- Space available from now until 24th October and 17th November onwards. **Please note that we ask that all enquiries include a proposed arrival and departure date, we will also ask to arrange a quick video call to confirm volunteers have sufficient English to communicate with other staff and customers** We are a busy, free-hold pub with brewery and gin distillery in a small village beside the sea in North Devon. We serve real ales, home-made food, and run regular music nights, games night and discussion groups. We are busy with holiday-makers and residents alike, and the pub is an important part of the community here. Depending on the length of stay and time of year, volunteers might find themselves helping with general maintenance, cleaning and organising or assisting in the kitchen- helping service run smoothly during lunchtime and evening sessions. Kitchen work is mainly washing dishes and helping keep things tidy during service, carrying food to tables, etc. The nature and dur...

Gardening, housework, light mechanical, a bit of hunting, all sorts of things, never boring.A wicked sense of humor is a good asset to bring. handy to Routeburn and Greenstone tracks. You will need your own internet connection as I don't supply wifi. A bit isolated, not for the precious, no trophy hunters!! Please don't apply unless you intend to come for a minimum stay of two weeks. One person only. We do not get involved with internships or visa applications. Vegetarians and vegans would probably not be comfortable as we eat meat daily. I am off grid and totally dependent on solar, so you have to charge your devices during the day and definitely no hairdryers! Accommodation is a house bus in warmer weather or a room in the house in winter, not shared usually. Lastly I also play the guitar (badly) and sing (worse) but it's all about smile not style :-) , please don't come if you have a heavy cold or flu, I'm involved with the elderly. Cheers Al

I recently purchased a lovely house and am starting interior refreshment and light renovation work in October 2026. I live here with my friendly cat and would love to welcome a proactive, handy traveler to share this exciting project, exchange stories, and discover the region together. I speak fluent English and have a diverse professional background, so there will be plenty of interesting topics to share over meals! I Love nature, biking, swimming, walking and I can be a guide to the local area too. The help needed: I am looking for a practical, DIY-minded helper (solo traveler: one or two) comfortable with tasks such as: * Interior painting and surface preparation * General handy work and small repairs * Light DIY projects and decorating * Brainstorming creative ideas for the living spaces. The schedule is typical helpx style: around 4 to 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, with plenty of free time to relax or explore. Accommodation & Cultural Exchange: * Comfortable private bedroom ...

The permaculture project and the Farm develop in the social, historical and urban fabric of the town of Modica (RG), mainly between the Fontana, Dente and Pennino districts. We actively collaborate with other projects in the province, from which we learn a lot. We live a sober, frugal, healthy life. We follow, in a somewhat radical way, the ethics of Permaculture and many of its principles. After a period of training in horticulture and spiritual reconnection in the Loire in a Sōtō Zen temple, a PDC at Il Filo di Paglia (Comiso) and two years of agricultural experiences of the most varied in south-eastern Sicily, we feel ready to open ourselves to volunteers , willing and passionate who want to live, share and exchange within in this vibrant and beautiful setting. The Mediterranean Sea is just 20 minutes by train (Sampieri train station). We've got a 17th century house for the project (Oct. 2022), quite abandoned for more than one year: Plenty of work has been already done, some mino...

Bonjour, et bienvenue ! [English follows] Du potager,de la construction,des projets dans la forêt... 🤗 Nous sommes heureux de pouvoir vous accueillir chez nous pour une 6e année consécutive ! Voici une petite idée de qui nous sommes, et de notre environnement ! *Nous ! Nous sommes un couple dans la fin trentaine et nous avons une petite fille, née en mars 2022. Nous partageons aussi notre quotidien avec Gaïa, notre adorable chienne. Nous avons découvert le HelpX lors d’un voyage d’un an en Nouvelle-Zélande et riche de ces nombreuses expériences, nous en avons refait à notre retour au Québec. Nous avions hâte d’être chez nous afin de poursuivre l’aventure en tant que hôtes, le HelpX nous ayant amené là où nous sommes aujourd’hui. Notre but à travers cette démarche est d’échanger sur nos expériences mutuelles, de partager des moments enrichissants et de vivre de belles rencontres.

