I stayed with José, Nick and Charlie for three and a half weeks. I had a very good time here. The surroundings are beautiful. The work itself was interesting and I enjoyed it. My tasks changed every couple of days, so it never got boring. I varnished tiles and wood, pruned olive trees, did some cleaning, cut firewood. José, Nick and Charlie are super welcoming. I enjoyed our conversations and the good food they offered. There's plenty of nice hikes, bicycle routes and villages to visit. Thanks a lot!

French: Les mots ne sauraient exprimer mon expérience chez André. Son lieu appartient à un autre monde, un monde plus simple. Il m'a offert un espace accueillant et sécurisant, où il faisait bon simplement « être ». La nourriture y était d'une grande fraîcheur et l'eau, d'une pureté absolue. C'était merveilleux de savoir d'où provenait la source de toute chose. J'ai adoré aller au puits pour y remplir le seau. J'ai adoré la forêt enchantée. J'ai adoré les bains aux bols chantants tibétains qui ont ouvert mon âme. Le travail consistait à organiser, nettoyer, aider à la réalisation d'une mosaïque, donner un coup de main chez un ami à lui et, par-dessus tout, à renouer avec l'esprit et l'amour. Je suis arrivée en ne parlant presque pas le français. Chaque jour, il m'aidait à apprendre de nouvelles expressions et à prononcer correctement les mots. Dans l'ensemble, ce fut une expérience véritablement transformatrice pour moi, et je lui serai éternellement reconnaissante d'avoir croisé sa route. C'est un saint, cela ne fait aucun doute. Je suis repartie le cœur débordant d'amour et de lumière, avec le précieux rappel de rester ancrée dans l'instant présent. Ce lieu magique occupera à jamais une place privilégiée dans mon cœur. Merci, André, du fond du cœur. Eng: Words cannot express my experience at Andre’s. His place is part of a different world, a more simpler world. He provided a welcoming, safe space to just be. The food was so fresh and the water so pure. It was wonderful to know where the source of it all came from. I loved going to the well and filling up the bucket. I loved the magical forest. i loved the tibetan singing bowl baths that opened up my soul. Work consisted of organising, cleaning, helping with a mosaic, helping at his friend’s house and most importantly, coming back to spirit and love. I came barely knowing any French. Everyday, he helped me learn different phrases and how to properly pronounce words. Overall, it was a truly transformative experience for me and I will be forever grateful for having met such him. He’s a Saint, there is no question about it. I left with my heart filled with abundance of love and light and the reminder to stay in the present moment. This magical place will forever hold a special place in my heart. Thank you Andre, from the bottom of my heart.

Alex has lived with us for eight months and has been a total delight. She has been wonderful with our boys who totally love her - and also a genuinely kind, thoughtful, diligent member of the household. She is a great cook and always goes out of her way to help, has been conscientious and just a genuinely lovely human. We will miss her!

Matt spent two weeks with us through Workaway and was a real plus to have around. He pitched in with the garden weeding and general upkeep without needing hand-holding. He also happily joined us on walks and bike rides, which made things feel more like a shared routine than a chore list. Reliable, easygoing, and up for anything, he’d be a solid help for anyone looking for a practical, good-humored guest.

I’m happy to recommend Rune, who stayed with us as a workawayer for two weeks. He joined our daily life here in Alfafara, practiced Spanish with us each day, and quickly picked up enough to handle garden tasks and everyday chat. He helped prune our olive trees, kept up with gardening, and pitched in with cleaning around the house; always reliable and cheerful. Rune’s easygoing attitude and willingness to learn made him a great guest and helper. I’d welcome him back anytime. Best regards.

Alexandra and Jurgen are Workaway volunteers you will never forget. They are dedicated, meticulous, sensitive, very very courageous, and committed to doing a job well, with great care and love. They have really done a job of great quality in our garden and house. Jurgen will enjoy playing Tarzan in your trees :-) Alex Will enjoy to speak French :-) They are truly, truly delightful guests you can meet. They are the BEST WORKAWAY you can find in your Life !!! Welcome them with love and take good care of them, because they fully deserve it. With all our gratitude, Sandrine and Charly

I had such a wonderful time in Kunja and actually ended up staying a week longer than I had originally planned. Everyone was incredibly friendly and made sure I had everything I needed from the very beginning. I was able to go grocery shopping and cook my own meals, which I really enjoyed. Every now and then we also had delicious meals together with the community, which was always very nice. While I was there, I was the only volunteer, so I had plenty of time to myself. Still, I never felt lonely because there were always many people and children around. Whenever someone went on an outing—for example to Odense or one of the nearby islands—I was often invited to come along. It was also easy to explore the surrounding towns and forests on foot, by bike or train. Many of the children spoke English, so it was easy to communicate and play together. I spent a lot of time outdoors working in the vegetable gardens—planting potatoes and strawberries, spreading compost on the beds, and much more. When the weather was bad, I could take on tasks inside the house. Thank you, Kunja, for the wonderful time! It was so nice to meet you all, and I would love to come again someday :)

the volunteer was absolutely everything I need. Jennyfer trusted me, and let me do the job on my own pace, which I loved a lot. the place is quiet, people on the island are super friendly. the fact that you can go on the mainland very easily is a plus. I felt so safe and welcomed, thank you again 🙏🏽

