Both of us are fit and healthy which would allow us to do most kind of physical work.

Tess: I work as an Occupational Therapist in Australia and have a lot of experience working with children a range of support needs. Before I was an OT, I worked as a disability support worker with adults where I facilitated activity groups in the community. Throughout my studies I had the opportunity to do a lot of volunteer programs such as helping at camps/schools. I have also worked many years in both hospitality and retail.

Jared: I have recently completed my PHD in chemistry. I have worked as a university teacher which is a particular passion of mine. I was the president of a student club which involved arranging student events and activities. I have also been involved in leadership programs, that have involved mentoring of younger students.

My friend Alison and I had a great stay at Karen’s property.
Karen is a conscientious and thoughtful host who has a lot of experience with hosting workawayers and guests.
Alison and I had a shared room which was very comfortable.
This workaway is organised and follows a nice routine, after working time, Alison and I had our own down time until… read more

Tessa came to volunteer here with her friend Alison and they made a great team. They happily tackled a wide variety of tasks and were excellent company at meal times and trips out. I hope she enjoys the rest of her adventures in Europe.

Dejado por el workawayer () para el anfitrión (Share a cultural exchange ...)

We truly enjoyed our experience living with Helen and Mike for 2 weeks! We arranged this workaway with our friend Alison and also had the company of two other workawayers, Tom and Christiana who we were also very glad to have met and shared the experience with! Helen and Mike are absolutely natural hosts. The house was always a calm and friendly… read more environment and we were made to feel at home from the very beginning. Helen and Mike care to build relationships with the workawayers and provide a true cultural exchange. We had so many good conversations with them - they are interesting, smart, funny and well travelled! They both also have teaching backgrounds. We enjoyed so many nice meals together at home and were also able to go with Helen and Mike and the other workawayers out to dinner a couple of times and to a fiesta in Gandia. We went to one of their gigs that we would absolutely recommend it if you are staying over a Sunday! We also appreciated to have down time and have our own space for relaxing that we could use when we weren’t working.

Helen and Mike have lots of different projects going on mostly with their property renovation. As Alison described, we did cementing and labouring/weeding in the garden and could help out in the kitchen if we weren’t outside. Mike always took the time to explain how to do everything. As the work for us was mostly physical, it is tiring if the weather is warm. Helen and Mike would always make sure that we were really well fed and looked after and also were mindful if the weather was very hot etc. Helen is a fabulous cook. As a vegetarian, I was so thrilled to enjoy such a variety of great food and Helen was really happy to teach us her dishes. Mike also has a number of guitars around the house that he let us use in the downtime. It was great fun having little music sessions together and being able to learn from someone with lots of experience, patience and good humour.

The property itself and the surrounding village is also beautiful, and would be suited to those that love being around nature and mountains. We enjoyed exploring the area on one of our days off.

Helen and Mike left such a great impression on us. Two weeks did not feel like long enough! We learn so much from Helen and Mike and we hope we can visit again. There will always be a home for you guys in Australia! Xx

I shall call these our 4th and 5th workawayers - we are still newbies. I shall feedback on Tess first, she is a fun and sensitive soul who is sensitive to people who are around her, great company and caring. She is very committed to finishing a project even if that means "overtime". Over two weeks with us her physical strength increased so she now… read more

I feel very grateful to have met Nathy, Danny and Nelai. They are very generous and open minded people. I stayed for one week but in the short time I felt very welcomed and at home. I really enjoyed the experience of working and living together. All the very best for your future projects and see you again one day. Thank you so much! Tessa x
