Chaman and his family are without any doubt the best people we have met during our journey. They immediately welcomed us and made us feel at home, creating bonds that will last over time. Thanks to Chaman, we deepened our understanding of the culture and customs of Rajasthan, immersing ourselves for a week in the Indian countryside, among animals, sand dunes and unspoiled nature. It was fascinating to listen to Chaman talk about his land and his future projects, we can't wait to return to see the progress and improvements. Spending time with him enriched us as human beings, and we could not have made a better choice than coming to Samrau. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts, Chaman, Neha, Sumi, Cheran, and all the other wonderful people, spending time with you was a pleasure and an honour for us. You will always be our Indian family! See you soon ♥️

This was my first Workaway experience and it was honestly so amazing, incredible. Lucia is such a wonderful person, kind, funny, very open minded and Genuine, Also Pier Ganni is a very likable character once you get to know him, Kaya, which is the dog, is a very nice little creature, very friendly/well behaved and lovely. There was always, amazing food, with a very genuine family-like atmosphere, which I absolutely loved, I felt so welcomed and home at Lucia's house and would love to come back one day. The work was very nice and I really enjoyed working outside, not really hard at all, mostly cutting, trimming, planting, aswell as some indoor stuff, Lucia also took us on trips to the market, the sea, etc and made me feel so welcomed, she is truly a beam of light in this day and age and I warmly recommend her house to anybody and everybody! Much love and many thanks! Ciaoo! ❤️

We spent 3 amazing weeks with this fun generous family. We were able to help with many tasks around their property, from helping in the garden with Anoek's Mum, turning the garden beds, maintaining the fledgling orchard and digging and storing 230kg of potatoes! Anoek and Julius are fantastic hosts who made sure we were comfortable with everything around their property and took the time to know our strengths and give tasks that we could accomplish for them. The whole family was so welcoming to us even though we couldn't speak Dutch, Anoek and Julius' English is really clear and they helped us learn a few Dutch words and sayings. They helped us celebrate Harrys birthday and taught us how to make an amazing vegan cheesecake- it was so enjoyable to share it together. They provided bikes for us for adventures on days off and for shopping, and gave us money to do our own shopping which allowed us independence for our dietary needs. The tiny home was well equipped to make the stay relaxing, it was so beautiful to wake up to the sun coming out through the oak trees or to have a small fire watching the sky turn from dusk to night. Each day either Julius or Anoek or both came to check in with how our day was going but also to chat with us to get to know us both which was very kind and thoughtful with their already busy schedule. Thankyou for a amazing time, we hope our paths cross again! Harry and Zoe

She is very responsible person. She helps by herself. Has comonsense and mature. She stayed with us for a month. Helped well seriously. Very good person.

Had a wonderful stay with Elke and Katia in Pouch Cove. It is located right by a section of the East Coast Trail, so if you like hiking or trail running this will be a Mecca for you. With the autumn colours my mouth dropped many times by the mix of vegetation colours and cliff views. I mostly helped out in the garden with various tasks and helped out with fixing up the fence for the goats and hens. Another major bonus of staying here was having the opportunity to hang out with and walk buddy who may be the sweetest dog in Newfoundland. Elke is very well connected in the community so you will most likely meet lots of interesting people if you stay here. Very thankful to have this as my first Workaway experience!

First of all, we missed all of you Dr. Karma, Dr. Tenzin, sister Raj, and of course the children (cats and dogs). We spent 10 days at this peaceful sanctuary. A spacious clean villa with a beautiful garden in a nice neighborhood. We had a clear enjoyable routine, especially the morning routine. waking up early to the meditation and the mindful movements (guided by Dr. Karma) were one our favorite parts. We're thankful that we got accepted as a couple to stay at the villa. We learned a lot about Buddhism and Sikhism. We particularly liked the Gurudwara (I hope it's spelled correctly). Things I only saw in movies, I got to see, experience, even wear clothes, ... ahhh what a wonderful memory! And gosh! sister Raj's food is incredibly yummy!! I missed singing together Hindi and Punjabi songs. We (Bassem and Meriam) are deeply grateful for this unforgettable experience with all of you. We wish you stay healthy and happy. Sending you much love