This is what we are about in a nutshell: Inner peace for a compassionate world. You will be helping us to prepare this place for residential retreat and short break visitors to open fully in 2026. We will be hosting well-being, personal-development, meditation and similar groups as well as some guests who are holidaying in the area. The group retreats operates as a community interest company. During the Summer / Autumn 2026 we are doing a lot of internal building work [building new timber stud walls, putting plaster boards up], decorating [painting walls] and grounds maintenance. So plenty of opportunity to increase your practical skills and gain experience in renovating. We will also be hosting guests and retreats. and part of your work may be preparing rooms for their arrival. We value authenticity, integrity, honesty and self-awareness. We have put together this outline as a result of our hosting experience so far. We find that it helps to clarify what is on offer here and wha...

Hello, my name is Florent, I'm 45 years old, I was a chef for about twenty years, and since 2017 I've been a spirulina producer. Spirulina is a microalga that's very rich in nutrients. It's a very environmentally friendly crop, requiring little energy and no pesticides. Spirulina needs sun and warmth to grow. The harvest season in our region runs from April to October, and it's during this period that I'm interested in hosting someone (I don't need two people at the same time, one is enough). Normally, I already have people helping me until the end of august, so I'm looking for someone from beginning of september. I mainly need someone to help me harvest the spirulina but also to help me out on the farm with various tasks, as we do everything ourselves: cleaning, labeling, packaging, general maintenance and odd jobs, and also everything else that goes along with the spirulina production: clearing brush, chopping wood, going to markets from time to time, house construction, etc.....

My name is Paul. About 17 years ago I had this slightly crazy dream of changing my life from being an office worker to becoming an alpaca farmer in the Swedish countryside. Somehow, 17 years later, here we are :) Norrängens is our 100-acre farm just outside Sala, about an hour from Stockholm. We have around 70 alpacas, plus llamas, peacocks, hens, rabbits, a turkey, my cat Sexy, the kids’ cat Vernon and Malta, our farm dog. I have three children, Liam (22), Dylan (13) and Oscar (10). Liam has grown up and moved away from home. Dylan and Oscar live between me and their mum, although sometimes they seem to spend more time here :) When they’re here they’re part of farm life and help out when they can. This is our home and our little family as well as being a farm. Things are quite different here from a few years ago. We used to run a much bigger and busier tourism operation. These days things are smaller and quieter. The economy has been a bit of a struggle, if I’m honest, and this y...

Welcome to our family farm Welcome to our family-run permaculture farm in the countryside of Bilecik, Türkiye. My name is Selçuk. In 2008, I left my white-collar career behind to build a life closer to the land, animals, food and nature. Today, I live here with my wife Julia, and we enjoy sharing our everyday life with guests from different cultures and backgrounds. I studied Culinary Arts, Agricultural Technologies, and Medicinal & Aromatic Plants. I also hold a Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) and have training in Holistic Management. My main interests are animal systems, fermentation, food processing and practical permaculture. Real rural life Life here is simple and genuinely rural. We don't offer hotel-style comfort. Instead, expect animals, soil, mud, changing weather, quiet nights and days shaped by the rhythms of nature. Guests stay in a simple room on the farm. We provide three meals a day and usually eat together. Food is an important part of life here. Our table ...

October and November + are available From October onwards we are open to either short or longer stay requests. We could have a trial week or fortnight before committing to a long stay. Also we would like to arrange help for next year MARCH and April, this would involve strimming (rechargeable, metal blade Stihl, with mask etc) and for an experienced strimmer we could add some paid hours on top of the full board and bedroom. PLEASE no supporters of mass starvation and military actions against civilians... No climate change deniers ... We definitely would not get on!!! (to be clear it is not that we require long or even ANY conversations on these topics, it is that it would be against our principles to be gaining any kind of advantage by hosting people who were misaligned with our ethics). October November project is to help set up a solar powered irrigation system...so connecting the pipes to the different trees We like 24 hours(can be less if the work is grottier or heavier,...

