I worked at the hotel as a dishwasher for almost four months. It's a family-run hotel. They work alongside you. I had a single room at the hotel, and they provided all my meals every day, including my days off.It helped me a lot in learning Italian. It's a shame I couldn't experience the town in the summer, because it must be very beautiful.The whole family was always very kind to me, especially Miriam and Silvia. I recommend it. A big hug.

Our two weeks in Ischia flew by. This island is truly amazing, full of beautiful places to discover and fascinating vegetation. Claudio has a deep knowledge of the island, and it’s clear how much he loves and appreciates its nature. Claudio also cared deeply about making sure that everyone staying with him understood the purpose of their time there and had clear, shared expectations. He has great respect for his guests, and just like for us, clear and understandable communication throughout the entire experience was important to him. We got to experience hiking in the mountains, riding electric bikes, and kayaking – unforgettable adventures and a surreal experience. Claudio also taught us how to prepare different Italian dishes that were simple yet incredibly delicious. It was a memorable and eye-opening experience for us. We hope that open-minded and understanding people will cross paths with Claudio – those who genuinely value his way of life- simple living where shared joy becomes greater. Grazie 🙏

If there were a prize for the best Workawayers of 2025, Sophie and Søren would undoubtedly take first place. It had been a long time since we felt such a natural connection with a Workaway couple—with them, it truly felt like we were living as one big family, sharing not only responsibilities but also laughter, stories, and many special moments. Over the two months they stayed with us, we had the pleasure of enjoying a number of cultural outings together, adding depth and joy to our time. Sophie and Søren are thoughtful, intelligent, and incredibly respectful. They are exceptionally clean, organized, and proactive—qualities that made our daily life run smoothly and helped us accomplish a great deal. Thanks to their presence, we were able to move forward with several important home and garden projects: we worked on preparing the area dedicated to art and music events, pruning and organizing the garden, repairing the wood shed, and oiling the doors. Every task became lighter and more enjoyable when done alongside them, thanks to their enthusiasm and teamwork. One especially touching memory is how Søren’s passion for film photography inspired both our neighbor and Pippo to begin building a darkroom to support his creative journey—an example of how their presence brought inspiration into our home. We already miss them and truly hope to welcome them back to Giaveno someday. Dear Sophie and Søren—may your path be filled with beauty, love, and light. Keep being exactly who you are ❤️

Fue una muy buena experiencia poder vivir y trabajar aquí. Disfruté mucho viviendo con Pili y José . Y el chef José cocina bien ;) El sentimiento de comunidad dentro de la familia, con los amigos y los habitantes del pueblo fue especialmente importante para mí. Gracias por el buen rato.

They were very kind and reliable. For example when they stayed all night to catch a cat and so on. They were also respectful and hard working. I wholeheartly recommend them and it was a pleasure to have them over here.

It has been an absolute pleasure being Workawayers with Cristiana and Pippo. They are warm and welcoming hosts who made us feel at home from day one! In addition to Cristiana and Pippo, we’ve had the joy of sharing our daily life with their sweet cats, Leo and Nino, and their wonderful dogs, Babarbuc and Punch. We will miss all six of them dearly. The work tasks were fair, and the schedule was very flexible, which we truly appreciated. We felt that Cristiana and Pippo genuinely valued our skills and the way we took initiative—there was a strong sense of mutual respect and appreciation. It meant a lot to us to feel that our enthusiasm and self-motivation were recognized and welcomed. Søren has a great passion for film photography, and it touched us deeply that both our neighbor and Pippo began working on creating a darkroom to support and encourage his passion. That gesture truly reflects the kindness and thoughtfulness of the people we’ve been surrounded by during our stay. The apartment we stayed in was fantastic—bright, comfortable, and with a huge balcony. Giaveno is a beautiful and charming town that we really enjoyed living in, and the best coffee bar in town is just 20 meters from the front door! This has truly been a wonderful Workaway experience with Cristiana and Pippo, and we hope to visit them again someday! ❤️

If you’re interested in engaging with women from the local community through vocational training within the areas of work that the project offers - you’re in the right place. Accommodation is very nice and of high western standards. The area is safe to stay and the long term team, other volunteers and local staff are super kind. All my best recommendations for upcoming volunteers. If you really want to get the most out of this experience, intermediate Portuguese skills will be needed, at least to be able to conduct lessons or other tasks on your own.

