Commentaires, feedbacks et évaluations Workaway

My partner and I stayed with Anna for three weeks. Anna is a lovely, quite and attentive person. She has so much knowledge about activisme, plants and natural builiding, it is a pleasure talking to her. My partner is interested on how comunities are build, and I am architec interested on bioarchitecture, Anna knew that so she invited us on a thanksgiving dinner on a eco comunity, we had the best time there! So much to learn! The farm is gorgeus and very comfortable. We cooked a lot and we shared a lot of meals. There is a big garden where we harvested some vegetables to eat. We feed their lovely bunnies and chickens. We even saw new born bunnies! Also, we helped on house repair and garden tasks sush as harvesting, planting, and some more. It was a good amount of work. Anna was cool and flexible with the dates and time schedule, which was nice to us because our plans changed and we had to leave a few days before we thought. Staying with Anna was a great experience for us, we are very gratefull to her and we recommend her very much as host!

I will never forget on this amazing experience when I could see amazing volcano every morning, hear birds singing every crack of dawn, observe the green envinronment with plenty of cows and horses, spend the time in finca where the history breaths... and moreover, to be the part of the family and community of people, that provides you the best conditions to feel fine in Colombia, supplies you with uncommon experiences and trips to other places around and takes care of your satisfaction. After those 11 days that I spent in Penones, I gained experiences that I will never forget. I could watch the utter connection between members of Oscar's family. I also didn't miss the chance to see classical life of Colombian farmers that only in the second house part of finca. They were everytime opened to talk although my Spanish wasn't sufficient to have deep dialog. Generally, the openess of people to talk to you, to be insterested about you and your country, is enormous and for volunteer it is so warming. I don't know to whom I can thank you that I could come and spend some time here and to be the volunteer. It was magnificant time that influenced me very intensively and showed me many ways that I'd like to follow in the future. Big big big thank you to all people from finca.

it was my first host in New zealand and what should I say? it was wonderful. Don gave me a little introduction in the construction Terms before I started my job in Hamilton. we built a Deck and a Pergola together and it was so fun. The dinners were awesome and pretty delicious. It seems like here is everybody welcome and it doesn't matter how good your English is or which kind of help you can offer. Thank you to the whole family and especially Don and Davina :) I'll never forget the first host in NZ.

I had the best time at Mallín Colorado!! I stayed for a month, helping out both in the restaurant and outdoors. The shifts varied in time of day and tasks so even after a month the work didn't feel boring. Since there's a restaurant, there's always amazing food around (I ate way too much of the homemade bread). Most importantly, everyone is super nice and welcoming! I was able to practice my Spanish and get to know the other volunteers and employees. There are a ton of tours, hikes, and other activities in the area, and after a month you really feel like you know the region. I miss everyone already!!

Shirley and Danny are a really kind and fun couple, and made me feel right at home for the two weeks that I was with them. Their house and yard (and dog) are absolutely lovely, I saw many deer grazing on their lawn, and the surrounding landscape is stunning as well. Working in the yard was very enjoyable and satisfying and I'd like to think I picked up some useful skills along the way. I really cherish the time I spent with them and I would highly recommend this experience.

We were super happy to have Julie with us. She is a a very smart and friendly person. She made sure that everyone had a good time. We were happy to have her with us longer than initially agreed.

I stayed with carl and his family last minute for a week. It was an amazing time and I had a lot of fun cleaning their beautiful house. Carl showed me around whenever he had time and I really enjoyed talking and spending time with him. Would definitely recommend staying with them!!

Angus helped me teaching my class for 10 days! He is very talented and helpful guy , I felt him as a member of my family:) Even he helped me on my house chores except teaching. I showed him Uzbek traditions and lifestyle! Angus one thing you should , consider that you have a family in Uzbekistan!

The moment I arrived at Helen's and Eugene's place I felt like home. Not only due to the lovely place they live in, but majorly beacause I initially felt their trust and genuine warmth towards me. Helen offered me to ride her horses whenever I wanted to, as well did she give me the chance to socially connect with her friendgroup of horseriders, which gave me much joy. We even got to compete at a local competition together! The work was more than manageable and my hosts where always very flexible with work hours. Throughout my stay I could feel that Helen and Eugene tried their best to make my stay a memorable one as well did one of their neighbours, whose horse I got to ride. The community I met there is just amazing and supportive and I am so incredibly thankful to Helen and Eugene having opened up their doors for me. You gave me so much during these weeks starting with late night discussions and monopoly games up to spontaneous lifts and warm jumpers xD I'm wishing them both just the best! Thank you for everything :)

