I only have good things to say about Karina. Karina is a great person.. She helped set up a solar system that was really not easy to install, and she handled it with patience and determination. Always smiling, curious, and very friendly, she put a lot of effort into the work. I totally recommend her! Thanks Karina and all the best on your journey!

Staying at Laurent's was is an experience I will cherish forever.
Laurent is kind, welcoming and made me feel comfortable right away. Beside, he showed me around on my free days and made me discover some amazing places I would not have reached without a car.
Plus, the village where he lives is just beautiful, and so are its people (:

I can only say good things about Irene,

We were guests of Laurent and his wife Sue the first week of September.
We had our wooden house to sleep in, usually in the morning we worked (digging deep holes or building a stonewall ), in the afternoon we were free to rest for a few hours and go to the beach. In the evening we returned to work some more and to prepare dinner.

Corsica is a beautiful island: sea, mountains and lots of wild nature. Laurent and Sue are beautiful people, reliable and excellent hosts, we recommend all workawayers to have an experience here.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

My stay with Laurent on this beautiful island was the best thing to enjoy the last summer weeks this year! I had a great time and really profited from the nice beaches, giant mountains and the tranquility of Laurent’s life. Although we worked hard in the morning we always had enough energy to go swimming or hiking in the afternoon :) He really

Also he has four cats living with him that are too cute :)Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Laurent's project was exactly as described- we came in the spring so it was work mainly around setting up the garden and planting trees. It is physical work and it is gratifying, plus you get to learn about growing food!
Laurent himself was a kind and thoughtful host, he gave a lot of consideration into the quality of food he had around the

He was also very thoughtful in sharing Corsican trivia, Corsican delicacies, and showing us some really good spots in the island. I cannot rave enough about how much I enjoyed my time there; the feeling of biking around the island using Laurent's e-bikes and swimming in clear waters with my co-volunteeer in Corsica are memories I'll keep for a lifetime.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Nienke help on my Corsican documentary project was really appreciated. She is currently an anthropologist student but she studied design and visual arts before. At video editing she is really good, very creative and perfectionist in the best way. On the project, Nienke had plenty of initiative and drive and deserves nothing less than the best!!

Working and traveling around Corsica with Nienke was a real pleasure, she is so kind and considerate and thoughtful of others!
We had so many interesting discussions that time really did fly during her stay. Nienke is an activist on plastic waste and she really do care about having a sustainable life. Travellers like Nienke shows the real value of workaway experiences.
Nienke - thank you so very much for everything that you have contributed!

I didn't plan to come to Corsica, but Laurent invited me to come and stay at his place because he needed some help with editing his documentary! I'm really glad he did, because Corsica is beautiful and I'm happy to have seen it! I had a great time staying there! He has a beautiful house in the mountains and near the sea. With the cutest cat ever

At home we enjoyed easy and good meals from the vegetables and fruit of his garden! We had a lot of interesting conversations also. Laurent knows a lot about the environment, society, politics, technology and the economy. There is always something new to talk about every day :)
Pro tip: Take the electric mountainbike and go for a ride in the mountains! You won't regret it :)Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

I had a great stay at Laurents house in Corsica. I helped him to build a stone wall and did some cooking. He was very eager to show me around and gave a lot of advice on places to visit in Corsica!

Grigoriy did a very good work for my stone wall building project. He was very fast and efficient. I must admit that I was really impressed by the quality of his work.
As a guest he was really friendly, very well educated and he have great culture.
I want to thanks him for coming and he will always be welcome if he wish to visit Corsica again.

We had a great time in Corsica with Laurent. We helped him to begin his garden (preparing ground, planting tomatoes, zucchinis, melons) during the two first weeks. For the two last weeks, we took out stones from an old collapsed house in the village to build a wall in dry stone. It was an hard job but only three hours a day and the result in two

During our free time, Laurent drove us around Corsica to visit the most beautiful places, and he also loaned us his car during a all weekend to see the places we didn't visit together.
For the preparation of meals, Laurent only cooks meat in the fireplace, we prepared everything else without him. It was nice to share lunch together. Laurent often talks about environmental, society or scientific facts, which allowed us to talk during hours.
We have been joined by an other workawayer, unfortunately Laurent didn't speake english when she was here, and she doesn't speak french.
Thank you very much Laurent for everything !Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Deborah and Thomas had good knowledge and did really good work in the garden.

Very nice stay at Laurent's home. We have made a really interesting and beautiful travel by the coastline from the Northwest to southeast, visiting paradisiacal beaches and throwing amazing mountains and citys.