Bonjour à tous ! Nous sommes éleveur de chevaux arabes, arabe-barbes et anglo-arabes et nous avons une trentaine de chevaux en moyenne, dont des retraités, des poulains, des adultes qui sont montés ainsi que des pensionnaires. Nos autres animaux sont 2 chiens, un malinois guide de chevaux, et une micro beagle réformée des laboratoires, et des poules qui vivent en liberté. Il est donc primordial d'aimer aussi les chiens, car les deux là sont très invasifs pour avoir des câlins... Notre discipline sportive est l'endurance, et il nous arrive encore parfois de faire des compétitions plus ou moins longues, de 20 à 120 km. Évidemment le cheval est notre passion, et nous aimons partager avec tous ceux qui ont la même passion que nous. Et sinon, je parle anglais mais vraiment pas super bien, et Marcel pas du tout. Alors pour vivre de bons moments conviviaux et un beau séjour, il faut parler correctement le français pour saisir la subtilité des conversations et des blagues. Et aussi Marce...

In 2005, my husband Terje and I, became the proud owners of this place and we spent the next 15 years renovating the property. Today we offer short-term accommodation in this historical building. Guests come to visit from all over the world. They come to Odda and the Hardanger area to experience and explore our unique landscape with glaziers, fjords, mountains, waterfalls, valleys and lakes. Hiking to Trolltunga is undoubtedly the most popular of the tourist attractions offered here in Odda. Other less famous attractions are just as breath-taking. We are a family of seven, with four daughters and a foster son, but our three eldest daughters have recently moved out to work and study. We would be most grateful if you would like to come and live with us, and help us with the housekeeping; cleaning, change of bedlinen, reception work, payments, as well as maintenance, carpentry, painting, gardening, childcare, pet care, and other activities like going fishing and having fun.

Namaste! Thank you for stopping by. :-) I hope you will join me on my journey for a month, 2 months, or long-term. I have a pair of picturesque, riverfront hobby farms, each with a large 4-bedroom house. In time, want to transition the farms to more of a communal space. There are three acres of wild blueberries that I am currently converingt to organic production, six acres of pasture, and about eight acres of woods that provide more than enough firewood to heat both homes without having to clear-cut any areas. I have a small herd of alpacas and an even smaller flock of chickens, whom I allow to free range. We harvest a small portion of our food from the property, and my vision is to increase that slowly and steadily every year. For a long-term (and possibly lifetime) stay, I would particularly interested in these 3 individuals: 1. Someone to manage the livestock, including monthly shots for the alpacas 2. Someone to process and market the alpaca fibre 3. Someone to manage the lit...

Student Accommodation and Digital Music Studio in Oxford. Hi there, I have 2 houses where I provide accommodation for international students - I have 1 or 2 students here for both short and long term lets and often couch-surfers for 1 or 2 nights. Oxford is a great international and multi-cultural study centre and its easy to feel at home in this city. The students and professionals who live with me are normally University students at all levels. They are usually independent and busy with their studies/research - so this is not like a hostel - but they are happy to have a coffee and chat when they are around. I am a British well-educated guy and for those wishing to improve their English-speaking skills this is a really good opportunity. I am happy to spend time in the evenings with your English improvement. There are FREE English classes in Oxford city centre where you can also meet up with international travellers. And I also have a very good knowledge of sightseeing both in Oxf...

Hello! We are David and Celia. We were running one "donativo" albergue in Saint James way for 9 years in the north of Spain. We moved now to another "camino" in Galicia . We want to create a new donativo albergue, and we are doing it with our hands. We would appreciate any help with this new project and helpers with "construction" knowledge. We have a plant garden and 7 chickens. In our previous albergue, we used to host voluntaries many times. We are used to it and we love the concept of volunteering. We would love to host people and do some works together, and enjoy sharing experiences, different foods, making some trips... And show this beautiful region in the south of Galicia to the people who come with us. We offer a private bedroom. Breakfast and meals. And nice company from us and from our cat 💟

Hi everyone, I'm Dominique, I'm happy to welcome you to my village house in Normandy. We are less than 100m away from the sea (but with no sea view) and the local fishing village. In the area of the D Day landings of June 6th 1944. Close to "La Point du Hoc" and Omaha Beach. We have a vegetable garden. Help is needed all year long with all manner of things to be done. We have a garden where we want to grow as many vegetables as we can. I can teach you how to make jam, how to preserve fruit and vegetables. You will share our meals and have your room in the house. I speak French and English. Internet access. Helpers are welcome to maintain the garden and enjoy the local area.

