Description

We are Sarah and Volker from Germany. We’ve been a couple for more than 10 years now and have traveled both together and separately. Currently, we’re both long-term travelers and have given up our jobs as an engineer and a social worker to do so. We love getting to know new countries, cultures, and people. We’re open and warm-hearted people, curious and always eager to learn new things. We both enjoy nature, good food and interesting conversations. Volker loves to ride a bike and Sarah loves Yoga.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Volker is an engineer and grew up in a family with a long tradition of working with wood. He is outgoing and always willing to help.
Sarah is a social worker; she is very empathetic, experienced with animals, and isn’t afraid to roll up her sleeves. She completed a yoga teacher training in Nepal, though mainly for herself and not to teach.

We are both reliable, responsible, and able to work both under supervision and independently. We have WWOOFing/Workaway experience with construction work, gardening, animal care, and working with children.

Paula and her family are truly kind and warm-hearted people. Their house in the mountains is simply gorgeous. It’s very remote, but for us, that was part of the charm. Also her sister drove us into town almost every day, though you can also hike there in 2–3 hours. Also there is a very small supermarket 2min walk away from the house.

We were fortunate to host Volker from Germany, and he was a truly wonderful addition to our farm. Volker stayed with us for over two months and quickly became an invaluable part of our daily life. He was consistently polite, friendly, and had a great sense of humour, making him a pleasure to be around from the very beginning.

From the very beginning, I was welcomed with incredible warmth and hospitality. At first, like with every new host as a volunteer, it was a bit of a mystery what to expect. Very quickly, however, it became clear that this family is open, kind, and genuinely caring. It never felt like I was just a guest, instead, I felt like a true part of the … read more family. I was also warmly included in their wider circle of friends, which made the experience even more special. Even though my English was not perfect, they always helped me to improve my language skills, which made communication even more meaningful.

Life on the farm was both exciting and enriching. The projects were diverse and hands-on. The construction work was similar to classic carpentry, including finishing a sauna made of the finest cedar wood and advancing a cabin for future WWOOFers. It was also incredibly exciting to see how maple syrup is produced, and I had the chance to get creative myself. For Christmas, I was able to make a cutting board for my parents, which was a very personal and special experience. In addition, I helped with the daily farm tasks and worked with the animals, especially horses and chickens. Each day felt like another enrichment, full of shared work, learning, and genuine collaboration. Everything had purpose and was done together as a team.

The food deserves a special mention. Honestly, the best food I’ve had in Canada. Fresh, home-cooked meals shared around the table added greatly to the strong sense of family and community.

Christmas was a particularly touching moment. I was deeply surprised and moved to receive a very thoughtful gift for my upcoming bikepacking trip through the USA and Patagonia. It was far from ordinary. Thank you so much again. This gesture truly reflects the family’s warmth and generosity.

Beyond the farm, Gabriola Island has so much to offer: beautiful hiking trails, a charming village full of genuine kindness, and countless opportunities for outdoor activities. Whether it was fishing, swimming, or sitting by a fire on the shore, there were always special moments, both alone and together with the family.

The stay was so positive and enriching that I already know: this summer, I would love to return and spend another four weeks with the family. This farm is more than just a place. It truly feels like a home away from home. And now, this experience has become an integral part of my story on my world trip. 🤍
