Santi and Vicki, were AMAZING! Such beautiful happy people to be surrounded by. Their work in the garden was outstanding- such hard workers, tackling to big jobs with enthusiasm (& great music!). Our two weeks (+1😝) was filled with fun, laughter and FABULOUS meals together. We opened our minds, & tummies, and enjoyed both Argentine & vegetarian

We feel that we now have a kiwi family forever!

What a wonderful week’s exchange we had with the beautiful Rina from the outskirts of Tokyo! Workaway offers more than a network to get help around the home, it provides an opportunity to connect, and immerse in daily life in a new country. This is proven to be one of the best ways to learn a new laungage. Rina was engaged, polite and curious ..

Celeste and Craig treated me like a real family member. They showed me the best of Tauranga and I fell in love with the place thanks to them. Your life is so wonderful and I'm so glad you welcomed me there. My main job was weeding the garden. But you two are so kind and always told me I could take it easy. Their house was so comfortable and I

We are so happy we got the chance to meet Celeste & Craig, they were wonderful people and made us feel so welcome!

It was lovely spending time with this beautiful young German couple… Lea is a fabulous baker and they both are very talented in the area of editing and production of the most amazing travel blogs! We really enjoyed them sharing their experiences, new games and company with us! They are well equipped to have fantastic adventures around Aotearoa.

Luke was a fantastic ambassador for his country, and home towns! We so enjoyed his company and his passion to embrace the DIY, kiwi can do attitude (& local slang!)! Tasked with the tough job of removing some flaxes, he has earned bragging rights to forever be known as the “flax slayer”!

The ability to reconnect to fantastic memories and experiences of my Dutch heritage by having Denise with us was just so special!

Craig and Celeste are simply lovely. I am so grateful to have met them and to have experienced my first Workaway with them.

They are very chill and relaxed people so there was a lot of freedom to plan stuff around it. I feel very lucky to have made lovely memories with them and I will always remember them as my bonus kiwi parents.

Our stay with Celeste and Craig was such a perfect introduction to kiwi life! They were so warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. They were very flexible in terms of work and made us feel like they cared deeply about us having a wonderful experience exploring the area as much as helping with the tasks on their homestead! We felt so lucky

Their home is in a beautiful area, among rolling hills with gorgeous sunsets and a view of Mt. Manganui in the distance but is also a close drive to the bustling city of Tauranga. We enjoyed so many lovely meals and chats together during our time there. They feel like very special kiwi parents to us now!

We eat like Kings and Queens, and Sarah and Beni were instrumental in hatching, and nurturing, my winter garden glasshouse dream!

Ava Rae & Clara were a pleasure to host. A great fit for our family…. Such fun when they said yes and jumped in to be part of our crazy adventures! Very adaptable accommodating different projects as the weather allowed. Especially enjoyed them treating us with their home cooked specialty meal. Safe travels girls ~ & thank you😊

I'm so glad that I got the opportunity to stay with Celeste and Craig for a week. Both of them are so lovely, careing hosts with a great sense of humour. They made me feel welcome straight from the beginning and treaded me like family.

Jantje was an absolute delight to host. Quietly stepping up and helping as needed with daily tasks at home, and also tackling projects with gusto. Her genuine commitment to ‘earn her keep’ is testament to her character. What enhanced our exchange was getting to spend time with her off the property as we showed her some of our favourite places. She

Lola was an absolute delight to welcome into our home. Our time spent together is a true testament to the spirit of Workaway being a 'cultural exchange'. She was completely engaged and happy to share ~ and this coupled with her beautiful, natural, relaxed personality made slotting into daily life here at her first kiwi home completely effortless.

We delighted in her passion to share cuisine & language from her home with us, and have now added her beautiful recipes to our favorites! We will always treasure our time with Lola and look forward to following her adventures around not only New Zealand, but also the rest of the world! She will forever be welcome in our home.

I was lucky enough to meet Celeste and Craig and stay at their lovely home for 2.5 weeks and had the best time there!
Even though it was their first time hosting through Workaway, they put all the effort into welcoming me warmly and making me feel as part of the family. A beautiful couple whose kindness and generosity are worth way more than 5

They made me discover special places and the kiwi way of life and introduced me to new friends. They were very nice to me regarding the jobs I had to do and always made sure I was okay. They also gave me the best advice and recommendations for the rest of my journey in beautiful New Zealand, and I'm very thankful for that. We shared a lot of fun times together, and I really loved it!!
I will definitely miss my kiwi parents (and the cats), but I'm so grateful to have them in my life now 🫶Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.
