Vorerst: Vielen Dank, dass ich Teil Eurer Familie sein durfte und erleben konnte, wie liebevoll ihr Euch um andere kümmert und wie wunderschön Südfrankreich mit so einer tollen Gesellschaft ist! Barbara's welcome was one of the best, hihi. I got so many hugs and so much love from her, and everything else I needed was taken care of by Michel and Valérie. The "sharing is caring" mentality was truly lived to the fullest! We ate a lot of fresh, local food, like fruit and vegetables from the farmers' market and fresh eggs from the chickens, who would always come to visit in the garden or during my pool breaks. And thanks to Valérie's cooking, we got to enjoy delicious homemade meals every day! It was very important to Michel to take me on trips and show me the area. Thanks to him, I got to discover so many beautiful places, and some of my favorite memories were made in Cassis:) They were always helpful and still are! They also gave me a great start with the French language and helped me whenever they could. It's a little safe space there, and I would recommend it to every girl who wants to become part of a lovely family in the South of France 💖 Thank you again for this special month, for all the care, the laughter, and the memories we shared together ✨ Bisous!!

Sandra and her son Nils were very kind and attentive to our family. As for their help, they were very independent and capable of doing many things! It was a pleasure to host them!

Charlie was incredibly helpful and accommodating. She gathered herbs and nettles, and was very patient while preparing and weaving the willow fencing—which now delights the eyes of passersby. She also painted a garden pillar that now adorns the magical garden.She helped clear the garden of the many broken branches after heavy storms. We also had many interesting conversations, too. Charlie is comfortable occupying herself and was always very helpful; she appreciates receiving clear instructions. Thank you for being so easygoing. gladly again.

Simone stayed with us for two weeks, helping in both of our homes. He is one of the best volunteers we have ever hosted, and we can wholeheartedly recommend him to any future host. He is an exceptionally calm, responsible, and trustworthy person. From the very beginning, we felt comfortable relying on him and giving him tasks independently. Simone is honest, dependable, and mature, and he is the kind of person you can trust with your home without hesitation. He approached every task with great care and attention to detail. His work was always completed to a high standard, and he consistently showed commitment and a strong work ethic. Whenever a project required extra time or effort, he was happy to help and never complained about working a little longer to get the job done properly. Beyond his work, Simone is a polite, respectful, and easy-going person who is a pleasure to have around. He adapted quickly to our lifestyle, respected house rules, and contributed to a positive atmosphere throughout his stay. Living and working together felt completely natural and stress-free. We are very grateful for all of his help and would be delighted to host him again in the future. We recommend Simone without any reservations and are confident that he will be a valuable addition to any host’s project.

I've stayed with Paola for three weeks and it was so nice. Paola is a wonderfull hostess. You will have your own room and bathroom. She cooks amazingly and although the agreement was, that I would make food for myself, did she cook a lot for both of us, or whoever was in the house at the time. My task where mostly surrounding the dogs. I throwed a lot of balls for Otto during my stay and we went on an 2/3 hour walk most days in the mountains. After that i walked Lady, usually a bit shorter. Then i did whatever Paola told me, from mowing the lawn to cleaning the backyard. Nothing to hard. In my freetime I sat a lot in the backgarden reading and chrocheting. During my days of I went on a daytrip to Milano, you can take the train very easily from Domodossola. If you need more places to go or inspiration, Paola and especially also Alessandra will help you with everything. During my stay, Paola went on a cycling tour to Germany. So i stayed alone with her sister and her parents. The live in the same house, but different entrance. They mostly speak Italian and as I didn't speak any, we mostly communicated with hands and feet. Everybody was so nice, Paolas mum even teached me how to knit, without talking. Would highly recommend :))

We had an amazing time with Frank and Monica! They were so nice and we would deffenitly go there again! They took care of us like we were family! Amzing!

Erja and Fanny are a mother-and-daughter team. They were here for two weeks and they fitted in very easily from the beginning They work very well together, but both are also happy to work alone. Their standard is extraordinary, they see the work, do it and stop when it’s perfect – a real treat to have two so competent women! Erja: She has an extraordinary talent for organising things – and it was high time to do that in the barn or in the utility room. She did garden work and cleaning, her working spaces are left spotless. There was also help for cleaning the rooms when we had guests – you can see at once that this is somebody that has done a lot of different things in her life and takes every step seriously. Fanny: What a sunny, friendly and very nice young woman! She is a professional with a solid education in bakery, but she is also very talented doing pottery and painting. Hands on and artistic is a rare talent and she does it all. She helped in the house, did gardening and got really good at sanding! Dedicated and on it for hours… Our discussions around the table in the evenings, together with two other workawayers, were such fun - both of them are good listeners and also their input was very welcome. I would very much like to see both of you again!

Volunteering at Ninia's place was such a great experience! Ninia is a lovely, friendly and very chill host. She told us a lot of interesting things about Georgia and was with us in the house in the beginning so that we can do some harder tasks together. Then she had to go back to Tbilisi but we kept great communication. The house has a lot of work that needs to be done and Ninia gave us freedom to choose what to do based on what we're good at. She's also very open to suggestions about the house. In general, had a great workaway experience, had a lot of freedom and the work was just as described in Ninia's post. Absolutely recommend!

