cleaning, but nothing was ever too exhausting; we did everything with pleasure because we were always treated so well. We are leaving with happy hearts and will forever cherish the two weeks we spent with all of you. Sending you much love and all our gratitude. Beverly & Luchi :)

Thank you Stefania! You were very polite and kind . You helped around the house and in the garden with great enthusiasm and interest !We hope to see you again soon!

Florine & Louise were fantastic. Super friendly and engaged, hard working, smart... The list goes on 😁 We really enjoyed hosting them and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others.

Fue una experiencia increíble. Estuve en la fundación durante un mes. Me encantó compartir tiempo con los adultos y los niños de la fundación. Regar el jardín con ellos o darles clases de inglés. El trabajo era muy variado y interesante. Muchas gracias a Martín que nos hizo descubrir la cultura del país (con los asados y los alfajores) ¡ Voy a extrañar a la gente y el lugar un montón !

A delightful family to host. They will be welcome again any time. Will is an expert artisan, something pretty rare these days and was super helpful.

Sebastien was good company and extremely helpful. Any future hosts will be lucky to have him. He a very competent artisan and great problem solver. Thanks Sebastien.

We stayed under three weeks with Jenny & Freddie. We could tell they are all set up for workawayers: we had a confortable bedroom with a kitchenette and a bathroom that are separated from their living quarters so we enjoyed our privacy. The work load is split by a coffee break accompanied by fresh pastries and lovely chats, and at the end of the working day, we shared lunch. Those moments together were an excellent opportunity to get to get to know them. Jenny's love and care are shown through her delicious cooking, always different with plenty of vegetables and adapted to our diet. Freddie is great to work with, he always equipped us with tools, protective gear and instructions. He's also open to take our suggestions and patiently explain everything. Both of them are adorable and our time together was the highlight of our stay. I should add other benefits: - flexibility! We could take days or time off when the weather was great to go climbing and adjust our working hours - communication: all our needs were met super quickly - healthy snacks: fresh eggs, pecan nuts, tons of citrus - Jolly: playful and adorable dog We wish you the best with the renovation, it's certainly inspiring to see your dream come true. Until we meet again 😊

Daniela stayed with us for one week in December. She was a pleasure to host, always ready to lend a helping hand. She has a positive attitude and completed her tasks skillfully. She played well with our young children, was curious about our lives and said yes to any event or adventure we suggested doing. A great workawayer and lovely houseguest.

Thanks Lauren for your help and yuor feedback! Working with Lauren has been an absolute pleasure. Not only is she excellent at what she does, but she is also one of the kindest people I’ve met. Conversing with her is always a highlight; she has a wealth of fascinating stories to share that make every interaction enjoyable. She is wonderful company and a truly great person to have on any team. I highly recommend her!

Ho trascorso due mesi a casa di Daniele e andarmene è stato difficilissimooo. Ho passato un mese meraviglioso in sua compagnia, e poi un altro mese da sola a prendermi cura del suo giardino e dei gatti mentre lui era in viaggio. Daniele mi ha accolta con un sorriso che non abbandona mai il suo volto, e mi ha fatto sentire a casa fin dal primo momento. Sono così felice della bella connessione che abbiamo creato. Ogni semplice momento della vita quotidiana, dalla colazione alla cena, è divertente con lui. Grazie per il tuo buon umore e la tua fiducia, grazie per aver condiviso così tante storie meravigliose, i tuoi progetti pazzi e i tuoi viaggi, grazie per le risate che abbiamo condiviso. La tua compagnia è stata preziosa. Mi sono sentita davvero a casa e accolta anche con suoi amici. Ho imparato tantissimo sulle piante tropicali che coltiva. L'agriturismo è un luogo molto confortevole, pieno di magia e di storia, dove la creatività di Dani e la forza della natura vivono in armonia; è un posto estremamente ispiratore. Je reviendrai très vite en Sicile, et en attendant, je t’attends en Espagne cette année ! A presto Dani 🙏🏻 mi manchi! 🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱

Hermosa gente...de esa que te gustaría encontrar todos los días...recomendamos ampliamente !

