Why I joined WWOOF
It seems like a better way of working while travelling than the standard way of finding work, having that monetary relationship, worrying about where to live, trying to negotiate wages and all the other humdrum stuff. It sounds like the hosts are willing to share their knowledge, knowhow and experiences and be friendly at the same time. A very welcome change.
