Olivia was quite simply the best workawayer we've ever had. Not only did she handle the tasks we suggested amazingly well, she used her own initiative and creativity to help us around our property and wasn't scared of getting her hands dirty! We really hope to have Olivia back again and would highly recommend her to other hosts!

Staying with Jamie and Adam was our first WorkAway experience and wow...what a great one it was! They were kind, supportive and social hosts who quickly became good friends. We loved staying with them, they made us feel welcome, safe and part of the family. We did all different kinds of jobs around the property, like landscaping, bush clearing,
… read more pressure washing and many other fun jobs. We had a great time helping them transform their beautiful property and playing with Ella and Joni <3 We ate the tastiest vegan meals with them each night and bonded over trying to make the world a better place. We played board games, did yoga together and went out on their new boat, sailing the great Lake Cowichan on its maiden voyage (and even went cliff jumping!). We can't thank you guys enough for the time we spent with you, it is something we will always cherish. We wish everyone could experience a WorkAway like the one we had with Jamie and Adam. We miss you and the girls so much!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Nick was a pleasure to have around and was keen to help us out and get on with tasks. He was easy going and down to do some of the more mundane jobs we had going on! Nick is quiet but an interesting guy when you take the time to get to know him! We’re sorry we couldn’t get to host him for longer.

Jamie and Adam made me feel so at home in their place. Due to scheduling issues I could only stay for a few days, but I had a fantastic time. None of the work was particularly difficult, mostly just helping in the garden and power washing the drive. Hanging out with the guys in the evening, and spending time with Ella and Joni, their two dogs, was

Jeffrey is really interested in getting into projects and doing a good job. He was really nice to have around our place with a nice balance of socializing and being happy spending time alone. Jeffrey really made the most of the area and wanted to hike/swim, but also had a really relaxed pace which we enjoyed. Jeffrey's personality is shy at first

I had a great time with his guys. My job was to move plants and transplant them elsewhere, I did some weeding. I has some fun in cooking to try new vegan recipes. Despite the fact that the boys work a lot, we had the chance to spend time together. We played bowling. We were visiting Botanical National Park. Our meals together will be missed, I

Hugo was great to have around! He was the life and soul of most evening conversations and was always keen to work. He dug some of the most beautiful trenches Youbou has ever seen. Would be happy to have him stay with us again!

I had a beautiful stay with Jamie and Adam. They are so open and inspirational. I was well taken care of and felt comfortable. The work was mainly gardening and landscaping - with lots of digging and removing blackberries. It was a social and interactive stay and I learned lots and had so much FUN! They got two lovely dogs and a breathtaking view!

Our experience at Jamie & Adam's house was wonderful. They are amazing host and they really know how to make you fell at home. We enjoyed all the time we spend together, the talks were very interesting and super funny, the dinners were healthy and delicious. They work a lot but always found some time to spend time with us. The work was always

Julia & Jannik were awesome! They are hard workers, fast learners and were very easy to manage because they always use their initiative. They're creative with what they do and had great suggestions and ideas! They are also both great photographers and clearly have a very creative eye.
Jannik is very handy and is super capable of doing any
… read more physical work and you can often find Julia in the kitchen like a cleaning fairy - our home always seemed well kept with them around.
These folks are mature beyond their years and are incredibly responsible and genuinely want to do what they can. I hope other hosts have the pleasure of their company and have the opportunity to benefit from their work!
Julia & Jannik, thank you for making us the lovely hanging mobile of driftwood and sea shells - we'll always think of you when we see it!
We hope to see you in the future. You're always welcome to come and hang with us in Youbou!

Our stay at Adam and Jamie’s Place was an awesome experience. We had a lot of fun and the work was always fair and not to hard. We felt welcomed from the first minute and like a part of the family. We‘ve been to Bamfield which was an amazing trip (thank you so much again Adam!), we‘ve learned some origami and how to bake vegan brownies and banana
… read more bread btw the vegan food was awesome guys! We played a lot with Ella and Joni (two super cute dogs) and loved entertaining them. We had super nice conversations and got to know super cool people like Diane and Paul (the neighbors) and Mad and Will! We will definitely come back to Youbou to stay at your amazing place again and hang out in the hottub with you and eat some Smokey’s! Adam and Jamie are such incredible hosts and we are more than lucky to experience our first workaway at this amazing place with amazing people!
Thank you for the perfect last two weeks!
Lots of Love and only the best for you four!

I had a great time in Youbou! You made me feel really comfortable from the very beginning and it felt rather like vacation instead of work. I learnt some things about the UK as well as Canada. We tried some nice recipes and Adam also took us to Bamfield which was amazing. They are the best hosts you can wish for and have the best dogs you can

Best wishes to Youbou! Already miss hanging out in the hot tub with you and playing with the dogs.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.