Dear Helper, please use the HelpX message section for your first contact message only, so I can see your HelpX profile and references. But also leave me your regular Email address in this first message for further communication. The HelpX Email server is extremely limited (plain text only and no html, attachments etc.) and messages are deleted fast and randomly. Also, to see more comments and pictures than the 6 allowed here, click on my Facebook link below. Some of my helpers also post their pictures and comments there about staying at my place. I live in an old farmhouse, converted to 3 separate apartments in Madiswil, a small town between Berne and Basel. I live in the second floor apartment (4 bedrooms). The ground floor main apartment is rented out to a single lady with her 2 Cats and 2 Dogs. The 1.5 room ground floor apartment is rented out to a couple. Helpers have their own room (3rd picture of my profile). We have a high speed internet connection. There is also a small swimmi...

This is a historic country homestead set in rural Central Hawke’s Bay, on Porangahau Road, surrounded by gardens, mature trees, open farmland, birdsong and big skies. Built in 1853 by the Ormond family, Wallingford is one of Hawke’s Bay’s oldest homesteads and has a wonderfully peaceful, tucked-away feeling — the sort of place where guests arrive down the driveway, exhale, and settle into country life. The homestead is run by Chris and Jeanette Stockdale, former Sydney restaurateurs who swapped city restaurant life for the joy of creating warm, generous hospitality in the country. Chris is an experienced chef with a deep love of seasonal, garden-led and locally sourced food, while Jeanette brings warmth, humour and genuine care to the front of house. Together, they create an experience that is relaxed, welcoming and full of heart. Our homestead has been described by one guest as “possibly the most welcoming place in the world,” which beautifully captures the spirit of the homestead. ...

- Space available from now until 24th October and 17th November onwards. **Please note that we ask that all enquiries include a proposed arrival and departure date, we will also ask to arrange a quick video call to confirm volunteers have sufficient English to communicate with other staff and customers** We are a busy, free-hold pub with brewery and gin distillery in a small village beside the sea in North Devon.

Gardening, housework, light mechanical, a bit of hunting, all sorts of things, never boring.A wicked sense of humor is a good asset to bring. handy to Routeburn and Greenstone tracks. You will need your own internet connection as I don't supply wifi. A bit isolated, not for the precious, no trophy hunters!! Please don't apply unless you intend to come for a minimum stay of two weeks. One person only. We do not get involved with internships or visa applications. Vegetarians and vegans would probably not be comfortable as we eat meat daily. I am off grid and totally dependent on solar, so you have to charge your devices during the day and definitely no hairdryers! Accommodation is a house bus in warmer weather or a room in the house in winter, not shared usually. Lastly I also play the guitar (badly) and sing (worse) but it's all about smile not style :-) , please don't come if you have a heavy cold or flu, I'm involved with the elderly. Cheers Al

The permaculture project and the Farm develop in the social, historical and urban fabric of the town of Modica (RG), mainly between the Fontana, Dente and Pennino districts. We actively collaborate with other projects in the province, from which we learn a lot. We live a sober, frugal, healthy life. We follow, in a somewhat radical way, the ethics of Permaculture and many of its principles. After a period of training in horticulture and spiritual reconnection in the Loire in a Sōtō Zen temple, a PDC at Il Filo di Paglia (Comiso) and two years of agricultural experiences of the most varied in south-eastern Sicily, we feel ready to open ourselves to volunteers , willing and passionate who want to live, share and exchange within in this vibrant and beautiful setting. The Mediterranean Sea is just 20 minutes by train (Sampieri train station). We've got a 17th century house for the project (Oct. 2022), quite abandoned for more than one year: Plenty of work has been already done, some mino...

