Hello !! I'm from Rennes, Brittany, France. I have just sold in March my tiny company which helped elderly and disabled people at home. So now I have the time to travel and to visit Europe. I have done almost 40 spots with WA. In 2017 I spent my year abroad travelling with my car in Great Britain and Ireland. During that time I visited and worked in so many different places. For an instance, I work in a music school, a donkeys sanctuary, in a buddist temple... With WA, I have travelled in Germany-Czech Republic-Austria-Slovaquia-Hungary, and several spots in France as well. I travel with my car.

When he does something, he does it perfectly - that's a good and rare characteristic to have.

This is not a "bla-bla" feedback. I spent only 2 weeks with Arta and Arturs. I wasn't here because they needed to renovate a floor or to renew the garden, I was here because they wanted to have a cultural exchange with me.
They want to spend time with you, to share their table and moments with you.
This is a very rare place.

First, I'm sorry to reply belatedly to Ruta and Gytis 's feedback because I spent a very good time with them. Usually I spend 1 or 2 weeks for my stays but I wanted to extend my stay as long as possible.
They are very very friendly they did everything for me to be as satisfied as possible.

He planned to stay for a week, but he changed his mind and decided to stay longer, of which we were really happy. Even with his changing plans, it never caused any trouble at all.

Philippe stayed with us for two weeks. He is kind, confident and hard working. He joined in easily with family and was always polite and friendly. Also he was great in communicating his needs and asked questions, when needed. He was self motivated and talkative. We are thankful for all of the work he completed.

Philippe stayed with us for a week and helped to paint the barnhouse and collect firewood in the forest. Work in the forest is pretty physical, yet it is no problem at all for Philippe. He also participated in tasks around the house such as heating up the sauna (wood heated) and hoovering the house. He also helped around in the kitchen. Philippe… read more

I spent a so good time that I decided to come again the same summer. Each time, I was very welcomed. A lot of hosts write "you will be a part of the family" but with Beth and Vasek, it was really like that. Always asking you what do you need what do you want. Very Interesting things to do for boys and girls. Always available to drive you to visit… read more

He was flexible and happy to help in whatever needed to be done. His work ranged from helping to dig a septic system, painting, working with students, and making 100 crepes. Whatever task he had, he always put… read more

I spent only 10 days with Yvie and Steve (It means I would have spent more time with them). It was a very good time. They were very kind and welcoming.
Their location is in a beautiful part of France. I mainly spent the working time to renovate and gardening. They are very fair concerning working hours and days off ( not like some hosts...)

Philippe was a terrific addition to our family. Everything he took on was well done and methodical.
He was super sensitive to everything going on around him. Always ready to jump in and help out. And we were impressed by his determination to better his English, with his classic reading list. Come back next year!

Phillips was an unexpected pleasure to speak with. He is articulative and generous. He worked hard and with enthusiasm at all times. He joined in easily with family and was always polite and friendly. He is welcome to return anytime he wishes. We wish him well for his future interactions with workaway.

Phillipe was a fantastic help to us. He is very self motivated .He did a lot of outside work and as we were moving a lot of moving too. He also painted and did some DIY. He was very good with the other workawayers . I would have no hesitation in recommending Phillip to any prospective host

And I could never forget the gorgeous Nora. )))))))))))

I spent 3 marvellous weeks with Nita, David and the kids. Everybody was very kind and helpful.
The garden and the house are beautiful. The caravan is very comfortable. It was very interesting to follow Nita when she worked. the job was mainly gardening and diy.
I advise this spot for the hosts and for the things to see around.