Filipe is a really friendly and easy-going guy. He helped us a lot in the garden and cooked for us. We especially enjoyed our conversations with him. He speaks many languages and lived as well as worked in different countries. It is really interesting when he share his insights about his experiences there. He also works as a teacher and could help us with the homework of our boys, which was amazing. We would always love to welcome him again - and hope that he will do that when he come backs after his world travel to share his experiences ;-)

I spent a bit over a month at this wonderful place and I really enjoyed it. I liked the work, especially the outside ones (there is a great view of the mountains), which were weeding, mulching, breaking up branches for the fire, bringing in turf and timber. Marie was very kind to me, she often offered to take me with her when she went to run some errands, so I could see a lot of the nearby area. I really enjoyed chatting with her, I learned a lot about Ireland and I also picked up a few Irish words thanks to her. Rover and Lexi were really cute and friendly, and they sometimes kept me company while working. I also liked going for a walk in the nearby mountains, which offered a picturesque view. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience Marie!

Laura is a wonderful young lady. It was a privilege to have a such a nice guests in my home. Laura can do tasks (such as cleaning and cooking) without supervizion. She knows what to do and she does the work responsibly, fast and well. When Laura came, I was in recovery after the injury (I could not walk ), Laura took care of the house and also of myself. Laura is kind, respectful, hard worker, honest, brave, trustworthy and greatful. Laura likes to learn new things with a positive attitude. She learns fast, too. Laura is a good teamleader , she can also work as a Members of a team and also independently. She speaks good English. Laura loves to discover new foods, new culture and new places. Laura stayed for less than 2 weeks. I wish she could stay for ever.

Jan is a nice and gentle man. He takes care of his guests and provides them with food and shelter. Your accomodation can vary between a tiny house, a tent or a room inside the house. The work for me included mostly gardening, digging and raking. But it can also include painting, cleaning and cooking depending on your interests and skills. The location is wonderful close to wonderful cliffs overlooking the sea and you can walk to Nazaré. You can also borrow bikes that he lends out. My favorite activity during the free time was probably to take bike rides and walks in the beautiful surroundings. I appreciate that Jan hosts multiple people at the same time so that I could have the opportunity to meet amazing people like Sean, Kicki, Feli and Luca. I also like that he let's the volunteers cook because it allows for great cultural exchange and fun experiences. Thank you Jan for this wonderful experience. I really appreciated it.

I had such a lovely time staying with Midori and her family in Fukui. It was a short visit, but every day felt warm, meaningful, and full of great moments. Midori has so much energy and passion. She took me to a vegan event and even a Halloween party! I was really inspired by how active she is in her community and how much she cares about people, sustainability, and cultural exchange. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and I left feeling very motivated and happy. She was incredibly kind to pick me up and drop me off at the station even though she was busy, I appreciated that so much. I also got to meet another Workawayer during my stay, and it was exciting to connect with someone from a different culture, share experiences, and learn from each other. Playing with the kids, enjoying homemade vegan food, and spending time in the peaceful countryside were all highlights. It felt cozy, real, and very special. Thank you so much, Midori, for welcoming me and letting me be part of your life for a few days. I learned a lot and felt truly at home. I hope to visit again someday, sending warm wishes to you and your lovely family!

If I was to get straight to the point, I would say to other hosts, "If these guys contact you, don't hesitate. Say YES" We had an incredibly positive experience with Francois Xavier, Jacqueline and their two wonderful children. They stayed with us for over two weeks. They are SUCH hard workers. All of them. Capable at all sorts of tasks from garden care to careful installation of internet. The highlight of the experience was probably the cultural exchange. Their daughter cooked for us. We had many conversations about culture and life. It felt like we made friends (as well as made SO much progress on our big, hot property). I will always be grateful to Workaway for making this connection. oh - one other thing - their Visas were initially delayed but we stayed in touch, and just as planned, the family fulfilled their initial plan to stay two weeks, in spite of the delay. They are people of their word.

