Descrição
I have been doing Workaway now for five years, the first year with my daughter and then on my own. I have my own accommodation, if necessary, being a self converted mini bus to motorhome. I also have a small travelling companion, Oscar, my Bichon Bolognaise. I have been helping out Shirley, a now good friend, for about two years helping look after her many dogs, general maintenance about the house and property, cleaning, decorating, gardening and cooking. There will be pictures of work I have done. Anything else you need to know please do not hesitate to ask.

I stayed at Marcha' s for two weeks. I was welcomed and there is plenty to do. Marcia keeps a white board to remind herself of things that need doing which is very useful and a requirement of common sense and ability to work under your own steam is necessary. Martha's profile is true re cooking your own meals as the family timetable is a bit… read more

Another successful workaway experience with Jacqui and Hannah. Really appreciated their help, especially with the changeovers in our gite, which we would not have managed without them. Completely competent to be left unsupervised and using their own initiative for all manner of tasks. The garden and the house look great! (I promise to look… read more

Phillipa and Allan were our last hosts before we returned to UK and we certainly ended this trip in style. They are a lovely couple and we felt very comfortable with them and had a great month. The work was varied, Hannah got stuck into painting fences and furniture and Jacqui into gardening, wallpapering and office stuff together with a combined… read more

We were only a week with Josep-Miquel and Imma and really enjoyed our stay with them. They are a lovely couple and made us very welcome. We helped finish off the irrigation system, clearing weeds and helping at meal times. It's very hot so a swim in the nearby reservoir is very welcome and the view is from picture postcard scenes. It would be… read more

We stayed with Ele and her mum for two weeks although Ele had to go back to UK for most of that time so we kept Elsabe company. In that time we helped clean up the yard, shifting sand and rubble and tidying. Inside the cave we organised the storeroom, painted, chipped out a small alcove and holes for curtain and wardrobe rails, helped with… read more

Jacqui and Hannah make a good team and I enjoyed their stay with me. Jacqui is amazing and is not daunted by any task. She made a super cupboard under my stairs and shelves to keep my stuff in order. She painted the stairs, front door and bedroom door. Always anticipating what had to be done., and sharing. In the other chores. She also… read more

Jaqui and here daughter, Hannah, stayed with me for about 3 weeks. They were great helpers and always did their tasks without complaint. They helped with gardening, pruning trees, decorating and everyday household chores, they were no trouble whatsoever and are two great people.

Russell is a great host, the work is interesting and varied but never exceeding a person's capabilities. We painted, cleaned, and helped with necessary seasonable chores around the garden and land. Russell has a lovely home and the rooms we were given were very clean and comfortable. Russell is a very good cook (his home made chips are a treat).… read more

Jacqui and Hannah are excellent helpers. They are 100% reliable and worked hard on a number of projects, both outside in the garden and with the animals and inside on housework and renovation jobs. Jacqui is a problem-solver with good DIY skills, and she also demonstrated superior office skills by sorting through and filing some paperwork that had… read more
