George was a great and attentive host. He communicates tasks clearly and was very helpful with recommending me cultural activities and learning opportunities in the region. Additionaly, he takes great care of keeping the jobs you'll do varied and interesting. I learned a lot about working with cattle amongst other things during my stay. I ended up only staying with George and Polly for 10 days but I feel like we accomplished quite a bit during that time.

I spent a week in July on the farm and I met the most amazing people there (other workawyers, the children, Tofu and Grace - the local volunteers-). It was a pure joy to work with animals and teach English and live like a local. The area has an incredible waterfall nearby and well located if you want to make a stop during traveling from South to North i(or opposite) in Vietnam. 🇻🇳

We had the amazing opportunity to stay at Andreas' summerhouse in Kulhuse and experience the first Vipassana silent retreat. The work consisted of cooking during the retreat and painting some windows. Instructions were always very clear and manageable and we had great flexibility in organizing our schedule. We went on a lot of great walks / runs / rides / swims to explore the beautiful surroundings in Kulhuse and even got to visit Copenhagen. Andreas was very welcoming and he always made sure we were comfortable. We are extremely grateful for our stay in Kulhuse and would gladly recommend Andreas as a host for his upcoming projects !

I stayed with Milka and her family for a month, and honestly, from the first moment I arrived, I felt like part of the family. They are very welcoming, and I was able to play with the kids, go for walks, and cook with them. The place is beautiful, and the house is located next to a gorgeous forest that you can explore however you want. I also really connected with Abi, the dog, and I wanted to go for a walk with him. It was a very relaxing activity with beautiful scenery. I also met other lovely workawayers, and the time with them flew by! I will miss them and hope to return soon to do all the activities we wanted to do together! I send them a big hug, and I'll see you soon!

This was my first workaway experience and a good way to get to know this way of staying abroad. The Art Center is a quiet place surrounded by fields and nature, perfect for workawayers who are looking for a break from the hustle and bustle of city life. But there are also events like dinners and the like where you'll meet plenty of new, interesting and friendly people. The house itself is fascinating with a beautiful sitting room and a well equipped kitchen. The work is fair and varied, I especially enjoyed working in the garden. Deej was always available in person or via text and often offered to take us along for a ride to the nearby towns

I stayed here for three weeks this September and had a great and memorable time there, which is why I can really recommend this place to anyone who likes nature (lakes and forest) and is interested in meeting new people from all over the world! During my stay I got to meet three other workawayers who stayed there temporarily like me, and two artists, with which I had really interesting and nice conversations. Plus some people who just visited the place for a few hours for different reasons. In addition, there are John and Thomas who are staying here for a longer period of time (planning to stay there more or less permanently I think) as “creative supporters”. And you will of course also meet Gonçalo (who’s the boss), but because he is living an about half an hour drive away from here he can’t come there really often. They were all really kind and lovely people! When you arrive there your main contact person will probably be John, who got there about a year ago and is now basically the manager of the building and the people arriving. He is a really nice person who is open to telling stories about the place or his former life for those interested. John also showed us a few really stunning places in and near. As a workawayer you will have to work about five hours a day from monday to friday, which is totally fine and can also be a lot of fun. My tasks were mainly continuing with building the outdoor sauna on all the days where it wasn’t raining. When the weather was bad we had tasks like organising the workshop, cleaning often-used rooms in the school or even trying to repair some broken bikes. In return you will get your own cozy little cabin for sleeping and free access to yummy and healthy food plus a kitchen. But we had minimum one meal a day together so cooking just for yourself wasn’t often the case, which was cool! In your free time you can explore the surrounding nature by foot or riding one of the bikes there. If you are lucky you will even see some reindeers! Or you can stay in the school building on rainy days, where there are many different kinds of labs (for dancing, painting, making music, etc.). And if you think you aren’t such a creative person you can just watch tv or play pool :). My personal highlight was seeing the aurora in two nights, it was absolutely amazing! So thanks to all the people I met there, who made my first workaway experience super cool!

Cliodhna was a fantastic workawayer! Very friendly, always smiling and in a good mood and she helped me so much! I am very grateful that this wonderful nice lady stayed in my house at a moment when I needed realy help, because I just got out of hospital. She was always arround me to give me a hand and she was so nice with my little dog Pepa! I will miss her and I can recommand her to all hosts!

Vera is a super friendly, flexible and hard working person. Someone you can hand a task and be sure it gets done. It was also great to hear about and discuss her plans for her eco-future. It was great having her over for the 2 week stay. @Vera we hope to see you again to show all developments here and to hear about your.

Norman è stato un amico prezioso.. con lui abbiamo fatti passeggiate e esplorato i dintorni. Sono stata sempre sicura di affidare Larry a lui. Ha avuto cura per la casa , il giardino e i nostri animali. Sempre presente e affettuoso!!! Auguri Takacs per il tuoi viaggi e il tuo futuro

I was very happy to receive Magdalena. She is very kind, very curious to learn new things. She help me a lot in the garden. She respect very well the home rules. We talk in French because she want learning more French. She cooking a recipe from her country, very good ! I will be happy to receive her again...

