On the one hand, my sister recommended it to me, and on the other hand, I thought it would be a good opportunity to learn a lot about Australia and life here. In addition, I am someone who likes to have a task, a meaningful activity, which is why I think the concept of working and traveling suits me well.

  Je recherche de nouvelles expériences et de nouvelles personnes à rencontrer. J'adore passer du temps dans mon jardin et j'aimerais apprendre davantage en travaillant la terre différemment et sans produits. Mais aussi découvrir de nouvelles façons de faire et partager et échanger des idées pour découvrir de nouvelles cultures et de nouveaux modes de vie. Apprendre auprès de mes hôtes sera un honneur.

Our 100ac farm is situated on Deep Creek in the Macedon Ranges, about 1 hour outside Melbourne. We run livestock and grow vegetables for our own use. Animals include cows, alpacas, sheep, chickens, dogs and a pig. There are two of us living on this property, entirely off the grid.

I did WWOOFing for the first time in Australia. Even though I had already done a lot of volunteer work back in France, I always feel better when I can help someone in need. With WWOOFing, I get to do that while also experiencing the country in a more intimate way, by meeting and connecting with the people who live there !

It gives me a lot of peace and satisfaction to deal with animals. I enjoy caring for them, observing their behavior and making sure they feel comfortable and safe.I used to ride horses for almost 2 years. It was great interacting with the horses and working with them. Dealing with animals helps me relax and gives me a sense of responsibility and satisfaction. I also think it is important to learn where our food comes from and how it is produced. Learning about growing vegetables and other products really appeals to me, because I enjoy eating tasty and healthy food. By understanding how food is grown in a sustainable and responsible way, I can be more conscious about what I eat while increasing my knowledge about nature. For me, caring for animals and enjoying good food is a way to relax and enjoy everyday life.

10 acres, huge garden, lots of vegetation, natural and natives, big rose garden and vines. A great veggie garden, with fruit trees. Care and keep horses Beautiful large home with a pool. Horses and bird life

I joined WWOOF because I want to experience authentic farm life, learn from local hosts, and contribute in a meaningful way. It’s a great opportunity to connect with nature, meet inspiring people, and grow personally while helping out.

I am in a unique gap of time before I start my new job in April. I want to make the most of this opportunity by doing something I've never done—and likely won't get the chance to do again until I retire. Since my new job is related to organic plants, I don't just want to sell them; I want to understand where they come from and experience the farm life for myself.

What better way to learn about a new place than to get to know its land and its people? I am joining WWOOF AU to make connections, pursue my interests in food/environment, and hopefully learn a couple new skills. I hope to one day have property of my own to raise food, so I’m trying to learn some skills to make that happen, such as animal care/meat/dairy, veggie and fruit production, bee keeping, and earthen/sustainable structure, and medicinal plant knowledge. Extra points if you have some cool recipes you can teach me 🙂

Nine Planets lies at the end of the Chapman River Sanctuary adjacent Lashmar's Lagoon Sanctuary and about 600 meters from Antechamber Bay, one of the largest, most pristine and undisturbed beaches on Kangaroo Island's coast. The Chapman River teams with bream and the beach is a sanctuary for endangered hooded plovers which nest in the sand just above the high water line in late spring. Garfish, tommies, flathead and mullet can be caught from the beach if you are adept at shore fishing. Lashmar's Lagoon is a sanctuary for waterbirds and teems with black swans, ducks, pelicans, sacred ibis and other birds. In winter and spring black swans grazing in pasture adjacent the lagoon outnumber farmers' sheep. Kangaroos, wallabies and goannas usually visit daily and dozens of bird species including magpies, currawongs, superb fairywrens, honeyeaters, thornbills, red browed finches and silver eyes call in for a drink and/or bath, whilst wedge tailed eagles and the very rare white bellied sea eagle may be seen soaring overhead. At night the calls of boobook owls can be heard in the distance. It is often windy, but rarely very hot or very cold.

I joined WWOOFing to discover Australia in a different way, learn new organic farming methods and work on a farm. I love animals and nature, and I want to meet people from different cultures, share my experience and learn from others.

We joined WWOOF because we are eager to travel and meet new people while also fostering our passion for the environment. We care deeply about being stewards to the earth and are looking to learn about organic farming and sustainable practices. We have had friends who have WWOOF-ed before and they have spoken very highly of their experiences which is what inspired us to try it out for ourselves.

I would like to join WWOOF in Australia because I am very interested in learning about Australian agriculture and sustainable farming practices. I believe that by working directly on farms, I can gain hands-on experience and deepen my understanding of the land, crops, and lifestyle in rural Australia. Another reason is that I would like to stay in Australia for a longer period of time and travel around different regions. WWOOF offers a unique opportunity to explore many areas while being part of local communities, rather than just being a tourist. Finally, I am eager to meet people from different backgrounds and cultures. I believe cultural exchange is one of the most valuable experiences in life, and I would love to share my own culture while learning from hosts and fellow WWOOFers. I am excited to contribute, learn, and grow through this program.

To take part in an exchange of my labour for cultural and technical learning. I enjoy gardening and working outdoors. To make my extended holiday less mundane. Maybe to help me be less afraid of coming across snakes and spiders in Australia.
