I heard about WWOOFing from a friend who used to own an avocado farm. They told me what a great system and organisation it was and I really resonated with the idea of trading labour for a place to stay and some home grown produce .

I'm very motivated to discover work on the farm and meet other people to learn from their experience. I want to share the dailylife with new people and improve my English. I'm able to help as much as possible.

I wish to try and learn new things, during these short period before my degree course starts. I love nature, and I would like to experience farm life, as I have always been in the city in Malaysia.

I joined WWOOF because growing up my dad had a small garden that I always helped out on and it was a way for us to bond so I have always been interested in agriculture. I am a hard worker, love the outdoors and am looking for a cheap way to explore a new country while giving back to the local community!

After the shit show of the last two years, I'm looking to meet new warm friendly kind people, get my hands in the soil and help out where I can. I find volunteer work to be rewarding and I genuinely want to learn from others as much as possible.  Community spirit through organisations like WWOOF are super important and I highly value the opportunities it brings.

Really interested in learning more about how to grow food, I've tried my hand at starting a garden and was always interested in working on a larger farm for a bit. WWOOF also seems like a great way to meet people from all different walks of life and I'd love to hear about people's journeys

I believe that organic methods are the best way to build a sustainable and restorative relationship with the land. I love to learn and WWOOFing is a fantastic opportunity to experience organic farming in a practical way with people with skills and experience who know and love that life. It is also an opportunity to live and work in a local community, and to understand farm life from the inside. It’s a great way to help others.

As people who already work in the outdoor field, we wanted to expand our horizon by learning about and be involved in organic farming/ agriculture. So we thought, what better place to do that than WWOOF in Australia! We are hoping to gain experience and knowledge about the techniques, history, and land through the hosts that we work for while being able to discover and explore the beauty of Australia.

We joined WWOOF because we thought it would be a great way to travel. We hope to meet good people and learn new skills. We also believe it would be a positive experience for our 2 children.

I have just finished my studies in digital communication at the university. However, I find that my English is not developed enough to work in this field, and especially in sports communication (clubs, federations etc..). That's why I hope through WWOOFing to become much better in English. Moreover, while working, WWOOFing will allow me to meet people with whom I can discuss and have a good time.

I am currently taking a leave of absence from graduate school in Japan and coming to Australia to learn about foreign cultures. Therefore, I want to participate in this program because I am interested in Australian agriculture and the way of life, and I want to actually experience it through helping with work and housework. I also want to improve my English skills by communicating with local people. And I want to contribute to society by making use of my energy and passion.

I'm longing to save up to travel the world but until then I think I will give WWOOFing a go so I can travel locally... I want to work outdoors and have a break from the city and my routine every so often. I think it'd be good 4 the spirit.

To see who I might visit, where I might stay, what I might do and how much I can learn. Also, my podcast is about how people bring meaning and connection into their lives, so if I find people who engage in activities or a lifestyle that brings them connection and meaning I would love to interview them for my podcast.

I joined WWOOF because my older sister went WWOOFing in Finland in 2006 and had an amazing time on a biodynamic farm. I was so curious to try it myself, but was a new mother the timing wasn't right. Now my children are older, I'd really love to connect with WWOOFing communities, because I believe WWOOFing communities will be the most resilient in years to come, I'd like to learn how people begin, how they choose the land they cultivate, the books and people that most inspired them and I'd like to contribute to the WWOOFing community through practical experience! I'd like my children to join me for this experience to build on their curiosity and learn new skills.

I'm planning to take on the family farm in Bairnsdale in the future, and am searching for alternatives to beef cattle grazing. I'm hoping to be inspired by other people who are farming in alternative ways to the mainstream, and on smaller scales. I want to see how people are making it work, what the challenges are, and how I might be able to go about it. It's always best to see people's ideas in action, and to learn directly from them. I would love to get some experience of working life on other types of farms, as I've only worked on our family's cattle farm.