Absolute perfect workaways! Great amazing workers, super kind and friendly and easy to accomodate! Happy to have back anytime :)

Participating in this project has been one of the most gratifying and enriching experiences of my life. Leading the English sessions has taught me so much, both about teaching and about connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Although the project is still in its early stages, the strong support within the team and the enthusiastic engagement of the community make every effort worthwhile. I had the privilege of leading two groups: one comprised of very fluent English speakers with whom I ran a Speaking Club, and another group of beginners who progressed to nearly conversational levels. Both groups were highly motivated and actively engaged with the materials and activities, which made the teaching experience incredibly rewarding. San Luis itself is nothing short of paradise. It stands out as one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited, not just in Colombia, but anywhere in the world. If you are looking to improve your speaking and teaching skills while being surrounded by breathtaking mountains, rivers, waterfalls, and genuinely warm and welcoming people, this project offers an exceptional opportunity

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting Fabian as a volunteer, and we couldn't be more grateful for his time, energy, and kindness. Fabian is incredibly responsible, communicative, and adaptable. He approached every task – whether it was helping with the animals, working in the garden, or supporting event organization – with dedication, respect, and a positive attitude. He fit perfectly into our team, bringing smiles, stories, and inspiration. The nature, animals, and our whole community loved him, and we truly hope he will return to us someday! We wholeheartedly recommend Fabian to any host looking for a volunteer with a golden heart and a genuine passion for helping.

She worked so hard and was so great to have around. She was full of energy and really cared about the quality of her work. She took initiative to do the dishes and take the dog out as well. She got along great and was a positive influence on my teenage daughter. I would definitely recommend her and am open to hosting her again.

Aava was a wonderful volunteer and a true asset to our team. She took her work seriously and was always ready to lend a helping hand wherever needed. Aava is easygoing, respectful, and maintained a clean and organized space. Her positive attitude and strong work ethic made her a pleasure to host. We highly recommend her to any future host—she's a great Workawayer!

It has been a great honour to meet Christina. She is very hard working, friendly and open minded person.

We were really looking forward to helping out on the farm and we weren't disappointed. Steve enjoyed helping out with the more physical tasks whilst Fiona did a bit of planting and looking after the dogs. Francie and Christoph are the most generous, kind, helpful, knowledgeable and down to earth people you could wish to meet and their daughter is sweet, sassy and very competive - we loved playing card and board games with her. Christoph can build or fix absolutely anything and Francie is one of the most determined yet sweet people we've ever met. Together they make the perfect family and made us part of that family. They went out of their way to help us and taught us a lot about horses, baking, being self sufficient, reducing food waste etc. We will miss their way of life and the excellent meals they cooked every night. We would absolutely recommend Francie and Christoph. Wonderful hosts but more importantly, wonderful people. Put simply, we live in a self sufficient motorhome with our own income stream and we're travelling the world. We stopped by to see what farm life was about and maybe stay for a week and yet enjoyed it so much, we stayed for a month. If it wasn't for visas not allowing us, we would have stayed forever.

