Description

I've worked in farms, administration, schools, horse racing stables and in video/documentaries making for the Belgian TV and NGOs.
I've also helped in orphanages/schools in Morocco, Bolivia, Jordan, South Africa and Uganda.
Some experience & interest in permaculture, self-sustainability, animal care, pool maintenance and equicoaching. Many house / farm / stables sitting.

Rather introvert and independent but enjoy meeting interesting people. I like a simple life.
Good sense of organisation and can take initiatives.
I am a morning person, like physical work and am very good at decluttering. + see skills

Maylis is a lovely person, easy going and respectful. She stayed 11 days during which she has done an amazing job removing wall papers, woods, and bricks with the jack hammer. I really appreciated her autonomy and her desire to do the job nice and fast! Not only she is proactive in the job tasks, she is also proactive in the little daily tasks. … read more

I stayed 11 days. I mainly removed wallpaper with a steamer, wooden boards with crowbars and bricks with a jackhammer.
Benoit was an excellent host, as I could choose when I wanted to work, rest and eat. He made sure that the fridge was full of food that me and the other workeraway liked. He and his girlfriend were really friendly and easy going.

I've spent 5 days in April and had a good time cleaning, cooking, moving boxes and putting furniture together. The hours of work were flexible.
Jan is easy going and as a reporter, he has many interesting stories to tell.
The food was really good. The area is pleasant : quiet and green with some shops close by.

It was so great to have Maylis over, during the renovation of my house. She helped me a lot with cleaning, cooking, putting furniture together,... She was a pleasure to have around and share stories with.

Maylis stayed with us for about a month and she was very passionate and hardworking. She loved the children at the community school and the children loved her equally as much.

I stayed there 2 weeks from end of July. The 1st impression of the area was a bit shocking as it is quite poor but working in a school favours a quick integration. Soon I could concentrate on interesting work like helping the teacher (2nd pre primary), because some kids had joined the class later in the year and needed a special attention. Kids … read more

I have twice had the pleasure of hosting Maylis at my place. Even though the first time is by now more than a year ago, I still remember vividly, the day she arrived, being really proactive in suggesting her help, and cleared up a big mess from renovation works that were left in a bad state on the same day. The second time I hosted her was this … read more

I have spent 4 times 2 to 4 days in summer 2018 & 2020. I have helped with general housework (washing machine, dish washing, cleaning), cycling with her kids to school, removed wall paper, did some decluttering, fed chickens and rabbits, drove to IKEA to buy some furniture, prepared rooms for rental guests, …

Je suis restée 6 jours en juillet.
C'est une belle maison avec une chouette vue sur Dinant qui est à 5 minutes à pieds. Tout proche aussi de belles ballades.
J'ai arraché des orties, planté des fleurs, étalé des copeaux de bois, nourri les moutons et le chat, pendu du linge à sécher, porté des encombrants.
En pause, j'ai eu l'occasion de nager … read more

Laurence est une belle personne. Pas étonnant qu'elle ait autant de reviews très positives. J'ai beaucoup appris et ai passé d'excellents moments en travaillant en compagnie des 3 autres workers away.

Some info that might be useful to know :

At the airport Livingstone, you can have a visa to Zambia alone or for Zambia and Zimbabwe for the same price 50$. If you say you are going to help in a school, they give you a business visa which allows to go to Zambia only - one entry.

The "component" is in fact a house in the village that has 4 … read more

I have stayed there one week in October. The place & surroundings (hills, rocks, forests, pastures, monkeys,... ) are beautiful, the house, accommodation and food, great. The ambiance in the shoe leather factory is super. The jobs there for volunteers is mainly packaging and inventory.
