Matt and Sheree are a lovely couple and they helped to offer me one of the best Workaway experiences I have ever had! They were both extremely friendly and accomodating, and I enjoyed spending time with them outside of work. I was given a lot of freedom to check out the local and forest and Matt even let me borrow his car and bike for a day to go

We stayed with Matt, Sheree and Ailish for nearly two weeks and could not have asked for a more perfect way to start our trip in Australia. They are so wonderful and really made us feel like part of the family!
We slept in the caravan which was perfect, haven't slept that good in months. Both me and Joel have coeliacs disease and they were so

We mainly worked in the gardens with reticulation, weeding, fencing etc which was really nice. Sheree has so much knowledge in permaculture and we got a lot of advice for our future property.
Would highly recommend this place, we would love to come back in the future!
Ocean and Leo stayed with us for 10 days, helping with gardening, chickens, minor landscaping and cleaning. They did not have a lot of experience in gardening so needed some direction, but once the task was understood they did a good job. They also cooked us a couple of delicious meals! We enjoyed chatting with them about a lot of different topics

We stayed only 10 days with Sheree and Matt but it was a very great Time. Matt and Sheree are very kindness and open minded people.

Sheree and Matt were wonderful host and our first workaway experience. We stayed 14days, helping on their beautiful property full of kangoroos, birds and amphibians in a lovely caravan. We helped on small tasks in the garden (watering plants, building wicking beds for plants), did a lot of fencing, some light earth work and helped with stuff in
… read more the garage. We helped with the chickens, Madonna and Britney and listend to sheree talk about her permaculture plans for the property which was really inspiring - a great chance for everybody interested in permaculture to see how the permaculture plan is developed and integrated in a garden! A lot happened in the two weeks on the property and it was amazing to see the progress. It was hard work sometimes, in the heat of the day but it was always rewarding to see what we had made at the end. The days were filled with nice talks, good work and time to explore. We had spontaneous wine tasting, encounters with a friendly goana and on a nightwalk in the bush Matt took us on we could even see some possums. Sheree and Matt were amazing, answering all our newbie questions about Australia and pretty mutch making us feel lika part of the family. We went on small weekend trips together, spend time with their daughter ailish and explored the region together with their Au-pair Jesse. We could‘t have hoped for a better first experience and the experience on their property will be one of our highlights of our whole Australia experience!
Thank you so much again for having us!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

We really enjoyed having Timo and Clara stay with us for two weeks! They are a curious and adventurous couple who when given a task take the time to think about the possible solutions and ways to complete the task, asking questions when necessary. Timo and Clara helped out with gardening, other property work, chickens, and cooking meals. Thanks so

We really enjoyed the two weeks Delphine and Quentin stayed with us, and couldn’t have asked for more helpful, hard working, easy going and interesting people to share our home and lives with for this short time. They are both very talented with photo and video making and we enjoyed sharing some of their work and travel stories. Delphine and

We had the chance to stay at Sheree, Ailish (their little daughter) and Matt's place for two weeks. This was the dream experience you can expect. We had quite a lot of Workaway experiences now and they did everything with perfection. We had quality time with two (three ;-)) lovely people who are talkative, interesting and interested by our

The really good friend you would love to have. They make us feel like home with a great sense of hospitality. We slept in their caravan, which was really nice to let them have some privacy and same for us. Also, their place is a paradise surrounded by kangaroos! Perfect spot for a deep deconnexion and relaxation with nature! We are people who love nature more than city so that was pefect! And cherry on the cake: amazing wine tasting two steps from the house. We also really appreciated the day off with them! We discoverd a bit of the region and that was fantastic. About the job, nothing difficult. Working outside there was a privilege. After few hours outside, we always had amazing food prepared by them or by us. We really want to have this wonderful family in Belgium one day! Just to share what they shared with us. We wish you all the very best!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

We really enjoyed having Ryan stay with us for a little while! Ryan is so polite, respectful and overall a gentle and kind person who we loved having at our home. He communicated well right up until the start of his stay which helped immensely given a few teething problems we had at the start (cough - covid!). Ryan was super adaptable and flexible

Ryan did some tree planting, organised our shed (which was a huge job) and some general garden work. He asked questions throughout and was always willing to learn.
Thanks again Ryan and all the best. Always welcome here.
Matt and Sheree

I had an absolutely fantastic week staying with Sheree, Matt, and Ailish. They are wonderful people and great hosts who will do everything they can to make sure that you have everything you need to make the most of your time in their area, and I was quite comfortable living in their caravan. Work-wise, Sheree and Matt are flexible and will work

The cherry on top, of course, is the sublime view from their property, and their beautiful natural surrounds which are home to many interesting birds and large numbers of kangaroos (the latter of which, despite Matt's assurances to the contrary, I did not grow tired of). Sheree, Matt, and Ailish's place has my highest recommendation, and I would love to be back if I ever make it back to WA.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

THANK YOU Lian and Steven!
This was our first workaway as hosts (having previously been the workawayers!) and we couldn't have asked for a better start. From the moment these two awesome people walked through our doors, to the day they left, they did not stop helping. On their first day, I came home from work, expecting them to be settling in and
… read more making themselves comfortable but Steven was already washing our windows and Lian was busy helping Sheree in the kitchen!
Lian and Steven have a strong "can-do" attitude and nothing is a bother for them.
Lian was amazing in the kitchen, cooking us some incredible meals like a chinese banquet, bibimbap, noodles and pasta. I was furiously taking photos and making notes to learn from the best! Our house was spotless and clean thanks to Lian and it was so lovely to experience. We also unleashed Lian in the garden where she furiously attacked weeds and has prepared a bed ready for some new seedlings which made Sheree very happy.
Steven is highly knowledgeable with many tools and no job is too technical for him. As soon as I realised who we had in our midst, I decided to throw my more technical jobs at him which included setting up a 4G antenna (and soldering different sized wires). Steven did a fantastic and professional job and I am so thankful. I never thought a workawayer would be doing that job for me! The other great job Steven did was build a compost toilet. But this is not any compost toilet, it is a well built and solid structure, using recycled materials leftover from our house build, with a toilet inside. If there were an architecture award for composting toilets, I would nominate him!
Every night was filled with laughs and smiles and we instantly felt their presence gone when they left.
Thank you guys for all of your hard work and great company. If you are a potential workaway host reading this, you won't regret taking these guys on! They are friendly, hardworking, communicate with honesty and integrity and you will be glad for their presence.
See you again soon and all the best to you both! :)

We are so grateful to be given the chance and so blessed to have Matt & Sheree as our first host, so brave of them to invite us (5 day old newbies) as their first workawayers! 👏😆
We have stayed for 11 days, filled with activities and fun!
For us (62 & 57), it's like visiting our kids to help out as much as we could, a sneak preview of what's

Matt & Sheree are honest, easy going, patient and very knowledgeable on permaculture, sustainability, being eco conscious, we have learnt so much from them!
Steven was given the opportunity to help install antenna and build the compost toilet using recycled materials which he thoroughly enjoyed working on.
I helped with weeding which I attacked with vengeance, tough and at times back breaking but so satisfying and my new found love! 💪🥰🤣
Every evening was filled with good food and great laughter. Matt's superb steak & fries, yummy burgers and yes, I was having a ball, cooking different Asian dishes with Matt's to die for outdoor stove and cast iron wok 😍
Thank you very much for having us, making our first workaway so memorable and fruitful. You guys have set the benchmark so high as fabulous hosts!
See you soon, just msg us anytime when help is needed, all the best to you, stay healthy & happy 😊Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.