I had an incredible time at this place! This was my first volunteer experience and it couldn't have been any better. The location is simply perfect and Lydia and the rest of the staff were always very welcoming and generous. I had the chance to meet many locals and travelers, learn from them, visit beautiful places nearby, chill on the beach and enjoy the laid back environment while surrounded by wonderful people. I have had an amazing time that I will never forget, so I encourage everyone else to do it too! Thank you so much for having me, Pura Vida

I spent three weeks volunteering here. It was an incredible experience and I am so grateful for the extreme kindness, generosity, and patience that was shown to me by the teachers, cafe staff, Yao, Ke Sin, and of course John. I spent the majority of my working hours helping to reconstruct a treehouse. It was so much fun, I am genuinely contemplating changing my entire life trajectory and career aspirations. John is truly the most patient man I have ever met and I can say that I successfully know how to use many tools, install nets, floors, doors, and windows because of him. My other working hours consisted of helping out with the kindergarteners - leading them in song, reading books, accompanying them on a couple of hikes, and of course organizing a dance party or two. My third role was helping with the homestay, which was very straightforward basic housekeeping. You also get to accompanying the guests on a hike and Ke Sin is an exceptional guide who takes the time to share knowledge of the rainforest and the site throughout the hike. While you are there, you are free to sleep in any of the treehouses, classrooms, cafe or lobby. The sleeping arrangements are incredibly comfortable and it is truly magical to fall asleep to the sounds of the jungle. You can also hear the call to prayer, so if you are a light sleeper, perhaps bring earplugs. All meals are included while you are there (even on your off days) and trust me when I say that you will not have a bad meal or go hungry. Every single person is an exceptional chef! Thank you again everyone for an amazing experience, my heart feels full from the time I was able to spend in the classroom, building site, and sitting around a table with you all. If any future volunteers have questions, please feel free to message me. Much love to and may our paths cross again. <3

Tem was with us for three weeks and was an excellent workawayer. Her first week she helped us with remodeling tasks, and the last two weeks she helped us with reception, housekeeping, and bartending in our bar. She performed her duties excellently, mainly helping us with the reception software, which was a great help due to her extensive experience in hospitality. Tem is a great person, always willing to help, even at times when she was free. A sociable person, with great charisma, very proactive, and always with a smile. We will miss you very much, Tem. You are always welcome here. Highly recommended workawayer

Liebe Maureen, Lieber Adrien und Kids! bei euch daheim habe ich mich sofort wohl gefühlt und bin super dankbar für die schöne Woche! Meine Aufgabe war vor allem am späten Nachmittag mit der kleinen zu basteln, zu spielen oder einfach Hühner zu füttern. Ihr kleiner Bruder ist ein sehr entspanntes und neugieriges Krabbelbaby. Dabei war ich aber nie alleine mit den Kindern und konnte mir die alltäglichen Aktivitäten immer individuell mit den Eltern aufteilen. Wenn die Kinder im Bett waren, gab es abends auf dem Sofa eine Schmuseeinheit vom kuscheligen Kater Doy und Zeit um beisammenzusitzen, Klavier zu spielen oder für einen „Erwachsenen-Filmeabend“:) Der Wochenendausflug war für mich eine wunderbare Gelegenheit, die schöne Stadt Annecy zu erkunden. Ich kann die Familie jedem deutschen Workawayer wärmstens empfehlen, der das Familienleben mit kleinen Kindern kennenlernen möchte, gerne wandert, radelt oder einfach ein bisschen französische Luft schnuppern möchte. -Aber man muss natürlich keine Französischkenntnisse haben, weil alle sowieso super deutsch können😎 Alles Liebe und eine schöne weitere Elternzeit in Frankreich! Eure Feli

This is such a big and kind-hearted dog lovers family truly passionate about this project. Thanks to Carmen and to all the nice people met there. Will miss all the lovely perros and the peaceful vibe of this place!

I had such a wonderful experience with Sarah, Ray, and Noah! From the very beginning they welcomed me into their family, and I felt at home right away. I learned so much during my stay, and I’m really proud of the projects we completed together in the garden — it was rewarding to see the progress and to contribute to something meaningful. I also really enjoyed our conversations and the time we shared outside of work. I am so grateful that they took the time to show me around and make my stay even more special. They are truly wonderful people, and it has been so nice to keep in touch with them :) I totally recommend them to anyone considering a Workaway — you’ll learn, grow, and feel genuinely welcomed.

Eline was a terrific host! She was very responsive, generous, and accommodating with my situation. I never felt stressed or anxious as the instructions were perfectly communicated and Eline was always quick to reply to any questions I had. Castor and Amber are both amazing pets and I am lucky to have spent the time with them. Both are well behaved and affectionate. Thank you for allowing me to lend a hand, hope to see all three of you in the future!

Sebastian stayed with me for almost 3 weeks, where he most of the time was alone with my house and animals. Sebastian is very tidy and organized. We only had a few days together, but he is friendly and easy to talk to. And we rented kayaks thanks to Sebastian having been in Norway before and had taken a course which made it possible to rent kayaks to paddle on the fjords! Sebastian also had alot of free time during the day, and I think he enjoyed the peace and quiet and was able to explore the area a bit. Most of his responsibilities included taking care of the chickens and collecting eggs, taking my dog Alexa on daily walks and keeping her company. Also looking after my two cats, and keeping up with watering the plants in the greenhouse. He did a very good job! If he had any questions he did not hesitate to contact me while I was away. Sebastian is someone you can trust with leaving your house and animals with easily. I would recommend Sebastian as a workaway guest! Anyone needing a housesitter would feel at ease having Sebastian look after you house.