Tamara was an outstanding Workaway volunteer who brought energy, professionalism, and genuine warmth to everything she did. Her English teaching with our staff was clear, engaging, and thoughtfully adapted to different levels, making a real and lasting impact on everyone’s confidence. With the children, she was creative, patient, and endlessly enthusiastic, leading fun activities that kept them motivated and happy. She showed great initiative, reliability, and a positive attitude every single day, always going above and beyond what was expected. We would welcome her back without hesitation and highly recommend her to any host looking for an exceptional volunteer.

We enjoyed having Cleo and Stu volunteer with us. They are a lovely considerate and kind couple who were able to get on with any task they chose off our long to-do lists. All jobs were completed to a great standard so we were ready to move on to the next plans for each space after they left, especially the vege patch and orchard. A great job was done of mowing and weed eating which is such an ongoing chore. By the time they left, the garden and orchard areas were much improved and looked so good. I loved the fact they spent time with our little pack of greyhounds who absolutely love visitors and new people... (especially at dinner time!) and that they were genuinely happy to be around them. I also loved that I could just leave them to choose the jobs they felt they could handle and manage their own time which was a real bonus. I'm glad they took opportunities often; to visit the many attractions we have in the area, despite Cleo nearly being knocked out by a falling tree at kerosene creek! A NZ travel story for your grandkids! I recommend Cleo and Stu to anyone considering hosting this competent couple. Happy and safe travels onwards!

Entrare nel loro sistema è stato un salto in una piccola società parallela che porta in sé elementi della società comune e altri completamente opposti. Ci vuole uno sguardo umile e non giudicante per entrare nella loro casa. Io sono grata di aver toccato, anche solo per poco, l’anima di alcuni di loro: sguardi potenti, cuori grandi e fragili. Vedi la materia e sei sicuro dello spirito che li circonda. Qualunque sia la scelta che ha mosso questi animi a unirsi, sta portando alla creazione di una piccola oasi magica. Un’oasi non chiusa alla comunità: ammiro la loro voglia di aprirsi al mondo con la forza del volontariato. Il gruppo non è l’unione di individui singoli: sono un plotone, a tratti militare, a tratti un’entità magica che si muove insieme. Vivono per l’altro, perx il loro bosco, il loro lago, la raccolta e la donazione del cibo e per i mattoni che danno vita a progetti futuri. Vivono guidati da un centro che unisce materia e spirito. Farne parte è un esercizio di ascolto e osservazione. Per me è stato un esperimento: vado avanti con consapevolezze maggiori. Fatevi attraversare da loro, mettetevi da parte per poco tempo. Lì, dove il tempo è fluido e circolare.

What an experience! This is a magical place, amazingly beautiful and sorrounded by jungle. This includes stunning sunrises, sunsets and views and also all kind of animals. If you expect high standards in terms of luxury or hygiene just be aware that here you are in the middle of the jungle, so things get dirty easily and animals get inside your house, beacuse actually you are in their home! You will be able to enjoy watching tucans, lapas, sloths, all kind of monkeys, iguanas, dart frogs and also snakes, maybe scorpions, and of course all kind of insects. It is important to be able to adapt to this to enjoy your stay. In terms of the work, it is very chill and easygoing. Our main tasks were cleaning duties and keeping the cabins ready for the guests, general maintenance around the place (gardening, manual labour, creating and painting some parking signs), translation in jungle tours and welcoming guests, and of course the main renovation at the little house. They are flexible with schedules and if you communicate nicely with others you can follow your own rythm and needs while contribuiting to the group. Lis and Danger welcomed us to their home and it was an interesting and beautiful cultural exchange for wich we are grateful. Allison was an amazing host and had great communication with us during all of our journey. She helped us with many things, made sure everything was rolling and working for everyone and the vibes were always friendly and fun! We will always cherish this place that welcomed us to Costa Rica and brought us good times, adventures and growth. Arnau and Rita :)

We had a wonderful three weeks with Taku, Hannah and their baby. From the very beginning, they made us feel incredibly welcome at their beautiful home. They are both so kind and easy to be around, which made the experience even more special and we shared a lot of thoughts, laughter and quality time together :) The sunset bouldering session, the sunset beer/cocktail evenings and swimming unter the waterfall will be long lasting happy memories! Helping out with the chalets was fun and we learned a lot along the way. We were also able to explore the surrounding, during hikes, a visit to a local coffee farm and the town trips which were also very exciting. We are very grateful for our time with Taku and Hannah and can wholeheartedly recommend them to any Workawayer looking for a meaningful, friendly, and enriching experience. Hannah & Nils :)
