Since my first contact with Mr. Fifu from Jaisalmer, we had a mutual click. He invited me to their hotels and treated me like a princess. Everyday he took care of all my needs and much more. Mr. Fifu is a wide hearted with endless kindness. I was helping hotel at kitchen prep with hospitality of their guests from all over the world. I had extremely fantastic 10 days with them. Thank you so much 🙏🏽

As a host on workaway, we get to meet new people from lots of interesting places and share some of locations and adventures near us that are special. The workawayers help us with a variety of jobs. We have never had someone that hasn't suited. I highly recommend it if you have a suitable space for them to stay and jobs you need done.

Workaway is a platform enabled budget travellers and host families to look for their right matching! It's a different kind of experience to spend time helping in local families, while saving expenses on accommodation, allowing people to travel longer and farther! Thank you Workaway from the bottom of my 💜🥰 And Have a Happy 2026 🥳

tourist route.

We knew where we wanted to go, SriLanka. We wanted to find something suitable for our age and some kind of work where we could feel useful. The description from the host met our expectations and we communicated with her over a what’s app video call to confirm this. It was a great experience.

Great platform to find a place for working holidays and cultural exchange while gaining work experience abroad. Ideal during a gap year after school or any other time. The hosts reply quickly and kind. Most offers are volunteer opportunities but offer accommodation.
The platform feels safe and provides a 24 hour service for members.

I have only been with Workaway as a host for about a month and have had lots of enquiries, have had two couples come who did a great job around my house and garden and were also very good company. I have more coming later in the month and looking forward to meeting more travellers and achieving more progress in my garden.

Workaway makes it possible to get to know other cultures and different people. Three times there were nice guys here to help us, everyone was helpfully. Also I worked once in Iceland and really enjoyed it. Best idea to be on the go.

I have been using Workaway for years to find native English-speaking girls who help my children learn English and interact in everyday life with people from different countries and cultures.
Often, a great relationship develops and, in some cases, it continues over the years.
I highly recommend it.

Workaway is a great app for facilitating volunteer experience to a young people. It's a new way of volunteering, more accessable, transparent and safe. The main rule is to always have online interview with the candidate, face the person, feel the energy and explain all conditions.

My first Workaway experience was deeply transformative. At 66 years old, I was able to play with fairies again and rediscover a sense of enthusiasm and magical fulfillment.
The context and the host were absolutely wonderful and gave me my first opportunity. Respect and trust grew naturally, and together we achieved dreamlike results. The house became a true home, and the land turned into a very promising garden.
"- Is this my home?" Claude asked me deeply moved.
-"YES", I replied, full of joy.
We were both very pleased. Through shared confidences, a genuine friendship emerged. We were equally committed and generous with one another. Thanks, Claude Blanc.
Thank you, Workaway for existing. Congratulations.
