Raul is a great host who will make you feel welcomed and comfortable from the moment you arrive! He has a great energy, and I really enjoyed our conversations as well as getting to meet and talk with the students at the language school. The work at the school is straightforward and enjoyable, and Raul always checked in with me at the start of the day to see what I'd like to do that day. The language school is a great way to see more of everyday Guatemelan life. Muchisimas gracias por todo Raul! Un abrazo!

Oii, tudo bão? Passei três meses como voluntário em Brasília de Minas e me senti em casa desde o primeiro dia com a galera. Pra mim, os mineiros estão entre os povos mais acolhedores que já conheci no mundo! Foi uma experiência maravilhosa, onde conheci muitas pessoas especiais. Além disso, o projeto é incrível e recomendo a todos! Obrigado, Bis, e a todos por essa experiência :)

We stayed with Prune for around 20 days and absolutely enjoyed our first workaway host! Prune makes you feel welcome and appreciates all you can do to help and everything you do for a peaceful and communal living space. The highlight of our stay were the 4 kittens that Prune took care of, before they go to their new owners. Also you can enjoy the company of some chickens and funny sheep. If you’re someone who enjoys being close to nature and doesn’t mind getting your hands dirty — whether it's working with animals, being around mud and dust, using a compost toilet, or living simply in a natural environment — this is a wonderful place to be. It’s a true farm experience, so a love for the outdoors and a bit of flexibility will definitely help you make the most of your stay. The work we did was 4 hours 5 days per week and we did some building, weeding, animal care, gardening and mostly things you don't need special skills for. Sometimes you work alone and sometimes Prune will join you. But like with everything else, Prune is concerned about how you wish to plan your day, when to start the work and is very chill and spontaneous about when things get done. You are free to have a sieste in the afternoon or sleep in the morning, or do some other stuff during the day as long as you get the work done as agreed on. Also if you're a creative person, Prune is also open, if you want to build/paint/create something. If you are looking for a mixture of absolute peacefulness and a place where you can meet friends and family of your host with good food and wine, le Mont Chabot is your place to go:) Thank you Prune for the amazing time we had and for letting us in on sailing, concerts, meeting your loved ones and fun evenings of "Trio". Hope to see you again some time!

No me pudo gustar más la experiencia en la Finca Malpasillo, para mi fue estupendo poder conocer este lugar!! Lucía es encantadora (además de muy buena cocinera), y pese a tener mucho trabajo en la finca, siempre se preocupaba de que estuviese como en casa. Las tareas que tenía que hacer eran dar de beber y de comer a los animales, regar y barrer el patio, un trabajo muy asequible y gané mucho músculo 💪🏼💪🏼 jajaja. Fui de finales de junio a principios de julio, por lo que me coincidió sin y con campamentos, y la verdad que ambas experiencias fueron geniales. Me encariñe mucho de los niños y me encantó compartir tiempo juntos, incluso pude hacer algunas actividades con ellos 🥹. La convivencia es perfectisimamente posible. Durante el tiempo que estuve, nunca me sentí sola. Siempre había planes que hacer, gente por allí trabajando o visitando con la que compartir y muchos animalitos que acariciar. Lucía me ofreció también la oportunidad de participar en las actividades de la finca y con los maravillosos caballos, que disfruté de corazón🤩. Además Granada está bastante cerca, es preciosa, digna de visitar y perfecta para experimentar la cultura andaluza. Gracias a Lucía que fue como mi hermana mayor, a Carlos y sus bromas, a Luis con sus consejos y sabiduría y a todas las personas (y animales jeje) que hacen del cortijo un lugar tan genial, os echare de menos 🧡. Me encantó poder pertenecer a esta gran familia, y aunque no me pude quedar más de 2 semanas y media, tengo claro que volveré. Lo recomiendo 100%.

Will was simply outstanding during his time volunteering at our summer camp. From the very beginning, he showed a genuine commitment not only to the activities but also to the well-being and development of the children. His ability to engage with the kids—whether through games, conversations, or quietly offering support—was truly impressive. He demonstrated a consistently proactive attitude, often stepping in to help without needing to be asked, and always with calm energy and a smile. Beyond his interactions with the children, he contributed meaningfully to the team atmosphere, offering thoughtful insights and handling challenges with maturity. It was an absolute pleasure to have him with us, and we would welcome him back without hesitation.

Ben was fantastic with the kids — always engaged, approachable, and full of positive energy. His proactive attitude made a real difference throughout the camp.

I had a great experience with Will — he was consistently helpful and always willing to lend a hand.

Mary was a kind and friendly, easygoing people, ready to help whenever i need and she is hard work and leaning very fast. She help with many things on the farm, planting some vegetable , cooking, cleaning ,harvasting fruite, Weeding. Thanks you so much for everything.

We really enjoyed hosting Renan! He understated his skills, is super warm and friendly, got along great with everyone including the children and even helped us take care of our sweet little dogs. He fit right in and everyone loved him. 11/10! We would have let him stay forever. He is a truly great guy. Absolutely recommend him to any host with no reservations. Renan take care! You are welcome back any time.

Giorgio was a great volunteer. Good energy and proactive! We recommend him !

