I feel a strong connection to nature and want to support initiatives that promote sustainable agricultural practices. While I love visiting breathtaking places when traveling, what I value even more is connecting with locals and broadening my horizons by experiencing different ways of living. WWOOF seems to be exactly what I'm looking for, and I'm really looking forward to gaining new experiences and meeting like-minded people.

Through WWOOF I hope to meet people with similar dreams and interests. I hope to be able to learn and listen aswell as share my views & things I know. I am so happy to be able to travel to Australia, it would be wonderfull to explore the australian nature and culture.

I support the idea of sustainable agriculture and permaculture. For me, this is the path to a bright future for us all. I am enthusiastic about the idea and, above all, about bringing different generations together. For a good life together!

I joined WWOOF because I wanted to give real meaning to my summer. I love traveling, discovering new places, and meeting people from different backgrounds, but this time, I wanted to experience something more authentic and human than simple tourism. Woofing seems to me like the perfect way to do that : learning, sharing, helping, all while being close to nature and animals. Having grown up in the countryside, I’ve always enjoyed working outdoors and being around animals. I practiced horse riding for ten years, and from that time I’ve kept a real appreciation for effort, respect for living beings, and the satisfaction of being useful. I like feeling involved in a tangible project, where my help can truly make a difference. For me, WWOOF is much more than just a trip, it’s an opportunity to step out of my comfort zone, to discover a new culture, to learn new things, and and to connect with people. I see it as a deeply enriching experience, one that reflects my values of sharing, kindness, and open-mindedness.

I want to join WWOOF to discover Australia through meaningful volunteering. Environmental issues matter to me, and helping communities after disasters aligns with my work in environment and climate in France.

We joined WWOOF because we want to experience Australia in a real way, not just as tourists. We are open, sociable and approachable, and we love meeting new people, discovering new places and learning new skills. We also have this deep need to reconnect with nature, because it is where we feel most aligned with ourselves. We are joyful, positive, with a good sense of humor, and we like to keep things simple. For us, WWOOFing is about sharing, helping, and living unforgettable expériences.

I want to work in a environment surrounded by animals and I would like to grow my experience with them, that's why I want to join WWOOF. I also want to meet Australian people, to share our cultures and to learn by their side. I would love to improve my animals experience thanks to nice, passionate and involved people as hosts are.

A great way of seeing rural parts of Australia and learn new things and hopefully met interesting characters. I love animals and have spent time on family farms growing up which I enjoyed. I’m an outdoor person and would like to see how others manage and live on the land using different techniques in growing and farming.

I want to join WWOOF because I’m really interested in learning more about sustainable and regenerative ways of living. I enjoy working outdoors, being close to nature, and helping with practical tasks, so the idea of supporting farms and learning directly from experienced hosts feels like the perfect fit for me. I also love the cultural exchange aspect. Staying with local people, experiencing daily life on a farm, and being part of a community—these are things that really excite me. I want to gain new skills, meet inspiring people, and understand different approaches to farming, gardening, and living more simply and responsibly.

Well, I want to transition to another kind of lifestyle. I want to quit the city at some point and be part of a more sustainable and connected environment. Or that's what I believe, but the truth is I haven't tried it yet.. Before quitting everything, I want to learn about permaculture and get my hands dirty. I would love to meet people leaving in an alternative way, learn from them and see how I feel.

I was a tourism student at the University of Otago in New Zealand when I first heard about WWOOFING. It seemed like a fantastic way to get to know locals, do something useful while on holiday and most importantly: to be a part of everyday life in Australia.

We joined WWOOF because we want to travel, meet people, and do something useful. We don’t have experience in farming yet, but we are very motivated to learn. We like to work outside, help others, and learn about sustainable living. We want to start soon, get experience, and see the world from a new point of view.

 

To see how people are taking care of themselves and others in different places in order to hopefully be 'self-reliant' or generally homestead someday on my own.

I chose WWOOFing because I would like to work for 2–3 weeks while experiencing everyday life in Australia. It is a great opportunity for me to improve my English, meet new people, and discover the Australian lifestyle. I enjoy the idea of volunteer work and helping others, and I also have a strong appreciation for nature, so this program feels like the perfect fit for me.

My family and I (4 grown up daughters and their partners) are creating a cafe/restaurant and child care centre on an 11 acre property on outskirts of Perth metro area. The property is 8km from Cockburn train station and 25 minutes drive from Perth city. Whilst My children will be running the businesses, my interest lies in farming the surrounding land based on organic/permaculture principles, with food forests, organic vegetable growing area and small animals to teach children about caring for animals and how to grow food. The organic food and pasture-fed eggs we grow will go to the restaurant to be a part of the menu. My wife is heavily involved in climate change action groups and that’s how she makes her contribution to the future of the planet. Whilst we have the same goals, I am more comfortable helping people learn about putting carbon back into the soil and enjoying the benefits of healthy food at the same time. We hope to have day courses when we are established to teach people about permaculture. There is a lot of local interest in the project. We would love you to become involved and feel the satisfaction of seeing it evolve. We have accommodation available in a small caravan for 2 people, plus a renovated sea container for 2 people All food and lodging is included. You will need to do your own cooking and sometimes share food with other Woofers For more info go to ‘11 acre farm’ on Instagram to see the progress we are making.

I initially joined WWOOF in 2023 where I committed to solo travelling up the East Coast from Sydney to Cairns. I used WWOOF a couple of times to find amazing placements (for organic farming and finding an eco-community).  I've decided now is the best time to explore WA (Margaret River region) as temperatures rise in Exmouth. But I'd really like to get creative more, do some gardening in the beautiful outdoors and meet new people on my journey.

I’d like to be helpful to others through my experiences. I think I can make use of my previous work experience on WWOOF . I also gain new experiences and grow further. I’m not a good English speaker but I try to improve my English skills.
