I can only say thank you for the wonderful time I spent there! Will and Jan have a beautiful project filled with great energy. They make you feel at home from the moment you arrive.
The work is enjoyable and varied, so it’s never boring. Plus, Will is an amazing chef, so the food is always delicious, and the conversations are very interesting.

The accommodation is one of the best I’ve ever had on Workaway, making this host a special experience. The place is full of love and beautiful energy.
So, I highly recommend it!
It was a great experience to host Miguel. He stayed with us a little over a month and worked on a lot of tasks like harvesting the olives, cleaning the land from all the branches, selecting the firewoods, cut and stack them. Planting trees. Sanding, painting and cleaning on our lodges. He even started the infrastructure for Permaculture on our

Together with the other WorkAwayers they digged ditches to contain the rain we hopefully will get this winter, put branches and leaves in it to improve the soil with plant material.
We experienced Miguel as a very kind, modest and patient person, very well mannered and interested in a lot of subjects which makes him a very nice guest at the table during our meals and coffeebreaks. Miguel was always offering his help for cooking or preparing the table and several times he cooked us a lovely dinner. I can recommend very much to host Miguel!

I stayed at Jan and Will's little paradise for three weeks and it was a wonderful time! I was received with a warm welcome and this warm atmosphere continued throughout my stay. The work was full of variety and was interrupted every day by a nice coffee break. Fun and interesting conversations were had during every meal and we always found an

I am grateful to Will for the wonderful conversations we had and Jan for the great motorcycle ride together and his help with my motorcycle. I would definitely recommend accompanying and helping Jan and Will!Vous pouvez seulement contacter les workawayers avec une adhésion active.

Yfke joined our team of WorkAwayers at the recommendation of a friend that stayed with us as well. And we were very happy Yfke joined! She fluently blended in with the others as a very social and easy-going personality. Not only that, also in her work, Yfke was very hard working and noticed next steps herself. She arrived after the harvesting of

Other works were sanding, painting and cleaning of our lodges, planting trees, digging ditches for the infrastructure of the starting Permaculture on our property, taking care of the small kitten the WorkAwayers found on the street. The little one is doing perfect now and will stay with us :-)
And last but not least, together with the other WarkAwayers she cooked for us all several times an excellent dinner.
We can recommend very much to host Yfke!

Jette stayed with us for about 3 weeks. She, and the other WorkAwayers helped us tremendiously with a lot of works at our olive grove.

I stayed with Will and Jan for about three weeks and it was absolutely amazing.
From the first day on I truly felt welcome and enjoyed the time spend together at lunch and dinner and the stories they had to tell.
The work was interesting and varied so there was barely a day that felt like the other and on the time off there is so much to see and

Dimitra stayed at our place for 2 weeks and we enjoyed her company very much! She is a hard working young woman, ready to do any job that is required. She is independent, takes initiative and responsibility. She is modest and respectful. Sometimes she needs some time and space for herself (which is completly fine of course!), Dimitra will inform

Will and Jan were such amazing hosts! Riyadh and I were so happy with our workway with them in Foiniki. We spent two weeks working around their beautiful property doing various jobs, painting sanding, gardening and more! ☀️
During our time together, we had very interesting conversations about life, and loved learning more about Greek and Dutch

We absolutely loved this workaway and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to discover this beautiful part of Greece and meet some wondeful people!
We will miss Will, Jan and all their animals very much! ❤️❤️
This morning Lucie and Riyadh left our place. Already we and the dogs & cats miss them very much!

It will be very difficult for new people to equal that ;-) They are a very happy and eager-to-learn couple and did a lot of