Some times it just all works out and the was certainly the case with Eva's visit . We had a great time hosting Eva and highly recommend her . In the short one week she was here we achieved a long list of projects and had a great time with interesting discussions. Also lessons & demo's in cooking yummy dishes that I have enjoyed in past travels to Europe . If as a host you are unable to accommodate Eva please do us a favour and send her back to us . We wish her all the best in her travels and perhaps in the future we may meet again

I spent a lovely 2 weeks with Elisa and Claudia's family. The location is beautiful and great for hiking, the house itself is very idyllic. But most important was the people. The house is constantly full, with family-members, friends and workawayers. The entire family is very friendly and welcoming, and twice a day a good Italian meal is cooked and shared together. Highlight for me was the two adorable children, that are very... energetic, but also very polite and considerate. The work was hard while i was there, but it was made easier by constantly being surrounded by other workawayers.

Andrea is very sweet and with a beautiful personality. She loves animals and gave super attention to our dog and cats, a wonderful person to have around and host🩷🩷 you are welcome anytime🙂

Ahoj Patrik! 😊 Thank you for bringing such an amazing vibe to the hostel! You're one of those people who light up the space the moment you walk in! always smiling, cracking jokes, and making everyone feel included. Your sense of humor and warm personality made it so easy for guests to connect, and it honestly felt like you were part of the family from day one. You have a real gift for bringing people together! Whether it's over a chill evening (or late night) of board games, a spontaneous group outing, or just hanging out and swapping stories. Your energy helped create exactly the kind of friendly, open atmosphere we always hope for here. The common area definitely felt more alive with you around! We’re really grateful for the time you spent with us. The hostel (and the board games!) miss you already. Hope our paths cross again soon! You're always welcome back anytime! And safe travels!

Sosan and Basti are living in a remote village, but well-maintained, developed and peaceful, and very close to a nice town, where you can find everything you need. The land around the house is very big, and you can initiate many good project there. Sosan, young, but with a lot of wisdom and interesting perspective on life, and intelligent ways to express them, we had a great talks. Basti, sweet, energetic, little Samurai, she won't leave you indifferent 😀. Thank you Sosan for letting me get into yours and Basti home and life, thanks for your generous hospitality, the good food, and yami Mamaliga. Sorry for not staying more, because of this Schengen thing

From the very first day, Evelina and Vanessa arrived here with such vibrant energy — full of joy, curiosity and a great dedication. They were always up for a good conversation, especially when it came to discovering stories and learning about the cities and culture around Braga. They work hard first helping with manutance and cleaning the house built (this is the best way to connect to the house), then they did a great job helping us with social media in such a real and warm storytelling of our routines in the house. They were committed, proactive, and full of creative ideas. Their passion for content creation really stood out, and they produced some fun and entertaining videos that captured beautiful moments of daily life here. The reels made for Elton John are simple hilarious. :) The reels of one day and week here tell about this beautiful week they shared here. They also bonded with our animal friends — spending time playing with Elton John the cat and our dog Gervásio, which brought even more joy to our shared days. Their time with us was short but meaningful and they could tell this experience in such original way throw the videos and photos they made. We’re already missing you and how your presence made this place feel even more alive. You’ll always be welcome here we are waiting for your return. :) Evelina and Vanessa — thank you for everything.

A very memorable experience. I initially planned to try it for 2 weeks, but ended up staying for 12. Met interesting people from all over the world and locals that I'll never forget. Learned some organic farming and animal care too.

My time with Maria & Manuel was truly amazing. I stayed for about 10 days and loved every minute, it was a real pleasure to be part of this wonderful place. I think the profile describes really well what this place is about - i got the chance to immerse in a way of living which is more simple than i am used to, a way of living which is in close connection to nature, a very harmonic and enriching way in my opinion. I loved the refreshing shower with water from the stream under the willow tree, to help feeding the chickens in the morning, to learn about natural building with clay, to help preparing the meals in the cosy kitchen, the possibility to sleep in their cosy caravan, the walks all together in the evening through the beautiful landscape. Manuel & Maria are very kind, easygoing and open. They showed me a lot of things, explained to me the techniques of grafting trees, about how to produce yoghurt. Further I helped mulching the vegetable garden, peeling pees and plastering the bathroom with clay, although only shortly. Generally i felt very welcome, i would even say at home :). For all this, I am truly grateful to Maria & Manuel, thank you! If you are looking for a workaway stay a little bit off the grid, where you experience a simple life without the some of the "luxuries" from western world, get to know how to grow some of your food, learn about natural building, if you are motivated to work physically in a healthy and natural environment, i think this is a wonderful possibility :). PS: listening to some dope drum and bass while writing the feedback, you guys got me hooked ;)

I stayed at the hostel for two weeks, and was overall very pleased with the experience. The owners, Mikel and Irena, are extremely kind and available; you can tell they love what they do. The tasks were easy to learn and do, and organization in shifts with the other volunteers means you'll have your free time to visit the town and the whereabouts. All the other guys I met and worked with were amazing. Will happily be back in the future!

Descubrí la vida andina de Maki durante 2 semanas. Hemos trabajado a la chacra (cosecha de cebada a mano), a pastear obejas en la montaña, a la construcción de una casita (con tierra , arcila y paja). Me encantó descubrir y aprender esas técnicas ancestrales de la vida andina , es una suerte de compartir un poco de esas tradiciones. La vida al pueblo de Maki esta muy rústica , con el frío durante la noche (mes de julio), con una comida de pápas , de sopa y de granos , con poco electricidad y poco internet , y con un silencio intenso (Ch'in en Quechua). wouah que vida , que aventura! Muchas Gracias Maki para permitir a voluntarios de descubrir y ayudarte ! fabi
