I am looking to learn more about organic agricultural practices and animal care. I am English and from the UK but have lived in Italy for many of my adult years. I live in Bolzano in the North of Italy, and since 2010 created and ran an intercultural community garden. The garden has been a great success and a group from over 15 different countries continues to grow fruit and vegetables from all over the world. I am visiting Australia for a month in February/March 2025 and would like to spend some days working as a volunteer WWoofer close to Sydney. I would love to work on a farm that has vegetables and animals, especially sheep or goats. I'm not so young anymore (59 years) but would say I'm pretty fit and more than happy to do farm work!

We joined WWOOFing because we believe in the power of connecting with people, nature, and sustainable living. After traveling and working in different environments, we realized how much we enjoy being part of hands-on projects that support ecological practices and promote a simpler, more fulfilling way of life. WWOOFing offers us the opportunity to learn new skills, share our own knowledge, and contribute to meaningful projects, all while immersing ourselves in local cultures and communities. It's the perfect way for us to grow personally, live mindfully, and connect with like-minded people who share our passion for the environment and sustainable living. We’re excited to be part of this community and make lasting memories through shared experiences! 🌿

I joined WWOOF because it seemed like a good opportunity to explore Australian culture while learning something new and creating meaningful connections. I grew up in the Italian countryside, where my grandparents had some animals and a vineyard so farming has been part of my childhood. I like spending time outside and would love to learn more about agriculture and farming.

We want to learn about all the biodiversity and local culture. Also learning new working job will be for sure a great thing in our future adult life !

I want to interact with local people. I also want to experience not only sightseeing, but also local culture and life. Through woof, I would like to learn more about agriculture and improve my English skills.

We believe wwoofing is a great way to meet new people and get to know the Australian lifestyle. It's always a more rewarding experience to share a home with someone, than just travel through.

I love to get my hands dirty and to participate and grow in a community. I love to learn in new places and environments and wwoof offers opportunities to do just that!

I would like to experience something new and learn from landowners in Australia to prepare for doing something similar in Europe. I also hope to contribute to improve and help peoples farms and gardens while here in Australia.

I want travel, discover the word and the other culture. I also want improve my English but the most important for me is create memories ad share a quality moment

I made the decision to join WWOOF so that I'll able to volunteer my time, gain valuable experiences and make some nice friends while exploring Australia. WWOOF Australia seems to be a platform that can help expand my learning experiences, thus allowing me to do what I've wanted to do for the longest time before embarking on the next leg of my learning journey in tertiary education. Previously, there were some constraints. However, with my remote work, feeling freer to do what I'd like to do, and being where I'd like to be, has never seem more real than now, and with WWOOF Australia, the opportunities seem endless. I'm looking forward to some new experiences through this WWOOFing experience.

am looking for a 'soft' landing in Australia. happy to do some casual in exchange for accomodation and spend time away from the city as I get settled in.

I would like to work on a farm since I like animals and nature, starting mid february 2025 for 3 to 4 weeks. I did appreciate my experience of grapepicking in France, it was very convivial. I think it is a good way of knowing a little more about Australians and Australia.

I wanted to move out of Japan and see the world. When I was traveling alone in Japan, I helped out in the farming industry, so I became interested in WWOOF, which can put that experience to good use. I'm looking forward to living a self-sufficient life in the future, so I'd like to see a lot of things. I'm currently studying English, but I can't speak it very well yet, so I wanted to improve my language skills by putting myself in an English-centered environment.

In the future i would love to own a farm and to live off grid or semi off grid so i want to gain experience in working in the farms and using the tools and equiptments and also deal with farm animals and plantations

I joined wwoof because everywhere else i’ve wwoofed i have loved my time there. Meeting different people and working outside are some of my favourite things and travelling solo gives me the freedom to make my schedule and take things slow. Savour. Everyone has something new to teach. To uncover the small wonders of how the Earth works. I love bird IDing and have recently become obsessed with Merlin bird ID.

This led me to prepare and apply for this visa in 2024. I am now 25 years old and have come to Australia on a Working Holiday Visa, subclass 462. I have been here for a little over a month. Earlier, I worked picking strawberries for 11 days, but unfortunately, something unpleasant happened. I first learned about this program a long time ago from a Thai TV show called Doo Hai Roo on the ThaiPBS channel. I believe this will be an exciting and enriching experience for me.

I joined Wwoof because I would love to spend another year in Australia, as I have grown to love the people and the lifestyle it affords me. I see great value in volunteer work and want to dedicate my three months to a cause that is both needed and appreciated. Through the Wwoofing program, I hope to gain hands-on experience in sustainable farming and environmental practices in the Australian landscape while exploring new areas of the country that I otherwise might not have had the opportunity to see. I’m excited to meet new people and learn from their diverse perspectives, as well as share my background in conservation biology to contribute in meaningful ways. By immersing myself in this experience, I aim to help contribute to a process I believe in, while also getting the chance to foster sustainable practices that benefit both people and the environment. Lastly, through bush recovery and natural disaster work, I’m excited to be able to lend a hand rather than just observing from the sidelines.
