Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 2

It was an absolute pleasure to have Kim stay with us for 6 weeks between October and November. She is great company and a wonderful person to have around, a very respectful guest, easy to chat to, she sees what needs to get done and does not need any guidance. She was helping us with household chores and cooking and she was really helpful and involved with the animals and in the garden. She was great with the kids, both girls really liked her a lot and loved to sit on her lap and hear a story or play a game together. We can all say that we made a new friend and are sure that this was not the last time we saw each other. From fun in the garden with the animals, a few excursions together, to many great chats and nice meals, we had a wonderful 6 weeks together. We would definitely love to have Kim visit us again any time!

David and Rachel were so sweet to us. We stayed for two weeks and enjoyed every second of it. Their place is beautiful with many possibilities of exploring. Byron Bay, Nimbin and beautiful national parks are very close aswell. Dottie and Jazz (their dogs) are the sweetest, and Rachels cooking is out of this world. Would highly recommend.

John and Fiona warmly welcomed us into their lives for a week. We stayed in their quaint little cabin about 5 mins walk away from the main house and woke up every morning to native birds chirping and a FANTASTIC view of the area. It was a truly wonderful experience being in the cabin by ourselves to soak in the view every morning and being surrounded by the greenery they created. Work was varied - we helped to thin their apple trees, chopped firewood, mowed grass and did weeding (gorse, blackberry, old man's beard). On days when the weather kept us indoors, we helped by cooking dinner and washing up. We would definitely recommend staying with John and Fiona.

This place was paradise on earth. We stayed for a whole month and would gladly have stayed the rest of our lives. The people were amazing and so welcoming. Shane is an amazing guy with an amazing mind. He helped us so much and showed us the way of an Aussie. We had an unforgettable experience and would definitely come back.

A unique experience at Jan's place! Amazing view, welcomin neighborhood, a nice cat, nomad way of living and Jan with his original personality and ideas about of life.

It's feels like we made a friend in Greece ! We had a wonderful time at Antigoni's place. We made a chicken coop, chopped wood, crushed wood, cooked and dug out trees... it's the perfect place if you want to get hands on and get work done in nature. Her place is located in a very small village where it's easy to go for a hike or walk your dog. She welcomed us and our dog Vaya with open arms and we're glad we got to spend this week with her. She was funny and easy to talk to. Antigoni shows you around for what needs to be done in the house, and then gives you the freedom to work according to your own schedule. Falemin...'fkaristo !

Very nice experience with Sayaka. She has been part of the family and helped a lot around the house and the garden. Highly recommended, Communication was not always easy since English level of Sayaka is medium.

I had a great time with Fabio and his family. They own a really nice place in the center of Puglia, a big land full of olive trees, figues, ancient walls, charmin buildings and lovely animals. Their project is really big and there are a lot of things to be done, so you can help in a variety of tasks depending on your skills, including gardening, construction, restoration, wood work, animal care, etc. I stayed one month and mostly help with agriculture, olive harvesting, pruning, clearing fields, gardening and taking care of the animals. I used to work from 6 to 7 hours per day, 5 days a week. The accomodation was very nice, a big house with all facilities, even a projector to watch movies XD but very cold in winter times. The communication with Fabio and Judit (and little Lila) was excellent, they were always open to hear my needs and points of view. I'll always be grateful for this time in their place. Thank you and see you next time!

Lupe and Tennyson came to pet and house sit while I was away and my two dogs adored them. They also did a very nice job of tidying up the garden ready for winter. They’re both happy, interesting and positive people and we had some great conversations. I miss their company and wish them well

We had a great stay by Troji. Starting with the accomodation, many rooms are offered in the guest house - dedicated to the workawayer and not shared. Each morning we had the chance to taste one of Troji's creations from the bakery : bread, brioche, pastries... a real delight ! Lunch and Diner were often shared with his family, either at one of their place or at the restaurant. They were all very kind to us and made us discover many chinese food we never tried before. Troji was really welcoming, always helping, and drove us around to discover the nature around his place. If the future allows us, we would really like to be able to come meet him again :)

Lena was a pleasure to host. She committed to the considerable projext of designing, painting and posting dozens of permaculture-themed signs and stuck to it. A great addition to the volunteer team, and a joy to have around. Thanks for the kindness and grest vibes you brought with you, Lena! Hope we see you again!

In one week, I grew enormously close to Ika and her family, She picked me up at the airport to take me to an English camp with young high school students. We had an incredible weekend where we were able to interact with the students. We had dinner with the teachers and attended a beautiful show put on by the young people to help them improve their English. Then we returned to the village where Ika lives with her parents and children. The food was just incredible - they love fish :) thanks grand ma <3 I was able to go for my first run in 25 years near the rice fields. I observed the structure of Ika's school and her daughter's school, as I plan to become a teacher. The whole neighbourhood is really welcoming. Then we tasted Gado Gado, and I loved continuing to eat this delicious dish for dinner <3 It was an excellent stay, where I discovered a local wedding and baby shower! Not to mention the cassava that I cut with the help of the neighbours ;) You can trust Ika with your eyes closed. I hope to have the chance to see you again. I miss you already. Darina

We spent 10 days with Tul. We did social media for her and her italian restaurants. We learnd a lot about Thai culture and food!! Overall we had a nice experince. Thank you!

I hosted Joel for a month, between November and December 2025, and I can simply say he's the perfect Workawayer! He's attentive and very responsible, and he carried out his assigned house maintenance tasks very well. He's definitely a hard worker, and he also loves football and sports. He's also interested in learning about Spanish culture and the Spanish language as well, all with a great sense of humor. Summing up, do not hesitate to meet Joel if you ever have the chance to do it!

I had a great time staying in Mike and Vinces beautiful house, gardening in the very large garden! Great hosts, great food and great advice on where to visit in my free time. Helpful and friendly, this was the perfect first workaway for me.

Kiara stayed with me for a week in November 2025. She helped me with cleaning, organising and gardening chores. She was very helpful, organised and a pleasure to have around. We had some lovely chats and she helped me with my open studio event.

Madoka was a great help in our home, she helped us with cleaning, delicious cooking and is patient, friendly and fun with the children. She was always aware of the safety and well-being of our children. He made a very good relationship with us and with our family in general. She is a person who likes to collaborate, mature, educated and her food is spectacular She is welcome to our home many more times. We are going to miss her a lot.

I volenteered for a week and I loved it we preperd the hostel for a surf weekend, cleaning and arranging the place for hosting. at day had a lot of time to enjoy the garden, the dogs, the sun, the beach, the towns around. and every night after dinner we talked a lot. I felt really safe to be myself, to host and cook and to take breaks when i needed. Mateo and Mar are amazing, funny and nice. they answerd gladly and patiently for every question i had about bioconstrucción and the area. thank you guys for giving me a home and a listening ear :-) I super recommend volenteering

Thanks to Pat and John, I spent a surprisingly fulfilling time despite my short stay for 6 days. Their land is peaceful, quiet and beautiful. It was a wonderful memory to relax and enjoy the sunset with them. I worked with John and amazed at his knowledge and skills about gardening, forest maintenance, bushfire management, electrical work and operating heavy machinery⋯etc. Pat is a very kind person and a great cook, and I enjoyed every meal she cooked. I am really inspired by not only their lifstyle but also their life itself. They know how to enjoy a life and are one of the happiest people I have ever met. Thank you so much for hosting me this time. I will be back in the near future.