The best volunteering you can find! The hotel is great and the rooftop is just incredible! Juliette and Sergio are so nice, we had a lot of fun, and they offered us food from time to time, which was also really great. The work was really good, we worked on the construction of the new hostel opposite. And we really loved San Cristobal. In short, we recommend it 100%. :)

We had the wonderful opportunity to spend four weeks with Jeff and Liz, and it turned out to be an incredibly fulfilling work exchange. From the moment we arrived, they welcomed us warmly, making us feel like part of their family. Their attentiveness to our needs created a comfortable atmosphere that enhanced our experience. Sharing meals together became a highlight of our stay, as we exchanged life stories and discussed various topics. Liz's culinary skills truly impressed us, especially her extensive spice collection, ingredients and knowledge of diverse cuisines. Meanwhile, Jeff showcased his expertise in gardening and machinery, working alongside us on tasks like mowing the lawn, weeding, and building a trellis for the tomato plants. We planted rows of potatoes, trimmed tree branches, removed brambles, and completed various indoor and outdoor painting jobs. His hands-on approach and array of tools made our work not only easier but also more enjoyable. On our days off, we were encouraged to explore the nearby towns, which we did by visiting Cognac by train, Angouleme by bus, and Barbezieux by bike, thanks to the bicycles they provided. The convenience of the bus stop and Jeff's kind offer to drive us to the train station made our adventures even more accessible. We are truly grateful to Jeff and Liz for their hospitality and for allowing us to be a part of their lives. We hope they continue to enjoy their beautiful home and garden as much as we cherished the time spent improving it together.

Miguel arrived as a quiet and discreet volunteer, gently finding his place within our community. It was a joy to witness him open up more each day, gradually embracing our way of living and connecting with those around him. As he began to share more of himself, we discovered a truly sweet and kind person who loves to connect and share with others. He proved to be an incredibly hard worker, consistently going above and beyond, both in the time he dedicated and the care he put into every task. Miguel often took initiative, doing far more than what was asked without ever seeking recognition. His presence brought a steady, humble, and warm energy, and we would be happy to welcome him back anytime.

We thank very much Lore first of all as parents, because seeing such a loving person with our daughter can only make us happy. Observing her overflowing happiness in being with her is at the same time ours. The quality of the time she dedicated her, the attention, the care, the teachings and everything else have also filled the atmosphere with joy and delicacy. As for the rest, it was not only the help she gave us that was precious, but having brought it with a collaborative, empathetic, playful and affectionate attitude. In addition, meeting people like her, who show that they find stimulation and inspiration from what we are doing, warms the heart and repays for the many energies spent. Looking even further, to what she told us about herself, opening her heart to us without fear, her lucidity in listening to and courageously going for what is best for her in life is a lesson that is always precious. Leaving, she leaves an emptiness, but also a fullness.

Staying at the ranch for three weeks was an incredible experience. We have to warn you, it is quite different from the other workaways we previously had, were there are set hours, and days off. You need to know this volunteering is very demanding in terms of hours. We were available from 8 in the morning, to drive to town and get some people, to 11 at night, to drive to town again and drop off the cook. In between there was always something to do, with a couple hours to relax, usually before dinner. Moments off are when there are no tourists, and it can be rare. That being said, let's talk about the good stuff. The work was easy, it's mostly setting and clearing the table, drying the dishes and translating, with a bit of driving. We met so many people and are still in contact with some of the guests that came, it's great to share these amazing moments with them. We got to ride horses everyday, get better at it (I hope) and feel more confident. The food is great, more than unlimited, as is the wine, it's a battle to say "no more" :) And to top it all, we felt like we were part of the family. Thank you Enrique, Fede, Pame and everyone for making us feel at home, for the talks and the laughs, and for the cheese ❤️ Last thing, when we were there last month, they couldn't access their workaway account, so don't hesitate to contact them directly from the ranch website

I stayed at Daniela's for over a week and truly enjoyed every day of my stay. She was incredibly kind and attentive, making me feel like a close friend, one that I hope to keep for life. Daniela provided clear and helpful instructions for taking care of the cats, who are absolutely adorable and very well-behaved. The house is beautifully surrounded by nature and offers stunning views of the mountains. I highly recommend this opportunity if you’re seeking peace, animal companionship, and still need reliable internet access. This opportunity provided a perfect balance of tranquility and connectivity!
