Why I became a WWOOF Host
Our family got involved with woofing around 2012 and we enjoyed the cultural exchange, making new friends, sharing this beautiful area and really appreciate the help to look after the property. During that time we hosted around 35 woofers. We took a break over the covid years and look forward to welcoming new friends.
