Deixado pelo Workawayer (Deana) para o anfitrião

If you would like the experience of staying in a small village, meeting some of the kindest people, some of which keep to traditions that have been passed down through their families, enjoy the peacefulness and beauty of the Hills and Mountains surrounding then this just might be for you!

After talking with Yvonne on FaceTime I just knew this was… read more going to be a good fit!
Yvonne is one of the kindest, friendliest and sweetest people I have met on this journey.
We had many wonderful conversations, some good laughter & enjoyed watching some movies together with the fire going on chilly nights.
Yvonne was so welcoming and generous with her time, making sure I always had enough to eat and was comfortable.
The bedroom had plenty of space to hang a few things up, a desk with a few dressers and a comfortable bed. I shared the bathroom which is in between the 2 bedrooms. The shower is nice and hot.

We enjoyed spending the day together out and about whether it was to run errands or to see a piece of history.

I enjoyed very much working in Yvonne‘s garden. Getting bushes, vines and trees trimmed back. There was so much overgrowth, but when we were done after three weeks, the garden is looking so lovely. 😍
I was also so happy to help get her shower redone. I used the power sander to prep, painted the base coat ( Yvonne painted the top coat) stripped the old caulking off, cleaned the top area of the tub then applied new caulking. It really turned out nice and I was so happy to get that project done for her.
Since the weather was getting chilly, I didn’t mind at all to help load firewood from outside into her wood box next to the fireplace in the house. Anything to help!

Yvonne and I enjoyed very much cooking together and coming up with different meals. It was a little bit of adventure some days but it was definitely fun! 🤩
Yvonne even taught me how to make homemade tiramisu!😋

Her dog Max is such a little character. I miss him so much! We played a lot, he would follow me around and even got up on my bed . He doesn’t shed so I didn’t mind that at all.
Staying in Valva, was one of the biggest highlights of my trip.
I will very much cherish my time there and certainly hope to make it back some day.
I can’t imagine or even fathom not getting to spend time with Yvonne and close friends nearby again.
Thank you so much Yvonne for your time and sweet friendship! 🤗

It was such a pleasure to host Deana. She is so adaptable to all situations and always ready to work. No tasks were refused and we did many jobs in the garden. I would recommend Deana for any role she chooses. We had many chats and she is really good company. She also a good cook, and willing to help all around the house. Deana you can come back… read more

Talia and Angus stayed for a week. They are a lovely couple and were a pleasure to host. They asked what I needed done and just got on with the work. Very tidy and neat, looked after the tools really well and Angus even repaired some that had got beyond me.

We only stayed a week with Yvonne but we wish it had been longer. Yvonne kindly showed us the local areas and introduced us to her kind Italian friends. It was especially nice to be eating locally sourced and home grown food supplied by Yvonne and Mario. We helped clear back the garden at the property and between the two of us at the end of the… read more

The two weeks at Yvonne's were just great. The house is big, offering enough privacy and some of the best views we have ever seen... and the village itself is very nice too, with the old houses in the centre, beautiful cave church on the hill and friendly and helpful neighbours. And with thermal baths just few km away as a bonus!
In the mornings… read more

Staying with Yvonne was amazing! I enjoyed well cooked meals and had plenty of personal space available. Yvonne was very kind and made sure to implement rests and lighter work to the normal tasks, which all together didn't take much time of the whole day. I already miss Max and wish you had left him in my car, when I left :P

Simon was my first experience with workaway. He arrived and slotted right in, we spoke of what I needed to be achieved and off he went. Very pleasant and respectful, clean and tidy. He is very welcome to return.