I was welcomed into the T&S Equine family for just shy of three weeks from March - April 2026, my only regret is that I could not have spent more time with these great people at this amazing Workaway. Clare was immediately communicative and informative before I arrived, making sure all expectations were clear. The location is in the serene Serranía de Ronda near a small but picturesque village with several great bars. Clare taught me the morning routine with the horses and was very patient from the start. knowing me to be a complete novice. For a few additional work hours each week, I received some training and learned a lot about no-force horsemanship, the entire process was fascinating and Clare's expertise and enthusiasm really lent itself to her pedagogical approach. I loved spending time getting to know the family and friends, having long talks, drinks, going to Ronda and local places together, this really made me feel like a part of the extended family. Chico, though I saw less of him, was also extremely kind, seriously if you have even the vaguest interest in Spanish rock music, speak to this man! I've been away from this place for a few days now and still feel like I'm withdrawing (in the best possible way), I miss the village, work, surrounding campo, animals, but most of all the people! I fully endorse this workaway to anyone, experienced in horsemanship or with zero knowledge, it doesn't matter. Thank you all again and I look forward to visiting again y obviamente seguimos en contacto. Un abrazo fuerte a todos! P.S. Please give Bandolera a belly rub from me.

Jula is such warm, gentle, caring person. You'll feel at ease with her right away. I loved her presence here in my home, as her personality matches my own very much. She helped me out with mainly cleaning tasks and taking care of my dog which I can easily entrust her with. She is very attuned to animals and her environment. I would certainly host her again if the opportunity ever comes. Thank you Jula!

Staying with Ewan and Berts in Castalla was an amazing experience. I messaged them last minute when I had a change of plans in Alicante, and from one day to the next, I was meeting Ewan and Berts at the beach and going to Berts' parents' house for lunch. I'd never volunteered with a family before, and this was my second ever workaway. I knew that we'd have a good time, but I didn't know what to expect. But from the moment we met, I felt comfortable and welcomed. Ewan is such an awesome person, full of personality, energy and ideas. He always had a good vibe and made me laugh a lot. We invented a new game at the beach called "castle joiosa". Berts is a true gent, he cares a lot about the cultural exchange and together us 3 went to many different places: chocolate factory, different beaches, elephant Mountain, Alcoi. I even was a special guest at Berts english class and did a presentation about Australia. I am really grateful I got to have this experience, it meant a lot to me. Even though I was only there just over a week I feel like I have a home in Castalla. I look forward to staying in touch and meeting again along the way. Come visit me in Tasmania!

We had the most amazing time volunteering at the camp. We got involved with the other staff, Volunteers and all the hostel goers, and made some great memories. Can was a great host and provided everything we needed for a comfortable workaway and stay. Kas is a lovely town to explore and lots to see and do. We will miss the team. Thank you 🙏.

This was my first workaway experience and I would say I had a good time. The job is simple and easy to get familiar with. After a day or two I became responsible for certain jobs and it all became a routine. I would roll up tarps, clean water bottles, help with feeding, collecting eggs and cleaning the coops or washing bamboo. Pong, Chang and Joy are amazing people who always took time to reply to all my arising questions regarding the farm, thai culture or just life in the village. They are kind and selfless people with a huge smile on their faces at all times. Keet had been away so we didn't have the time to interact much. I have been wanting to work in a farm for a while and my goal was also to be in nature and stay with locals. I am also a big fan of chickens so it was a plus. However I think there are certain things that need to be mentioned. After the video call with Keet it became clear that it was a chicken farm experience rather than a fresh produce farm and that the job can be physically demanding. Upon arrival I was told that I'd be working 7 hours a day as opposed to the 4-5 hours mentioned in the description. Due to sickness of one of the workers during my stay, the hours elevated to 8-9 hours. Seeing Chang, Joy and Pong work so hard all day, every day and knowing that I was staying only for a short period of time, I did not mind this at all. Nonetheless in my opinion this must be communicated clearly with the volunteers in advance to avoid misunderstanding and dissatisfaction. All in all I am happy to have stayed at the farm and did have a meaningful and rewarding 3 weeks.

Miriam is a very lovely girl! We really enjoyed her staying with us!! She helped above and beyond with the animals and really threw herself into helping with all our activities!! Thanks Miriam !!

Sara is a beautiful soul. Very kind and loves life. During the month that she stayed with our family her English improved loads, and her confidence in herself and her ability to engage with others both in the house and in the community blossomed. It was I really beautiful journey to have had the pleasure to witness and observe. Sara was eager to learn and loved helping out around the house and cooking family meals. There wasn't anything that she didn't want to try and she thoroughly enjoyed learning new things and activities. Myself and my two children really enjoyed hosting her, we'd highly recommend her for any future host, and we wish her all the best for the future.

Our experience with Richard was brilliant. He was very helpful at all times; the house is spacious and the room offers plenty of privacy. As for the meals, they were fantastic, varied and very healthy. We’re taking home some great memories and a new friend. We’d 100% recommend staying with Richard.

We stayed with Olaug and Bjørn for two weeks, and it was a wonderful time. They are both very warm and welcoming, there was always more than enough food, and the organization of the working hours was more than fair. The accommodation is in a separate house about 5 minutes from the main house, and it is big and comfortable. The location right by the lake is perfect for spending your free time. The surrounding forests are great for hikes, and we also enjoyed trips with Olaug to the nearest town. We would come back anytime. Thank you both very much!

It was a pleasure to have both Kim and Mark at our farm. They are two mature individuals with a great work ethic and many skills to offer. They were enthusiastic and fun to have around and I would recommend them both to any future host.

It was a true pleasure having you at our school. Your energy and dedication to the students were inspiring, and you truly became a part of our community during your stay. The children loved your lessons, and the positive atmosphere you brought to the classroom will be missed. Thank you for your hard work and for sharing your skills with us. You are always welcome back!
