Description
I'm planning to travel in Colombia and am looking for interesting volunteer and work placements where I can contribute and learn new skills. I have travelled like this in Australia, Mexico, and Italy where I have volunteered in some diverse and incredible places including yoga retreats, a pottery farmstay, an edible flower farm, a meditation and solidarity centre, a camp site, an English school, and a guesthouse. All of which were incredible experiences.

I'm open to different Workaways, however, I'm especially keen to find places focussed on yoga, meditation, community, gardening and permaculture, sustainability, art, and healthy and natural living.

A super cool lady and a great volunteer, Amy was more than capable of completing any task we asked of her and became a vital part of our community for the duration of her stay. Highly recommended.

My experience here lived up to the hype created by other Workawayer's reviews: the campsite is in an incredibly beautiful location; Colm is the friendliest, most welcoming host (and makes excellent dinners); the work hours/ expectations are very reasonable; and I've thought longingly about chestnut pancakes everyday since I've left. I'm really… read more

I'm really glad I had the opportunity to stay for a month at this centre and get to know all the lovely people there. Having spent time in different workaway communities previously I had thought that I would settle in quickly, however, it did take me a little longer than I'd anticipated to adjust and feel at home. By the time I had to leave I… read more

Laissé par le workawayer (Amy) pour l'hôte (Edible flowers, vegetables, ...)

I really enjoyed my time at the farm and felt very welcomed by the lovely staff and other volunteers. The expected hours are a bit longer than currently listed on the profile: 9am-4pm instead of 9am-2pm, however, I really liked spending all day outside in the beautiful gardens. Duties were mainly pruning, harvesting, weeding and transplanting -… read more

Laissé par le workawayer (Amy) pour l'hôte (Discover real México and help ...)

I had such a great time in Salamanca and really hope to go back at some point later in the year. Clara is one of the kindest people I've met and gave me the warmest welcome to Mexico, and continued to be so supportive throughout my stay. I really enjoyed teaching at the school as every single student was lovely. The hours are very reasonable and… read more

An amazing place to live in and work at, we had such a great experience there. We felt at home instantly following a super warm welcome from Amanda, and the rest of the team were incredibly welcoming and caring as well. The guesthouse is in the perfect location in the heart of Bellingen which is an amazing little town close to the ocean, Dorrigo… read more

We have just had Amy and Marine to stay with us for 3 weeks in February and it is a pleasure for me to write a review for them. Amy and Marine are fabulous young women. They are positive, upbeat, interesting and great to be around. Their confidence and kindness is infectious and gave a lovely energy to our guesthouse. They got along so well with… read more
