Description
I am a recent university graduate from California who loves adventure, travel, and meeting people along the way. I've recently done workaways in India and Thailand, and now am on a working holiday in New Zealand. I’m eager to learn about new cultures while giving back to the local people and the environment.

Maddie and Anna were excellent volunteers. They were super enthusiastic and hard working, doing lot of hard work digging and planting native trees. They are great company - very entertaining and intelligent. We loved having them here and would absolutely recommend to other hosts.

Thank you Elspeth and Kim for a wonderful workaway stay! Lovely accommodation, great food, breathtaking location. We learned lots about native wading birds and their habitat during our stay, and helped out with planting natives and removing invasive species. The work was clear/structured, and so rewarding!! Elspeth even took us to a community… read more

Maddie and Anna are the best workawayers EVER! Well travelled and complete with excellent stories, they fitted in perfectly, and were a total pleasure to have around. They are enthusiastic, hard-working, funny, excellent communicators and interested in all sorts of stuff (including my rambling tales.) Plus they can cook, and clean... and drive… read more

Best week ever! Grant was a fantastic host and we loved getting to experience a slice of rural kiwi life. The place is beautiful; it’s clear that Grant has put so much love and care into his banana orchard, the thriving garden, and native bush restoration on the property. There was plenty to do throughout the week and the work was varied. We… read more

Planned on staying 1 month, ended up staying four. I don’t know where to start… everything about my experience was so special.
The kids are an absolute joy. They are eager to learn, and teaching them through games, music, and movement made it that much more fun. The teachers have created a warm environment for kids of different backgrounds and I… read more

Very late to post a review, but better late than never! I stayed at Luis' place in Feb/March of 2020 right before the pandemic. I had a fantastic time and instantly felt like part of the community at Hacienda Colonial. For the time I was there I helped weed the garden, cook big meals for all of the volunteers, make hanging mobile art, dog proof… read more

I greatly enjoyed my time at Senthil’s farm. The place is tucked away in the remote jungle, surrounded by beautiful landscapes and wildlife (including elephants!). There wasn’t much farm work due to the monsoon season, so we spent our time on various paint projects. Plenty of time to relax and hang out with Senthil’s friendly dogs. The food was… read more
