Farina & Sofea both worked as hard or harder than any other Workawayers we've hosted. They moved a mountain of grass mulch onto our field beds. They removed all the tools from the entranceway of our house and put them into a shed. They put walls and doors onto the shed to protect/secure the tools. They created a shoe/storage shelving system for… read more

We stayed for 2 weeks with Arana's family in Dec 2019, in an off-grid community at the foot of Cradle Mountain. Arana was away at work at Cradle Mountain until the last few days over Christmas when she swapped places with Nick. So we mostly had Nick & the kids for company, in addition to a few other Workawayers. Lorinna is a tranquil, breathtaking… read more

Where do I start when everything exceeded my expectations from beginning to end? Finding hosts that open their doors to a 10 year old - accompanied nonetheless - has never been easy, but Sam & Emma were beyond welcoming.

Farina and Sophia were just wonderful to host. Farina is doing an amazing job raising her beautiful daughter with all the right values and because of this they were a delight to have in our house. They are a dynamic duo with a strong ecological ethos and it was an absolute pleasure getting to know them. Farina has an incredible knack of tidying… read more

It was difficult to find a host close to Sydney that will accommodate both my 9 yr old daughter & I, and Rowan was one of the few who did. Maybe it was meant to be; we found genuine warmth, wholesome company and a sense of belonging within a week.. which, needless to say, prompted us to extend our stay.. my daughter's Ipad was abandoned all too… read more

We enjoyed having Farina and her very bubbly daughter Sofea stay with us and help us prepare for our Christmas party. Farina also did an amazing job sorting out my linen cupboard and I can now find everything easily! We would very much recommend them to any future hosts.

Alison & Geoff was very welcoming and accommodating right from the very beginning.. Unfortunately they had to fly off to Mexico for work-come-holiday commitments, yet they trust us to stay in their beautiful house in their absence and even offered us to use their car if we wanted to, in exchange for easy household chores. Not to mention the… read more

She helped hard when she was doing work that needed power, such as when carrying trees.It is because of her that she kept the kitchen clean, so that everyone can live comfortably. In this way she took a hard look at what she can do for us. Sophia was trying to adapt to the harsh environment, but I thought that I was wonderful. Thank you for… read more

The moment I saw how Miki handles her 2 children & work simultaneously, i knew that i will learn a lot. As a single mom juggling work, aged parents & a daughter, there's always room for improvement. Besides the obvious but varied work in the mornings / afternoon, depending on season & weather, there's many other things to do, learn & experience,… read more

My daughter & I spent 3 weeks on Pam's farm in Dec 2016 to make the long school holidays meaningful. What an awesome & first Workaway experience!!! Pam, Sam, Kaihla & DJ were extremely patient, understanding & accommodating to my 7 yr old city girl.. So she learns quickly to cope, adapt & enjoy the farm's remote & off-grid environment... Weeding,… read more
