What a wonderful couple - so warm and full of love. Hard working and friendly. Omar and Doris formed a special relationship with our children and we were all very sad to see them go. We would welcome them back whenever - we adored them!

This was our first experience volunteering with Workaway and the experience could not have been better. John and Linnea are lovely people, they welcomed us in their home and made us feel like a member of their family, we shared many incredible moments with them and the children.

About our activities, they were basic daily chores, like taking and picking up Bror from school, walking the beautiful and loving dog Ragsdale, helping to prepare some dinners, cleaning the house sometimes and helping in other activities, but all very easy to do and nothing heavy.
We will never forget the incredible dinners we had, where we were able to exchange life experiences and share with their friends.
Thank you very much dear family for receiving us and making us feel part of your home.

We spent a month with the Hopkins family in Frome. It was such a pleasure to meet this lovely and wonderful people. We really felt like we were a part of the family, we enjoyed our time with the boys and Idun, such a beautiful and funny little baby.
We were able to visit a lot of cities during weekends, we visited Bath, Bristol and we even went

We did some gardening, painting and cleaning up the house. We also helped them with the children, picked them up from school, cooked sometimes for dinner and we loved to play with them and did some awesome Art.
We also had a good time to walk around the park with Ragsy who is such a funny dog.
We met some wonderful people there, we had amazing meals, Hoppy is such a good cook and as French girls we were so lucky to have fresh bread directly baked by Linnea.
Thank you again for everything, we hope we will meet you again one day. Wish you all the best for the future 🤗🥰

I really felt at home here in Frome, such a gem or a workaway. I was able to feel apart of a fantastic family and also meet some great people during my stay. The odd jobs never felt too much and, moreover, I enjoyed helping. All in all, I can't recommend the Hopkins enough and will look forward to meeting you all again soon 😇 x

What an amazing couple - we absolutely loved having Joy and Edu to stay. They were so kind and helpful - and quickly became members of our family. We would have them to stay again any time!
We loved having Tathy & Rafa be part of our family for a month. They built special bonds with the kids and helped out around the house and garden. Thank you! always welcome to come back and visit
We spent about one month with the Hopkins and what an amazing experience! From the beginning they made us feel like part of the family and we felt very welcome and embraced by all of them.

Thank you Linnea for all the tips about what to do in the area and for taking us to see Glastonbury, Nunney Castle and the pumpkin festival, we are very grateful because you always tried to show us what is cool around the town. John, thank you for all the delicious meals and for always making us feel at home. I hope all your innovative projects are a success.
About our activities there: we arrived during the children's half term and we were able to spend a lot of time with them, playing, drawing, going to the park and cinema and many other activities. Hans and Bror are energetic kids so be prepared with plenty of ideas to entertain them. Idun is the most beautiful and friendly baby I have ever met, I had the chance to take care of her alone during our first weekend there while the rest of the family was traveling, it was a challenging experience but I am grateful for the trust that Linnea deposited on me.
We were able to help with the day-to-day rush, cleaning the house and shack, cooking, going for walk with Ragsy the dog and doing some outside work in the garden. It sure was a great place to improve our english, with all the help and patience of the family. we also learned about sustainable lifestyle and will try to follow some of the tips when we are back home.
We will always remember you all fondly and hope to see you again one day. ❤️
Warm hugs,
Tati and Rafa.

For a first experience as a workawayer, we couldn't wish much better.
In 5 months we shared so many good moments, diners, histories, recipies, emotions, life experiences. We really became part of the family. At work, we learned together techniques and have acquired a lot of skills, pointing stone walls, tiles, building shelf, sanding, painting,

We are very grateful they let us stay with them during lockdown and also letting us be part of their projects in the lovely town of Frome.

What an absolutely amazing experience. Even though this wasn’t our first Workaway stay... it felt like it was for us. The Hopkins family has heart, open minds, and open arms.

Hoppy and Linnea are both on the go kind of people, love being moving and taking in their town. Frome is adorable and beautiful all in one, we’re sad we couldn’t see more of it because of stupid lockdown! But they love living in Frome, and that’s a very refreshing thing to be a part of! Their boys Hans and Bror are precious, smart, and will keep you on your toes! Ragsdale the pup is the oddest looking creature in the world but he was fantastic and loves his back scratches haha Overall, we would recommend this family for a definite individual experience that will be hard to top!
Hoppy and Linnea... we can’t thank you enough, from the bottom of our hearts... for such an amazing and unforgettable experience you showed us. We are forever grateful. And Hoppy especially thank you for giving us the honor, of being a part of the Celestial movement. Out of control rad mate. Big things to come!
