Description
Hello! We're Julia and Henry.
We'll be coming to the UK in September 2024 and are looking to contribute to the communities we visit through Workaway.
We're keen to apply our skills to a wide range of skills; Julia is passionate about sustainability, and loves working outdoors and learning new DIY skills while Henry loves working with people and animals, and has a keen interest in the creative arts
We're resourceful, motivated, and eager to learn and help out wherever we can, both independently and as a couple.
We look forward to meeting you!

I just now read that Julia is only 19- WOW I am even more impressed!
We can only thank Julia for her wonderful presence, tireless work, open mind and heart!
She is sharpe- minded, kind person with a good kind of humour and humble attitude.
You couldn´t ask for more. Wish to see you again, dear Julia, all the best!!

What a place! This is a group of beautiful people who call a magnificent old house nestled in the mountains their home.
Throughout my 2 week stay, the work was very varied; anything from cooking, to cleaning and gardening. What didn't change though was that everyone worked together with a wonderful, positive attitude. There are lots of… read more

Julia was here for a month and she was a perfect match for our family. When she left it basically felt like I lost one of my limbs.
She was absolutely great with the kids, played games and worked alongside the eldest as if it was all she'd ever done.
She was a complete Duracell bunny in regards to working, and really seemed too enjoy it - that… read more

I was really lucky to be invited to volunteer with Signe and Dennis in Thisted. Their home is a beautiful place full of beautiful people living by a beautiful philosophy.
The work I was involved with was varied and interesting. Gardening, construction and cooking were just some of the things I was involved in. Signe and Dennis give volunteers a… read more

I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to be welcomed into the community here. It was like being welcomed into another world, a world where time seems to go too quickly! It seems everyone who is involved with the theatre, whether they be artists, volunteers or Bea herself has a story to tell. Even the walls of the old building will speak… read more

I spent 4 weeks at the temple during October and November. From the time I arrived, it was clear to me that I was in the presence of a community of people who are genuinely happy and dedicated to their chosen way of life. The way in which the Hare Krishna philosophy was infused into each aspect of daily life was a lesson in how life can be given… read more

Julia is a brave, kind, honest, hard-working, dedicated and pleasant woman. Her search for knowledge and experiences is sincere and she has an extraordinary openness and ability to learn. She is also very good at what she does and I never had to explain something more than once. She walked right in, took care of the house and animals, learned how… read more

My stay with Cathrine on Orø was fantastic. Cathrine is a gracious host who is always willing to share her wealth of knowledge.
Throughout my stay, I had the opportunity to be involved with a variety of tasks and learn many new skills. Aside from being a beautiful place to just 'be', Cathine's permaculture garden was a clear example of the… read more
