I first heard about wwoofing from a friend of mine, who was in Australia in 2019 and I instantly loved the idea of getting to know locals while doing something good and learning about sustainable methods of eg. farming. I hope that I will learn new skills, improve my English and meet interesting and open people through wwoofing while getting an insight in the life away from tourism.

I would love to learn new skills and just do things I won't have the chance to do in a city. I'd like to escape the bustling nature of the city and experience the quiet life with your gardens and animals.

I'd like to create my own farm in the future in Japan, but I don't have some skills for plants and animals to grow up. So I'd like to learn it in the WWOOF. Also, I like cooking but I can’t make some foods except Japanese food. So I’d like to exchange cultures in WWOOF and I'd like to cook some foods I learned in this experience for my family in Japan. Then I’d like to experience instructive experiences which I can experience only in Australia!!

I want to volunteer with families and organisations so I can immerse myself in a different way of life and do what I have always dreamed of doing. I hope to gain animal care experience and to become comfortable being independent and with solo travelling.

We joined WWOOF to fill some of our time travelling, learn about different cultures and work in an environment that we would not have the opportunity to work in the UK. We hope to meet new people, learn and spend time in an alternative location.

I joined WWOOF to learn sustainable farming, contribute to organic agriculture, and experience cultural exchange. I aim to gain practical skills, grow personally, and build lasting connections.

I joined WWOOF so that I could get the opportunity to live through new and novel experiences that I wouldn't get back in my home country, Singapore. I think it's easy to live with familiar comforts, but there's so much that the world has to offer and I believe that now (while I am still young, able-bodied and I don't have family commitments) is the best time for me to try new things, discover myself, become more independent, and hopefully find a sense of purpose! I'm looking forward to learning more about permaculture, sustainable farming practices, living sustainably, partake in the beautiful experience of growing and tending to something, as well as spending time in nature.

My english are not really good but I would like to work on it by doing manuel activities, in the garden or elsewhere I can do everything, by talking with people.

A strong interest in agricultureI'm passionate about participating in agricultural volunteering for several reasons. Firstly, I believe in the importance of sustainable food production and want to contribute to local communities' self-sufficiency. Secondly, I value the opportunity to connect with nature and learn traditional farming methods firsthand. Additionally, I see volunteering as a way to give back to society and support farmers who often face challenges such as labor shortages. Moreover, I'm excited about the chance to meet like-minded individuals and form lasting friendships while working towards a common goal. Overall, agricultural volunteering aligns with my values of environmental stewardship, community engagement, and personal growth, making it a rewarding experience I eagerly anticipate.

We both come from the Midwest, so have an admiration for farmers and want to know what it means to work on an organic farm. We’ve gardened at home but would like to learn new methods for sustainable living when we return.

I love to learn about growing food, seeing forests grow and learn about plants. I aim to build on this knowledge while exploring different geographical systems of Australia.

Great way to make new friends.  Looking for work on the land.  Wanting to meet new people and make a long lasting connection.

I really enjoy being outside and connecting to the land, I want to travel with a purpose and found myself drawn to WWOOF as a way of meeting others in a gentle and purposeful way. I am drawn to Australia and New Zealand through the pull of maternal ancestory and see myself as a global citizen, fortunate enough to have time to explore. Being a WWOOF volunteer will enable be to stay grounded - literally and spiritually! I want to learn more about indigenous people's land practices, organic farming in Australia and how this may support the global care of the earth.

For an adventure and to meet new people working in nature. I am currently living in qld and then travelling in Tasmania, SA and VIC Feb- March and want to find a place that needs a hand in a garden or on a farm. I am working as a musician and artist when travelling and also want to mix it up and work outside with soil and plants and people. It’s a dream of mine to get to know the land and it’s keepers more closely. This feeds into my art and music too.

My sister has experienced the farm life a little bit in Japan. I’m jealous her and I’ve always wanted to try that. I’m looking forward to seeing amazing people and a wonderful farm!

Because WWOOFing is the perfect way to spend time in one place, taking time to really learn about a culture, meet new people and the local community, while gaining so many experiences, skills and joy.

My friend invited me."I probably wouldn't have participated if I was alone, but I was interested in it, so I decided to try it because it was such an opportunity."I would like to enrich my life in Australia by experiencing various experiences.

Last Summer I quit my job for a gap year and went traveling with my girlfriend for 7 months. While I enjoyed my time traveling immensely, I realized, that I missed learning new skills and working with my hands. I heard about wwoof from my girlfriend and was very interested in the concept of learning about organic farming in a hands on experience. I think it is great to get to know the Australian farm life and being able to get to know a new family.  I realized how important in this time and age it is for things to grow and be cultivated on organic farms. Therefor I want to experience farm work in an organic cattle farm.

In Australia, i want to learn and develop new skills, practicing new activities. Therefore, WWOOF is a great plateform that will allows me to contact hosts and enrich my stay. I'm looking for opportunities linked to my interest in nature.

I heard it from someone I knew at uni and I thought it was such a brilliant idea to experience and to learn farmig in a lot of methods as well as enjoying different culuture and improving my English skills.
