Adrian is a great Workawayer. He is strong and fit and has lots of common sense, so was able to think of ways to make a quite difficult job of putting in a drainage system much easier. He is self directing and didn't need supervision.

He would make a great permanent employee.

Adrian was a lovely guy to have socially. He was easy to get on with… read more

I spent about 1,5 weeks with Olivia. Right after my arrival, she gave me the opportunity to arrive in Australian everyday life. She has been a very caring host and can help with insider tips in Sydney. Both the beautiful house in Woy Woy, with fantastic views over the Central Coast, and their home in Enmore/Sydney, were very comfortable. The work… read more

Bennie and Laura were all you could wish for in a Workaway couple. They were self-directing when I was too busy to be involved and their work was A1. Bennie is really skilled at joinery/carpentry and Laura was a great organiser and general helper. Highly recommended.

You couldn't ask for more in a Workawayer than Quentin. He did a really professional set of drawings for us of a major house renovation on his computer.

These were truly a wonderful two weeks I have spent in Woy Woy with the lovely Jenkins family. As a first time "workawayer", I didn't know what to expect, standing at the train station as I rang up Olivia to tell her I had arrived. In the end, I couldn't have hoped for a better experience and I believe, as do all helpers who have had the chance to… read more