This is what we are about in a nutshell: Inner peace for a compassionate world. You will be helping us to prepare this place for residential retreat and short break visitors to open fully in 2026. We will be hosting well-being, personal-development, meditation and similar groups as well as some guests who are holidaying in the area. The group retreats operates as a community interest company. During the Summer / Autumn 2026 we are doing a lot of internal building work [building new timber stud walls, putting plaster boards up], decorating [painting walls] and grounds maintenance. So plenty of opportunity to increase your practical skills and gain experience in renovating. We will also be hosting guests and retreats. and part of your work may be preparing rooms for their arrival. We value authenticity, integrity, honesty and self-awareness. We have put together this outline as a result of our hosting experience so far. We find that it helps to clarify what is on offer here and wha...

We live in a fun share house 🏡 in Maryborough, Marry Poppins Town, with awesome meals 🍝, fireplace 🔥 and a big edible garden 🌾🌴🌳🌿. We're Mars, the owner of the property and former owner of multiple language schools and Tracy, a former theatre/restaurant owner who's cooking the most amazing meals and looking after everyone like a mum. There're 2 adorable dogs 🐕‍🦺🐕 in the family, so you must be a dog 🦮 lover. Also 6 chicken 🐓 and 2 ducks 🦆, so we always have fresh eggs 🪺. We need help with building and creating, and with an awesome edible garden. We're about to put 12v solar power into the rooms, also natural air-conditioning and are finishing up the spa bath in the 2nd bathroom... so there's a bit for you to learn and lots of knowledge to take home. We like to work with fun 🥳, laughter 😂, music 🎶 and love to see you letting a bit of your craziness out 🤪. Be yourself and join the family... We have had many awesome experiences with travellers so far 😃. Please no...

Hello, my name is Florent, I'm 45 years old, I was a chef for about twenty years, and since 2017 I've been a spirulina producer. Spirulina is a microalga that's very rich in nutrients. It's a very environmentally friendly crop, requiring little energy and no pesticides. Spirulina needs sun and warmth to grow. The harvest season in our region runs from April to October, and it's during this period that I'm interested in hosting someone (I don't need two people at the same time, one is enough). Normally, I already have people helping me until the end of august, so I'm looking for someone from beginning of september. I mainly need someone to help me harvest the spirulina but also to help me out on the farm with various tasks, as we do everything ourselves: cleaning, labeling, packaging, general maintenance and odd jobs, and also everything else that goes along with the spirulina production: clearing brush, chopping wood, going to markets from time to time, house construction, etc.....

My name is Paul. About 17 years ago I had this slightly crazy dream of changing my life from being an office worker to becoming an alpaca farmer in the Swedish countryside. Somehow, 17 years later, here we are :) Norrängens is our 100-acre farm just outside Sala, about an hour from Stockholm. We have around 70 alpacas, plus llamas, peacocks, hens, rabbits, a turkey, my cat Sexy, the kids’ cat Vernon and Malta, our farm dog. I have three children, Liam (22), Dylan (13) and Oscar (10). Liam has grown up and moved away from home. Dylan and Oscar live between me and their mum, although sometimes they seem to spend more time here :) When they’re here they’re part of farm life and help out when they can. This is our home and our little family as well as being a farm. Things are quite different here from a few years ago. We used to run a much bigger and busier tourism operation. These days things are smaller and quieter. The economy has been a bit of a struggle, if I’m honest, and this y...

Welcome to our family farm Welcome to our family-run permaculture farm in the countryside of Bilecik, Türkiye. My name is Selçuk. In 2008, I left my white-collar career behind to build a life closer to the land, animals, food and nature. Today, I live here with my wife Julia, and we enjoy sharing our everyday life with guests from different cultures and backgrounds. I studied Culinary Arts, Agricultural Technologies, and Medicinal & Aromatic Plants. I also hold a Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) and have training in Holistic Management. My main interests are animal systems, fermentation, food processing and practical permaculture. Real rural life Life here is simple and genuinely rural. We don't offer hotel-style comfort. Instead, expect animals, soil, mud, changing weather, quiet nights and days shaped by the rhythms of nature. Guests stay in a simple room on the farm. We provide three meals a day and usually eat together. Food is an important part of life here. Our table ...

