Laissé par l'hôte (Help out with garden and DIY ...) pour le workawayer (Yves)
Yves arrived to my finca in early January and stayed for several weeks, during which time he did an enormous amount of hard work. His biggest achievement and contribution was all the firewood he produced -- using the chainsaw to cut up big branches and using the axe to split bigger trunks into usable sizes for the stove. He is strong and… read more

I enjoyed working with an other Workawayer Alex and we stayed in a very beautiful… read more

Yves was a true joy to have in my home. As Yves is a retired professor, I was very privileged to be able to have a rich exchange of philosophy, knowledge and ideas. Whether work related or otherwise, I always enjoyed conversation with Yves. As Yves is near my own age, we shared many perspectives on life that helped me to feel connected, despite… read more

I stayed in Doug 's home for about three weeks: it was my first workaway. I enjoyed working with Doug, very good communication during working hours starting with a friendly breakfast talking many subjects. I must say I appreciate very much the way Doug is working, using many tools, methodically, so I had only to follow him and help him. I like… read more
