I joined WWOOF to deepen my connection to nature, learn hands-on skills in sustainable living, and give back to the land that sustains us all. Over the years, I've developed an attitude of environmental stewardship WWOOF offers an incredible opportunity to work alongside like-minded people. For me, it’s not just about learning farming techniques or contributing to projects—it’s about living in harmony with the natural world, sharing knowledge, and creating meaningful connections with people and the environment. I’m excited to learn from hosts who bring their unique perspectives and expertise to this shared mission. WWOOF feels like a natural extension of my personal values and a wonderful way to embrace a life that’s intentional, grounded, and in tune with nature.

I have an acre of land that I would love to turn into something like a forest garden so I am keen to learn whatever you are willing to teach me. I am also a big fan of alternative economies (shared/gift economy) that are less transactional and more interpersonal in nature, so wwoofing is a natural fit! And like I say (in the about me section) rejoining has brought me full circle back to my post-uni days when I was an avid wwoofer.

I’m particularly interested in working on a farm because I love nature and feel the need to spend more time outdoors. I’m also eager to discover farming techniques and practice my English in an immersive environment.

I have hopes of eventually going into the Peace Corps. With that, I have learned the value of ecotourism while traveling. You always leave a place in a better state than when you got there. I grew up going to horse camp, and have always had a love for animals. I believe skills are to be shared and that help should be a universal concept. I really just wish to gain new knowledge and to discover a place from a new perspective.

I’m super excited to be joining WWOOF during my sabbatical. It’s been a long time since I did any major volunteering – the last big experience was in 2013 when I taught English to kids in India. I worked alongside volunteers from over 20 countries, and it was such a powerful, eye-opening time. Since then, I’ve done some local volunteering, but I’ve really missed that deeper sense of purpose. I’m eager to get back into it, be more intentional with my time, and contribute in a meaningful way. I’ll be traveling around Oceania, with Australia as my first stop. I’m really looking forward to getting to know the people, learning about the culture, and spending time in nature. I’ve always been curious about farming and how it could shape my life, so I’m excited to get my hands dirty, learn from you, and help out however I can!

To gain new Experience in the field and Participate in a new Country untill I manage my Residency and my Work Permit or Studies. Also because I need accomodation and some tasks to do instead of sitting alone in my Hotel and doing nothing more than searching for a sponsored Job.

I want to improve my english. Discover Australia and and its surroundings. I’m willing to learn more about farm life and work. Maybe learn a new language other than english.

I have previously WWOOFed in Italy because I wanted to learn more about sustainable farming methods. I found this experience to be very fulfilling and while I have the time, I would love to give my time to helping small scale farms. I’m very interested in food culture.

I'm interested to learn about horticulture and permacultural practices in Australia. Specifically interested in the usage or native plants to facilitate biodiversity and growth. I also take an interest in the construction and design of buildings via old-fashioned and traditional methods such a clay and stone brick-laying.

I joined wwoof because then I hope to have more chances to find one or more jobs and also a place to stay. Because I was advised to join to have a better chance of finding a farm where I could have three months of work to renew my working holiday visa.

I joined WWOOF because I enjoy getting to know all kinds of people from all different backgrounds, and I am eager to learn about gardening and connecting with the earth. I particularly am very curious and intrigued about Australia, and think WWOOFing is the perfect way to discover more.

Recommended to us by a friend. Sounds like an opportunity to learn and give back. Important to us to live according to our values and keep having amazing adventures.

I joined WWOOF through AIFS and l am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic& Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

I'm willing to explore Australia and experience new things. I love sharing with people and learn from them. I did some woofing in New Zealand and really liked it.

I want to learn from the farm work, and be able to do my hobbies, meet people, and maybe get my second year visa. I am currently travelling Australia and I wish to extend my knowledge and meet interesting people. Also want to be able to surf daily and travel around so the wwoof kind of suits my interests, and if I can help others while doing it, it’s even better.

I'm joining WWOOF as I've always been involved in volunteer activities in Brazil and was looking for opportunities to do volunteer work near Gold Coast or even in the state of Queensland. Additionally, I'm also aiming to extend my visa for a second year.

We have heard about WWOOF via a friend and spent 3 amazing weeks at two different hosts in Queensland, when we visited Australia in 2019. This trip was right after we finished our university studies and we wanted to explore and figure out where we wanted to go next. WWOOFing brought us together with so many great and interesting people and different perspectives and outlooks on life that we couldn´t have experienced any other way. We still cherish those memories very much, are still in contact with our previous hosts, and are eager to make new experiences with this program.

160 Acre farm with 70 acres cleared producing free range eggs, with new trees planted, gardens that need maintaining and pasture work

learn more about agricultural and be more close to nature , make friends.I like quiet environments and making music with instruments, I have an almost completely plant-based diet and I love nature and animals. I had some agricultural experiences helping a friend in her garden and when I worked in a village in Italy I took the goats to graze and fed the chickens, I would like to learn more about agricultural life, I have the desire to buy a piece of land one day and build a house, I feel the need to be closer to nature.

As I said before, I'm Léa, a 23-year-old French woman who arrived in Australia at the beginning of November. I'm here to discover the magical country that is Australia. I want to discover all the facets of the country and that's how I ended up creating this profile, because now that I've been able to discover some of the big cities, I want to discover the authentic Australian culture and all this by helping those who will welcome me. For this wonderful trip, I'm accompanied by my best friend, Laura: a young woman of 21. We're not friends for nothing, as we're known to be similar and have the same qualities 🙂
