Kischka and Julie were our first experience with Workaway and we couldn't have asked for anything better than them!! We stayed 8 days, taking care of the house while they were out and pet sitting their wonderful dog Inky and the sweet shy cat Mika. While we were there they were also renovating their upper apartment and we helped them making some… read more

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Isabella & Alice)

We had the pleasure of hosting Isabella and Alice this September, and the only downside to the experience was that they could not stay longer. They first stayed in our home for a few days while we were travelling, taking excellent care of our home and pets, and remaining in close communication so we could feel at ease while we were away. They even… read more

Staying at julie's and kichka's house was our first Workaway expérience, and what beautiful 10 days we had !
We could not have been luckier. They welcomed us warmly, invited us to spend time with them and their friends. We exchanged recipes and meals, croissants, magrets de canard, ribs, crêpes, cinamon rolls, and so on...
They were always… read more

Wow! I can hardly find the words to express how lucky we were to have hosted Élodie and Nathan for their first Workaway experience. We needed help demolishing a kitchen and assembling the new cabinets, and Nat and Élo told us that they’d had experience remodeling their own homes. But what also caught my eye is that they both play instruments and… read more

We are so happy that we were able to host Nicholas this past summer. He originally came to stay just for a few days, but ending up being here for a month, and what a great month it was! Nico was a wonderful Workawayer, both in his abilities and willingness to take on whatever projects we asked him to do, and in his easygoing and engaging… read more

I feel the frase, "Describe your experience" is so difficult to express and so small to describe in a hand ful of words. Julie and Kischka host me for a full month in Santa Cruz, I came due to other workaway that got cancelled because of wild fires, which in a way I kind of give thanks to Life for guiding me to this family. We did countless… read more

Oli and his partner Laila visited us in summer of 2022, with the prospect of redoing a brick path and patio that had sunk into the dirt. We are so pleased with the hard work they did over the course of their stay, clearing out the area, pulling up the bricks, and relaying the entire path and patio with mortar so we won't have the same problem… read more

Flor was a kind, enthusiastic, and fun housesitter. Our dog, Inky, got more walks with Flor while we were away than she ever does with us, and Flor sent us pictures of the two of them having fun together. Flor arrived a day before our trip so that we could show her everything that was needed and jumped right in to help us with preparations,… read more

I had an unforgettable experience in Santa Cruz and enjoyed every minute of it as I was housesitting for Julie, Kischka and the kids. I stayed at their home for a week and took care of their pets, while doing some house chores.
They made me feel very welcome. I would definitely go back.

Megan was the first Workawayer to stay with my elderly mother, and it worked out far better than I could have imagined, mostly due to Megan's kind, patient, and easygoing manner. At the end of her two-week stay, my mom was in love with Megan and would have loved for her to stay on. Megan's experience with elderly people from a previous job was a… read more

I spent two wonderful weeks caring for Kischka's sweet and spunky mother. This was my first workaway and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Kischka, Julie, and their two boys made me feel incredibly welcome and at home. They helped me get around the town, let me borrow a bike, and were there whenever I had any questions.

We were lucky enough to be Manon and Yvan's first Workaway hosts, though they have done similar work exchanges on their own.