Tyler is a wonderful young man. We were incredibly lucky to have him. He's active, intelligent, always willing to do his tasks and much more. We didn't need to tell him much; wherever he saw a need, he immediately took action, even outside of his agreed-upon hours and with tasks we hadn't even asked him to do. He's very resourceful, very decisive, and a pleasure to talk to and share stories and travel experiences with. I wish you continued success in achieving your goals and hope you'll always come back to visit us whenever you like. The door is always open for you. I'm so grateful to you, Tyler, for every little detail you show us regarding the farm, the horses, and everything else. Tyler is highly recommended and trustworthy. Thank you so much, Tyler!

Moises is an amazing person and I hope we all have the pleasure of seeing him again. He is welcome back at ANY TIME. He volunteered both at our local animal shelter and hostel, dedicating most of his time and heart to helping the animals. He is an exceptional person, hardworking, kind beyond belief, genuine, smart, and worldly. His positive energy is contagious, and he brings the best vibes wherever he goes. It’s rare to meet someone so inspiring at such a young age. Moises not only worked diligently but uplifted everyone around him. He is truly one of those people who make a lasting impact on your property, your team, and your life. If you ever have the chance to host or work with Moises, TAKE IT. If you don’t select him, you’re doing yourself a disservice.

We stayed at Eve and Andrew’s place as a couple for about 6 days in June this year and we had a wonderful time! The two of them are super welcoming and friendly and the dogs, cats, chickens, pigs and alpacas are very cute. We had our own tiny house with a fully equipped kitchen, a nice bathroom and a terrace with a view over the hills. We helped them with garden work, harvesting macadamia nuts and putting up a new chicken fence. We usually worked for about 4 hours a day, which left us with plenty of time to explore the beautiful surroundings, the small towns and the stunning coast. Eve and Andrew often cooked for us and the food we enjoyed together was always delicious! They made sure to show us their whole property with all the animals and we learned so much from them. We even went to friends of them together and they gave us many tips for the area. We can only recommend meeting Eve and Andrew and helping at their place as they are so friendly, the place is very beautiful, we learned a lot about gardening, chickens, pigs and alpacas and the food is amazing ;)

This was my first workaway ever and I stayed a month with Regina. I cannot express how special this time has been for me. I loved everything about the place - it was so beautiful, quiet and picturesque. Regina is such a sweet person. So kind and thoughtful. I am so happy to have met her. And the horses! I miss them every day. There is not a day that I do not think about one of those babies. The fact that the horses were all so playful and curious about humans shows how well Regina takes care of them. I loved my stay - the area is so beautiful and perfect if you enjoy long walks in the fields or in the forest. Plunge is such a nice city. I honestly cannot say enough good things about the horse ranch or Regina. I am so thankful for everything, and I want for sure to go there again.

What a nice time we had with Max!!! He is and has everything you want from a volunteer - hard working, educated, respecful of the space and time of others, thankful, passionate, knowleageable, intelligent and smart, good listener, good conversationalist, socially conscious, good eater, corageous, good learner… One of our best experiences with a workaway volunteer. He helped with work that was important for us to be done. He learned how to prune olive trees and he did a good job clearing and getting the fields ready for the olive harvest. He holds at least three records - having taken cold outside showers almost every day for three weeks (even in windy conditions, light rain and at night), having biked and hiked all the way to Tossal d’Engrilló (a six hour excursion from our place) and having been the first volunteer to bike to the river Algars at the Assut de Lledó to take a swim. He kept the cottage very clean, which we appreciated and value. He ate easily twice as much as a very hungry human being, which we also liked since we like people to enjoy our cooking. We also took him around to experience Catalunya, our culture and history, and we saw him genuinely interested and drawn to it. He had a deep dive into the Catalan way of doing things and lifestyle and we think he appreciated it and understood it quite well. It was simply a worderful experience to share our time and work with Max. Very highly recommended to any host.

Mélina stayed with us during 10 wonderful days in end of october. She has such a positive attitude no matter what kind of work needs to be done! Very helpful! Mélina was very eager to finish all her tasks quickly and in a very good and efficient way. She is really enduring and powerful! After a full work day she would still have a lot of energy to go for a long run in the woods nearby or to help preparing the dinner. She also did great helping around the house - and always with a smile! And we had some good laughs together in the evening playing cards. If you have the chance to host Mélina do not hesitate to invite her!