I had a fantastic time! Norm is an absolute legend. If your interested in Trout Fishing there isn't a better guide to teach you. He is honest, respectful and kind. Maili is the sweetest dog you'll ever meet, she is always up for playing fetch.

two amazing people, they worked hard with all their passion and strength! they have never given me any problems and have always been attentive and understanding! it was a wonderful knowledge you will always be welcome! greetings from me and Alessia! (we also met by chance a few days after finishing the experience and it was a lot of fun)

I stayed about 5 weeks with the Alessi family and that was an amazing experience ! I was involved in an american family with a great sense of humor, a lot of culture and an amazing generosity. I was not just a worker but I was part of the family. They did a very good job to show me many things around Philadephia and even more ! They took me to my first NBA game, which was amazing. They introduce me to many of their friends and also many members of their family. They showed me how they live their religion by going to different churches and Bible studies as well as hosting small group in their house. I really appreciate how they trusted me. I experienced many new things and I learned a lot about the culture, about me and about the life in general. The work was very varied, building stone walls, weeding, cleaning, preparing wood for winter, burning brushes. It was very pleasant to work in such a beautiful property. After the work, no time to get bored. I went kayaking, biking with e-bike and running many times. We played chess and we also went to many sports bar with John to watch the Phillies playing. I also spent a lot of time with Noah, one of their song and I want to thank him for his kindness and his willingness to make my stay an unforgetable experience. I highly recommend them, I will never forget these 5 weeks with you, thank you !

Very nice place, soothing. Cristiano and Marie are superb people. We were able to do DIY, gardening and help in the house. They were able to help us progress in Portuguese, make us discover the region as well as culinary discoveries. The evenings around the campfire are great. Thank you for these moments spent together.

I had a lovely time working for Alison on her farm and learned so much about the horses. Gabriola Island is such an amazing place to explore and the nature is beyond mesmerizing. I will definitely be back to visit and can't wait to see the horses and Annie again! Thanks Alison, hope you're recovery is going well!

After being able to last-minute arrive here, we originally decided to spent 4 weeks at the hostel, which quickly turned into 6 weeks and we absolutely loved it! Boca is located right in the city center, so you can explore everything by foot, but still you will find a calm and chill atmosphere that gives you the opportunity to rest from your travels or socialize with other travelers or locals. Apart from free laundry, breakfast and a weekly allowance at the bar, we were also granted discounts to enjoy the tours to the Laguna and the Vulcano offered by the hostel. The staff working at Boca is great. Soon we became friends with everyone and now we will miss all of them :(... Working was so much fun that it often didn't even feel like working at all. The main job was to work the bar between 5 and 10pm, as well as promoting and hosting the many activities offered and hosted by the Boca family. As a volunteer, it's all about setting the right vibe and making sure everyone is having a great time. So if you're an extroverted person that loves to socialise and attend events, Boca might just be your next family! Hope to see you again soon guys ❤️

Gabriella is definitely a very good person. She has a good heart and a great sense of humour. But above all she is the best cook in the world. We helped her to maintain her garden and to tidy her shelves and cupboards. A very nice experience of sharing at the beginning of our trip which will remain engraved in our memories. By the way, our van is now called "Gab" ;) Thanks again for everything Gabriella and see you soon we hope. Quentin and Fanny

The atmosphere at Ole’s hostel was so welcoming and comfortable! The manager ensured my shifts were accommodated around my online job. The shifts were non-stop with cleaning tasks but Ole really cares about the well-being of the volunteers! My favourite thing about the hostel is the passion for the outdoors the other volunteers and Ole have!! Their hiking knowledge is inspirational!! I made some great friends here! Thank you so much!!

Such a lovely and hard working couple, not even to say anything cute about their gorgeous son Solomon, such easy going happy child. We wish all of them all the best and we may meet again :)

Thomas and Paige are great. They are both very friendly, kind and funny. They were very eager to help with any task and picked up new skills very quickly. We got loads done while they were with us and had a lot of fun at the same time. Our dog will also really miss them, they were so great with her. I would definitely recommend them to help with any project you have, they'd fit in well in basically any situation. Look forward to seeing them again some time on their travels.

I had such a great time with Helen and Clair. The tasks are varied (cleaning, gardening, painting...) and it is a plus to be in 2 different places. I also spent a weekend with Clair's friends who were lovely. I spent a lot of time with Clair in the kitchen, she taught me how to make carrot cake and Irish bread, Clair's meals are delicious. In my spare time I took buses to other places like Sligo and Castelbar. In short, I loved my stay with Clair and Helen 😍.
