This year, I will have completed my Bachelor's in Environmental Biology and Chemistry, but before heading into a Master's degree, I'd like discover the wonders of Australia, explore the cities, learn more about the culture and what environmentally friendly farming really entails. It's one thing to study it in a classroom and in labs, but I'd like to know how it goes on a real farm. It's also the perfect opportunity for me to step out of my comfort zone and gain some perspective away from the tiny French village I've lived in for most of my life. As I'm quite shy, this will be great way for me to meet people and make some new friends. I'm not intimidated by hard work, having helped my parents in our own garden with construction, maintenance and tending to our veggie plot. If you'll have me, I'll be more than willing to help around with any and all tasks that need to be done.

I have travelled by bicycle from Canada to Peru, and have experienced so much kindness and compassion from people along the way. I always enjoy meeting new people and sharing stories. WWOOFING is a great place to meet people with the same values and ideas. It can be a very rewarding experience for everyone involved. I enjoy learning new skills and pass on knowledge to others also. I Hope to have my own property one day to help out travellers and fellow WOOFERS along the way.

I would like to improve my English and broaden my horizons. I would also like to get to know the culture and real Australian life.

We joined WWOOF( myself and my 12 year old child ) to share an adventure, to take time, like a gap year between life as it has been and the life that is moving towards us, we are excited for the adventure and a journey of meeting good folk and gatheting rich memeories along the way. We hope to learn new skills and maybe teach some also. We also see it as an oppurtunity to explore the dynamics of resiprosity in action .

I want to meet new people and get a closer look to the life in Australia. It's my first time doing a work and travel, I'm looking forward for this experience. I haven't heard anything about WWOOF, but I hope and think it's a good portal to find a host.

To learn valuable skills in agriculture that will ne useful all my life. Especially because I plan on visiting Mongolia next year and live as a Nomad for a few weeks or months, like my Grandmother used to do. For that I need to learn how to take care of myself with nothing but nature, which will include taking care of animals and perhaps growing my own vegetables. Also I want to live away from the busy life of the city and spend more time in nature and with myself. Finally I also hope that the skills I will learn will help me find a better job so I can save up enough money for my travels 🙂

I joined WWOOF through American Institute of Foreign Studies (AIFS) and am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic & Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

This is great idea to know a territory ( Sydney for me). Before my job in Victoria I need to find a accomodation (échange to work). My aim is to visit Sydney. To try a woof hosts should be a nice way. I have an environment sensibility and love walking in different parks. The last 3 years I worked in the vines the plant and the soil between oenology staff. So I can easilly work out. I also need to speak english one of reason why I’m here.

First, I thought I would like to feel Australian nature. I’m living in Brisbane and it was first time to live city. At the beginning, I was so nervous, but I could get used to living there little by little. However, these days I’m feeling I wanna feel nature and live rural because I grew up there. That’s why I decided it! Also, I’d like to talk with you and communicate a lot!

I’d like to make new experiences on different farms and learn new approaches for sustainable farming. I think i can profit from the Australian way of life and insights in the agriculture and hope to earn some dollars as well

Would like to learn about agriculture. I have 100acres in Northern California and Id like to get it to the point of being reasonably self sufficient. I’d like to learn more about planting techniques, agriculture maintenance and soil maintenance.

To trade my time and efforts for life experience in pursuit of a more harmonious and sustainable future. Not much more to it! It's all about meeting people, doing good, learning great skills, in beautiful and healthy environment. I know the work isn't always beautiful but this is essential part of the process and only increases appreciation for.all that is good. This isn't a free holiday, I prefer to be busy and useful than doing as little as possible. I believe there's real value in manual work for body mind and environment. Keeping costs down is always a bonus, extends the time I can be involved in meaningful action. X

The main reason is to improve my English skills.Originally, I love talking to people, so I want to talk to foreigners more. And I thought that woof could create an opportunity to go abroad that I wanted to go for my own life experience. I like to work with people to accomplish something.I also love places full of nature.

I am in a career change and taking the time to discover new things close to nature seems like a great idea to do it. I love nature and often go for walks in the forest or trekking in my Swiss mountains. I live in a rural area and have already helped farmers in my region when it comes time to harvest potatoes. By wwoofing, I want to discover new people and new jobs, but I also plan to visit the region and move around in my free time.

We’ll be able to fulfil a big dream of ours in the next couple of months, which is to stay for a lengthy period of time in our favourite country, Australia. Of course, travelling to different places will be a huge highlight. However, we also would like to use the first couple of months to do something different. We both really love the idea of being around and staying with locals for a while, learning about their lives and becoming part of their community, even if it’s just for a couple of weeks. It would also allow us to use and brush up our English as much as possible, which would be a really nice plus for us. Well, and the Woofer program seems to offer a great opportunity for exactly that.

I joined wwoof because i like the woofing mentality, the exchange of knowledge. I want to discover the unique species of Australie. Also woofing  help meeting kind people.

We're seeking unique experiences while traveling and looking for ways to explore the country on a budget. We enjoy meeting new people, hearing their stories, and seeing how others live. Originally, we planned to settle in one place and work before traveling, but we realized we'd feel more fulfilled by working and traveling in a more local and personal way. We're here in Australia for an extended stay, and we're eager to find meaningful work where we can contribute and grow during our time here.

We joined WWOOF because we want to get experience of working on a farm. Tess is a vegetarian and cares very much about the environment and wildlife. We thought this would be a great way to help out and see a part of Australia that most tourists won't experience.