I only just took the time to leave a feedback on my stay with Anna, in March, at her beautiful place. I spent an incredible week in Lund, Anna is a very kind and attentive host, always ready to offer advice and chat about all sorts of topics (if you want plenty of ideas about vegetarian recipes, you are at the right place !), in addition to her many recommendations about life in Lund and the surrounding area. The work is more than fair—I didn’t even feel like I was working because Anna’s requests are so pleasant. I helped with housekeeping and a bit of work in the outdoor garden (a beautiful spot, by the way). Moreover, I can’t leave feedback without mentioning the two adorable cats who will be part of your stay, always looking for cuddles and companionship! Finally, life in Lund is more than pleasant; the city is very cute, with plenty of activities to choose from, whether cultural (the public library is incredible!) or sports-related, and I highly recommend visiting during the school year to enjoy the student atmosphere. Anna is someone you’ll want to meet; I highly recommend staying with her, and I hope to return someday! Thank you again, Anna, for this wonderful stay !

Skye and Ciara were an absolute joy to host. They both approached each day and each and every task with such enthusiasm. Both had considerable skills and saw that along with learning from us, that they could also pass on some of their knowledge. During their time here, they helped put walls onto a new potting shed, weeded, potted up seedlings, watered, helped with clearing up areas that had been used for storage. Before they left this morning Skye and Ciara even stripped their bed and washed all the sheets and towels, hanging them out to dry before heading off to continue their travels. We would be happy to have both of these young ladies come and stay with us at any time in the future. We wish them all the best with their continuing adventures and travels.

Staying with David and Sarah (and sweet Louis) was an absolute treat. They are kind, patient, caring and fun people. I learnt tons about biological gardening and farming, the cheese making process (although due to circumstances there was less cheese making and more cheese eating) and the history of Australia. I felt welcome and cared for, being part of their family while also having my own space and time. I can't express my gratitude enough for having stayed in Lyonville with them. It's a life long memory and bond. They are the exemplary reason why anyone should do a workaway.

I had a great experience with this family. They are kind, welcoming, and excellent people. I really enjoyed helping them in the garden and around the property, and I always felt comfortable and appreciated. The work was fair, communication was excellent, and I would happily recommend them to other Workawayers. Thank you for everything!

We were very happy to have Natalia and Thomas at our place. Thanks a lot guys for helping us out and for your happy company.

Vielen Dank an Jacqueline, Christa und Bruno. Es war sooo schön euch kennen lernen zu dürfen. Ihr wart eine absolute Bereicherung, sehr große Hilfe für Birgit & mich und mein Zuhause 😀 wir vermissen euch. Ihr seid jederzeit herzlich willkommen in Wennbüttel. Liebe Grüße Heike

It was a pleasure to host Elsien at our farm. She was very helpful, enthusiatic, respectful and a fast learner, picking up new tasks with ease. She willingly shared her knoweledge of culture and language with us which we very much enjoyed. And cooked for us on numerous occasions which we loved. We would highly recommend Elsien to other hosts. We have certainly made a new friend and plan to keep in touch.

Volunteering at the dog shelter was a pleasure. The members here always made sure I had everyting I need, and the dogs were always very happy to see me. The shelter is in the center of the town, 2 minutes from cafes and bakeries, with view on the beach. The daily tasks are feeding the dogs, walking the dogs, playing and socialising the dogs. And on some occasions, taking dogs to the veterinarian or geting dog food from the shop. The longer you meet the dogs, the better relation you have with them and they become your close friends. Hora is a typical coastal greek town you see on postcards, white houses, churches and sea. If you like running with dogs on the beach, eating spanakopita and drinking freddo espresso, you will love this place !

Lorraine and Arnie were our first Workaway hosts and we spent two wonderful weeks with them! We did a variety of different tasks around the house and always felt truly appreciated, even for the smallest things. They were very considerate of our vegetarian diet and made sure we had plenty of options. Ben, their son taught us a lot about golf and we loved playing Skip-Bo together almost every evening! Overall we would always recommend Lorraine and Arnie! They made us feel welcome from day one and were truly inspiring people and we couldn‘t have imagined better hosts for our first Workaway experience!

Fernando estuvo durante un mes y realizó una valiosa contribución. Su principal área de experiencia es su conocimiento en herramientas digitales y IA. Brindó una gran ayuda con nuestro sitio web, permitiéndonos avanzar en tareas importantes que teníamos pendientes. Además, tiene habilidades para los trabajos en madera y siempre estuvo dispuesto a colaborar en distintas actividades de la propiedad. Mostró un genuino interés por aprender sobre permacultura y sobre enfoques regenerativos para el manejo de la tierra. Valoramos especialmente su independencia, responsabilidad y puntualidad. Es una persona que se organiza bien y se adapta fácilmente a nuevos entornos. También apreciamos su interés por integrarse a la comunidad local, apoyando a productores y vecinos de la zona mediante la compra de sus productos. Fernando es una persona respetuosa, amable y de buen trato. Agradecemos lo que aportó durante su estadía y la experiencia compartida . Le deseamos todo lo mejor en su aventura por la vida en bicicleta y esperamos poder recibirlo nuevamente en el futuro

Dori and Laura were the best Workawayers you could ask for. From day one, they were hardworking, reliable, and able to work completely independently. Whatever task was given to them, they took ownership of it and got it done without needing supervision. They helped with gardening, woodwork, general maintenance, and even looked after our 5-month-old baby with great care and responsibility. It was a huge help and gave us complete peace of mind. Beyond their work ethic, they were simply great people to have around: friendly, positive, easy-going, and a lot of fun to spend time with. They brought great energy to our home and quickly felt like part of the family. I would welcome them back anytime and can recommend them without hesitation to any host. If you have the chance to host Dori and Laura, take it, you won't be disappointed.

To other hosts : Go for Ale without any hesitations, you won't regret it !
