On this WWOOFING journey I wish to achieve growth. I wish to learn by others before me and experience different lifestyles. I intend to learn about agriculture, fermentation, animals, farming, plant farming, anything related to an earthy lifestyle I am here to learn more about and experience. I hope to meet new people, stumble upon unexpected guidance, laugh with strangers, laugh with new found friends. I hope to tell peoples stories through photography, or document how the farming, outdoors lifestyle feels and what one might seek within. I hope to grow. My intention for this journey is to be open, say yes to opportunities, explore, connect, learn, be with myself in silence, allow myself to get to know myself in a new environment, around and with new people of a different cultures, beliefs and ideologies. I am excited to spend time outside, helping someone manage their farm, being away from my phone and be here now. I enjoy yoga, but this is for me a chance to explore the means of meditation and being here now, in this experience. I have been blessed before with trust from a host, and I cant wait to get to know even more people, and this time truly be able to give back with love for their farm in any shape or from. I have grown up with dogs and feel connected to animals on every level. Just as much as trees haha. This past year our family dog passed and thus we had to find a new home for our young husky. I am so happy we found a great home for her, but it has been empty without any animals at home. So I am looking forward to hopefully be close to animals again and learn about the animal life on farms!

I joined WWOOF on a recommendation from another backpacker friend who had a really fulfilling WOOFing experience. I have lived in cities my whole life, so I am really excited to challenge myself, to experience rural life, learn some completely new skills and meet some interesting people!

As I mentioned earlier, I’ve fallen in love with Australia so much, so I decided to extend my Working Holiday visa. I wanted to find a way to contribute something meaningful to this country as part of the extension process. While many people choose to work on farms or in factories in the primary industry to meet the visa requirements—which I understand can be meaningful in its own way—I was hoping to do something even more rewarding and memorable, something that would feel meaningful both for myself and for Australia. The idea of living with a local host family also felt really special to me. I became particularly interested in WWOOF after a Japanese friend, who is currently doing WWOOFing, highly recommended it and shared how much she enjoys the experience.

I joined WWOOFing because I want to see Australia through the eyes of a resident. I want to get to know the culture and the work and the food and the people living here. I want to become a part of a family and feel comfortable where I go. I want to share my experiences and want to hear your stories so they can become part of mine.

I have been aware of WWOOF since the 1990s and have previously been hosted in Australia and Africa. I am also a member of WWOOF Canada and plan to travel to North America at some stage in the future to WWOOF.

I joined WWOOF as a way to experience Australia meaningfully while transitioning into a new chapter of my life. I'm preparing to begin postgraduate study in business in Sydney. I’ll be on a Working Holiday Visa from August 2025 to February 2026, and I’m using this time to work, travel, and learn through hands-on experiences. WWOOF gives me the chance to slow down, build practical skills, and connect with people in a way that’s grounded and human. I’m excited to learn from hosts who are passionate about sustainability, land care, and intentional living, and I’m more than ready to put in the work to support them.

To meet new people and learn from them, whether that be their philosophies, skills, languages or lifestyle. After hearing about it from a friend, it sounded like the perfect way to integrate into a space, learning from the people that live there, and leaving with an authentic impression of that place. It also seems to be the most cost-effective and fulfilling way to travel. I am keen to explore new ways to live and be inspired by how people conduct their lives in an eco-friendly way.

Because i like to help in different ways, always knowing why , like the main reason. So every work would have a porpuse. Helping rebuild the enviroment in Australia , knowing the history behind makes me feel good for participate. Also because i like this country, and the nature in it.

We joined WWOOF as it sounds like a great way to meet likeminded people in our new home and spend our time learning what we enjoy learning about. We want to own our own piece of land one day and use it to grow our own produce, so WWOOF will be a great way to get ideas about what will work for us etc.

We would like to know about agriculture. Farming, dairy farm, gardening like everything else. Also want to know different things like culture, food and working style. We like to learn that something new and something more deeply. We love nature and being outside in the sun. We feel there is something exciting at there with WWOOF life.

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.

Highly recommended from a fellow WWOOF'er. I have heard that this is the best way to get in contact with like minded people that have similar interests and passions.

My desire to join WWOOF comes from the belief that working on Organic Farms is an opportunity to have a hands-on experience about what farming is all about while contributing to an activity that promotes sustainable practices. I also hope to reconnect to a simple way of living and being more connected to nature, which I have felt disconnected from several times in the past few years, all while meeting many different people and forming lasting connections with them.

I’m visiting Australia from my home in London to spend time with family, but I also see this as a great opportunity to learn and grow in other ways. I’ve spent several years working in office jobs, but I’m now looking for a lifestyle change and a break from the routine. I’ve developed a growing interest in permaculture, regenerative growing practices, and rewilding, and I’m excited to learn more about these areas while also embracing a more outdoor-focused way of life. I’m also eager to meet like-minded people, try out new crafts, and learn from those embracing a more sustainable way of living.

Cultural exchange, there's lots different about here and where i come from and this is a great way to learn and it's a good way to travel and meet interesting people. Also to help to get settled In a new country.

I would like to join WWOOF to gain experience about farming, learn more about growing vegetables and in general about farm life and enjoy being in nature. I am also interested to work on a flower farm as I do love flowers. WWOOF is a great way to meet people, learn about different cultures, gain work experience and get a break away from the busy corporate world in nature. I heard about WWOOF the first time when I was in New Zealand and was always interested to join. Now I feel that it is the right time for me to explore my interest to change a direction in my life and explore and gain experience working on a farm.

Hobby farm on 160 acres, lots of dogs that run the house. Chickens, Ducks, cows, horses and pigs. Only been here for 2 years, so lots of projects on the go! We have a cottage on the farm which is all self contained. We are about 45 minutes from Ipswich. Its a beautiful area with a creek running through the valley.

I joined wwoof because I want to learn more about farming and gardening. I'm hoping to explore some different areas and meet some great people along the way as I harness these skills.