We are a cultural and arts community that is working towards being self-sustained. The community is situated in the mountains of Monchique, Portugal surrounded by nature. Our community provides an alternative way of living with permaculture gardens, farm animals, sustainability projects, and arts and cultural workshops.

We hold community meetings throughout the week alongside activities and workshops, such as quiz nights, dance nights and yoga classes. If you have something you are passionate about and want to share with others, we would love for you to run a workshop.

October and November + are available From October onwards we are open to either short or longer stay requests. We could have a trial week or fortnight before committing to a long stay. Also we would like to arrange help for next year MARCH and April, this would involve strimming (rechargeable, metal blade Stihl, with mask etc) and for an experienced strimmer we could add some paid hours on top of the full board and bedroom. PLEASE no supporters of mass starvation and military actions against civilians... No climate change deniers ... We definitely would not get on!!! (to be clear it is not that we require long or even ANY conversations on these topics, it is that it would be against our principles to be gaining any kind of advantage by hosting people who were misaligned with our ethics). October November project is to help set up a solar powered irrigation system...so connecting the pipes to the different trees We like 24 hours(can be less if the work is grottier or heavier,...

Bonjour à tous ! Nous sommes éleveur de chevaux arabes, arabe-barbes et anglo-arabes et nous avons une trentaine de chevaux en moyenne, dont des retraités, des poulains, des adultes qui sont montés ainsi que des pensionnaires. Nos autres animaux sont 2 chiens, un malinois guide de chevaux, et une micro beagle réformée des laboratoires, et des poules qui vivent en liberté. Il est donc primordial d'aimer aussi les chiens, car les deux là sont très invasifs pour avoir des câlins... Notre discipline sportive est l'endurance, et il nous arrive encore parfois de faire des compétitions plus ou moins longues, de 20 à 120 km. Évidemment le cheval est notre passion, et nous aimons partager avec tous ceux qui ont la même passion que nous. Et sinon, je parle anglais mais vraiment pas super bien, et Marcel pas du tout. Alors pour vivre de bons moments conviviaux et un beau séjour, il faut parler correctement le français pour saisir la subtilité des conversations et des blagues. Et aussi Marce...

In 2005, my husband Terje and I, became the proud owners of this place and we spent the next 15 years renovating the property. Today we offer short-term accommodation in this historical building. Guests come to visit from all over the world. They come to Odda and the Hardanger area to experience and explore our unique landscape with glaziers, fjords, mountains, waterfalls, valleys and lakes. Hiking to Trolltunga is undoubtedly the most popular of the tourist attractions offered here in Odda. Other less famous attractions are just as breath-taking. We are a family of seven, with four daughters and a foster son, but our three eldest daughters have recently moved out to work and study. We would be most grateful if you would like to come and live with us, and help us with the housekeeping; cleaning, change of bedlinen, reception work, payments, as well as maintenance, carpentry, painting, gardening, childcare, pet care, and other activities like going fishing and having fun.

Namaste! Thank you for stopping by. :-) I hope you will join me on my journey for a month, 2 months, or long-term. I have a pair of picturesque, riverfront hobby farms, each with a large 4-bedroom house. In time, want to transition the farms to more of a communal space. There are three acres of wild blueberries that I am currently converingt to organic production, six acres of pasture, and about eight acres of woods that provide more than enough firewood to heat both homes without having to clear-cut any areas. I have a small herd of alpacas and an even smaller flock of chickens, whom I allow to free range. We harvest a small portion of our food from the property, and my vision is to increase that slowly and steadily every year. For a long-term (and possibly lifetime) stay, I would particularly interested in these 3 individuals: 1. Someone to manage the livestock, including monthly shots for the alpacas 2. Someone to process and market the alpaca fibre 3. Someone to manage the lit...

