My aim from woofing is to learn new skills, learn about the land into which I was born, meet new people and dive into different ways of living. I hope to use the skills and knowledge shared by others to incorporate into my life and to pass on what I learn to those around me.

I travel between 2 homes and welcome WWOOFers at either or both. 1: Basic old cottages & caravans at a beautiful beach on the Mornington Peninsula which used to be part of a farm & is now growing food & indigenous vegetation for wildlife habitat. 2: An old house and garden near Yarra River parks close to Melbourne. Both places are organic, influenced by permaculture and my environmental work & training. Volunteering includes gardening, building, maintenance, care of animals & household. I enjoy cultural exchange & sharing many interests. Life full of animals, books, art & music. We welcome children b.a. & mature aged WWOOFers. Non-smokers. Mixed diet.

I would love to join because it would be a great personal experience for me as a person. My friend told me all of her experiences from her time as a WWOOFER and i fell in love with the stories

To learn, to connect, and to grow. Sharing experience and knowledge is invaluable. It seems there is a lot of that to be shared in the organic farming industry. I aspire to have a piece of land with fellow beings who are aligned to farm, live, work, and play on. To further gain knowledge, inspiration, and experience, I would love to do some WWOOFing. I also love living in community and it seems this is the platform to fulfill that, the above and I am sure plenty more.

I'd like to learn various cultures and lives. I'm interested in environmental problems and I'd like to live ecofriendly. I have few opportunities to interact with people from abroad while I'm in Japan, so I'd like to enjoy interact with them.

I joined WWOOF as I have obtained the 462 work and holiday visa, and wanted to experience living in Australia for awhile. As someone who enjoys being in nature, I have always wanted to try doing work in a non-office setting and am curious about the agricultural/animal care practices that different places have adopted. Additionally, I will be embarking on a 1-week WWOOF trip to Taiwan in September as a first experience to organic farming. I am also keen to meet new friends and individuals from all walks of life through WWOOF as I believe it is beneficial to be exposed to different backgrounds and cultural practices apart from my own upbringing in Singapore.

This site will allow me to meet potential hosts for woofing. Being able to work without worrying about where I sleep at night and how I'm going to eat will be a plus. There are three very important points that woofing could bring me. First discover the local culture. Secondly, meet a family with whom you could improve my English. And lastly to be able to discover new skills in the workplace.

To learn and grow my experience in things. I would love to make more connections and meet new awesome people. Travel more places and see more things. I want to learn as much as I can.

I recently finished a 3 month trip in Europe and although it was an amazing experience, I found that I really value integrating in the local communities. The WWOOF opportunities are a great way to explore more meaningfully through a hands on opportunity. I am still at a point in my life where I have plenty of time and I really want to explore the unique opportunities that WWOOF offers!

We joined WWOOF for a way to travel around Australia while living off the land and fully embracing new experiences. We're excited to meet new people and learn from the hosts, both about their farms and their families. We want to grow as individuals and as a couple, and continue to see more of the world around us.

To gain more knowledge about farming, sustainable farming, sustainable living and to practice that knowledge, and experience a different local side of Australia.

I wish to join WWOOF to change my daily routine and discover a way of life perhaps far from mine. I would like to meet new people and share their daily lives while helping them. Discover a new culture, new dish and in turn discover French recipes.

After feeling the need for a break from the busy life in New York City, I turned to my friends for advice on what to do next. Many of them recommended WWOOFing, a concept I was unfamiliar with at the time. When I discovered that I could work on a farm, vineyard, or brewery in Australia through WWOOFing, I knew I had found the perfect fit! Traveling is a passion of mine, and I've been fortunate enough to explore various places. WWOOF offers me the fantastic opportunity to combine work and travel, benefiting not only myself but also the hosts I'll be working for. It truly is an incredible resource that aligns perfectly with my interests and aspirations.

I joined WWOOF to support my dream of traveling and furthering my knowledge of different cultures, agricultures, and to live a simpler lifestyle. It has always been something i have been interested in trying for quite some time now. I hope to make new friends in the process as well.

From our previous travel experiences, we really think the best way to really discover a country is by connecting with locals and participating to activities. Sharing moments and learning new skills are always an enriching experiences

I came to the Northern Rivers for a yoga retreat in July and fell in love with the area. I have been looking for work for my 2nd year visa for some time now, and seeing as my partner is Australian and we would like to be able to work independently of each other, the Northern Rivers seemed like an ideal place to relocate where I could find some regional/farm work and Louis could carry on doing what he does for a living. After weeks of looking for paid work in the area, I heard about WWOOF Australia through a potential employee who notified me of flood and bush fire prevention work being eligible work for 2nd & 3rd year visas.

I joined WWOOF to find interesting farms where I can help for some days/weeks. A friend from university is now a WWOOF host herself and is making good experience with young people helping on her farm. I think this is an interesting way to get in touch with the local community combined with helping them on their farms.

I want to learn slow living and permaculture practices. I would want to learn how to grow food, preserve food and cook the food directly from the farm. I would like to meet new people and learn from them. Volunteer work is a good way to learn and meet new people. It is also a way to travel to different places in the world.

Because at this point in my life I have a feeling I need to go somewhere else than living in a very busy city. I am longing for a quiet, simple and outside life.

I hope to learn a lot about working on a farm and farm life in general. I think everyone should work on a farm at one point in their life to know how life used to be for our forefathers. The reason I want to go to Australia is because of the crazy insects and animals that can be found there. I get really excited whenever I see a creature that I have never seen before. Another reason for Australia is because I think that Australians have the best sense of humor of all English speaking countries.
