Naz was with us for a week, as our house was in the middle of renovation and she did not like gardening as much, and this was the only job we really needed her to do. I can not blame her as it was too hot and gardening is a tough job. ,We came to agreement that is better for her to travel and see more places than to spend her vacation doing what … read more

My experience with Vesna and her partner Willi was unfortunately disappointing. I have used several travel and volunteering apps, hosted travelers, and met many wonderful people along the way. This is the first time I am writing a negative review and I’m sorry to do so, but I feel I need to be honest for future volunteers.
I was planning to stay … read more for two weeks, but I decided to leave on the fourth day. I am not counting the day when I didn’t work.
The main task was weeding the garden for four hours a day, than watering the garden by carrying buckets of water. I found the work quite physically demanding, especially on the first day. The following day, I asked if I could do two hours of weeding per day and perhaps help with some different tasks as well. Vesna discussed this with her partner, and they explained that they mainly needed help with weeding, although I could also cook and do some cleaning. They also said that if I didn’t want to do the weeding, I could leave and look for another Workaway.
I found this response quite upsetting, especially as a solo female traveler who had already made my travel plans around this stay. I accepted the two hours of weeding and also offered to cook and clean. However, I felt that her partner was unhappy with this arrangement, and his attitude made me feel uncomfortable. I also found Willi to be quite reserved and distant, which made it difficult for me to feel relaxed around him.
That evening, their friend came over and we all went out for a drink. I paid for the drinks because I didn’t want them to think that I was taking advantage of their hospitality.
After that, I continued doing four hours of weeding, although I worked more slowly than I had on the first day. I also felt that my work was being monitored quite closely, which made me feel uncomfortable and self-conscious.
There was also construction work taking place at the house. (a wooden house was being built, and later Vesna mentioned that the wall between the living room and kitchen would also be knocked down) This had not been mentioned before I arrived. Vesna apologized and explained that the construction had only recently started. I could understand that this situation was stressful for them and that it kept them very busy, but the construction and the mess also affected my experience.
Another thing I think would be helpful to mention on the profile is that Vesna smokes inside the living room. I personally didn’t feel comfortable spending much time there because of the smoke, so I mostly stayed in my room.
Regarding cultural exchange, I felt that our routines and expectations were quite different. I didn’t feel that there was much interest in sharing or learning about different cultures and dishes. Overall, based on my experience, I didn’t feel that the cultural exchange aspect was very strong. I felt more like a worker who was there mainly to complete a specific task rather than a traveler being welcomed into a cultural exchange. We didn’t really spend much time together or do activities together, apart from having a drink that one evening.
I do want to mention that I believe Vesna was trying to be friendly and kind, and I appreciate that. She was very kind in asking me if there was anything I didn’t eat before I arrived. They also drove me to Požega, which I really appreciated. The weather was very hot, and I could see that they wanted to do something nice for me and make things easier.
However, unfortunately, I didn’t feel comfortable during my stay, and I decided that it was better for me to leave early. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t recommend this place to other volunteers, although I understand that everyone can have a different experience and that this may simply have been a mismatch between us.
I hope this feedback can be useful for both the hosts and future volunteers.

My stay with Lazar was amazing. It was my first Workaway experience abroad, and I couldn’t have asked for a better start. I stayed for a week and I didn’t have to do any demanding work. Since Lazar is interested in learning languages, we studied Turkish together and I also cooked and washed the dishes.
His garden is beautiful and I really enjoyed … read more

Nazlican stayed with me for six days, and it was a real pleasure having her around. She helped out with various tasks around the house, and even helped me improve my Turkish by giving me daily lessons (she’s an excellent teacher - patient and really good at explaining). And then there was her cooking: she prepared several traditional Turkish … read more

It was such a good time we spend with Nazlican. She was teaching Lalitah Turkish daily and cooked, cleaned and did a bit of outdoor work. It was very easy to host Nazlican, she is easy to be around, have a calm presence and asks when there is something she is missing and can take initiative by herself too. Nazlican felt like a part of "the … read more