Student Accommodation and Digital Music Studio in Oxford. Hi there, I have 2 houses where I provide accommodation for international students - I have 1 or 2 students here for both short and long term lets and often couch-surfers for 1 or 2 nights. Oxford is a great international and multi-cultural study centre and its easy to feel at home in this city. The students and professionals who live with me are normally University students at all levels. They are usually independent and busy with their studies/research - so this is not like a hostel - but they are happy to have a coffee and chat when they are around. I am a British well-educated guy and for those wishing to improve their English-speaking skills this is a really good opportunity. I am happy to spend time in the evenings with your English improvement. There are FREE English classes in Oxford city centre where you can also meet up with international travellers. And I also have a very good knowledge of sightseeing both in Oxf...

Good morning;. I have had a couple of people ask about whatsapp??? Sorry I do not know what that is. I must be a little too old to know.!!! I do not expect a winter water shortage now.

I will need help October onwards and over the winter please. If you can come anytime ,it sure would be appreciated. The helper who had been here just over 3 years [yes years],moved . He works in town full time, stayed here for free and helped with chores. I have had 5 really great helpers this year and 1 vanishing act. Too funny. Not as much to do as most years.

Hello! We are David and Celia. We were running one "donativo" albergue in Saint James way for 9 years in the north of Spain. We moved now to another "camino" in Galicia . We want to create a new donativo albergue, and we are doing it with our hands. We would appreciate any help with this new project and helpers with "construction" knowledge. We have a plant garden and 7 chickens. In our previous albergue, we used to host voluntaries many times. We are used to it and we love the concept of volunteering. We would love to host people and do some works together, and enjoy sharing experiences, different foods, making some trips... And show this beautiful region in the south of Galicia to the people who come with us. We offer a private bedroom. Breakfast and meals. And nice company from us and from our cat 💟

Hello everyone!!! Namaste! This is an organic farm & retreat center located in the Himalayan foothills.

Hi everyone, I'm Dominique, I'm happy to welcome you to my village house in Normandy. We are less than 100m away from the sea (but with no sea view) and the local fishing village. In the area of the D Day landings of June 6th 1944. Close to "La Point du Hoc" and Omaha Beach. We have a vegetable garden. Help is needed all year long with all manner of things to be done. We have a garden where we want to grow as many vegetables as we can. I can teach you how to make jam, how to preserve fruit and vegetables. You will share our meals and have your room in the house. I speak French and English. Internet access. Helpers are welcome to maintain the garden and enjoy the local area.

Dear Helper, please use the HelpX message section for your first contact message only, so I can see your HelpX profile and references. But also leave me your regular Email address in this first message for further communication. The HelpX Email server is extremely limited (plain text only and no html, attachments etc.) and messages are deleted fast and randomly. Also, to see more comments and pictures than the 6 allowed here, click on my Facebook link below. Some of my helpers also post their pictures and comments there about staying at my place. I live in an old farmhouse, converted to 3 separate apartments in Madiswil, a small town between Berne and Basel. I live in the second floor apartment (4 bedrooms). The ground floor main apartment is rented out to a single lady with her 2 Cats and 2 Dogs. The 1.5 room ground floor apartment is rented out to a couple. Helpers have their own room (3rd picture of my profile). We have a high speed internet connection. There is also a small swimmi...

This is a historic country homestead set in rural Central Hawke’s Bay, on Porangahau Road, surrounded by gardens, mature trees, open farmland, birdsong and big skies. Built in 1853 by the Ormond family, Wallingford is one of Hawke’s Bay’s oldest homesteads and has a wonderfully peaceful, tucked-away feeling — the sort of place where guests arrive down the driveway, exhale, and settle into country life. The homestead is run by Chris and Jeanette Stockdale, former Sydney restaurateurs who swapped city restaurant life for the joy of creating warm, generous hospitality in the country. Chris is an experienced chef with a deep love of seasonal, garden-led and locally sourced food, while Jeanette brings warmth, humour and genuine care to the front of house. Together, they create an experience that is relaxed, welcoming and full of heart. Our homestead has been described by one guest as “possibly the most welcoming place in the world,” which beautifully captures the spirit of the homestead. ...
