Though this is an extremely delayed review, my experience in Paso Robles on Mark's gorgeous property remains unforgettable. Mark himself is an incredibly generous person, and the accommodations were better than ever expected. The "work" was very light--I felt encouragement to explore all Paso had to offer more than to complete a set of tasks,
… read more which was very kind of Mark. Paso is a dream-like landscape scattered with a multitude of wineries big and small, and I had so much fun exploring as many as I could in the three weeks I was there! I also made my way to a lot of the surrounding beaches/coastal towns, though not warm and swimmable like I had naively expected them to be in May. Being my first solo trip, I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant host, accommodations, or environment.
Having a car (or rental car) is key! Also, make sure you hit up Les Petites Canailles while you're there--the most incredible french-inspired restaurant ever. The Sea Chest Oyster Bar in Cambria was also magical--get there early, people wait in line for hours! Be sure to check out Kukkula Winery and Hubba Wines. High Street Market & Deli after picking up some goods from Megan's Organic Market made for a great day, too. I can't wait to come back!!!

My stay with with Mark was one the best experiences I have had. He was such a great host! I stayed for about a week, and got to learn about the wine world and even help out with the harvest. As stated in other feedbacks, the “work” is very light and enjoyable overall. The area is absolutely gorgeous, and just such an amazing experience overall.

Mark, I apologize for my super late feedback! Thank you so much for everything and hope all is well!
One of the best experiences of my life. Mark is one of those persons that leave a footprint in your heart because of his lightning and open heart.
His only present gave me inspiration to be more grateful with life and pursue my dreams. He is definitely an example of resilience with a entrepreneur spirit and a wide capacity to reinvent himself in

He treats people and animals with kindness and generosity. It's not surprising his neighbors love him. He also has a very interesting life full of stories. As a host he is easygoing, patient, kind, respectful and generous. I really enjoyed helping him to complete projects, creating tools, and doing some chores for him.
Thank you Mark for for sharing so much!
I hope to see you again.Feedback

Vom Host für Workawayer (Lena)
Lena was a great guest. She is easy going and respectful. She blended in well with my neighbors and friends. And she took good care of my new rambunctious cat Ellie. I would definitely have her as a guest again.

I stayed with Mark for 2 weeks. It was my first work away experience I absolutely loved it. It was a work away, but it was more than just that. He treats you as his friend. You get to experience the life that he lives, you get to see different places, and really become apart of the Community. The neighbors were just as welcoming. I loved talking
… read more with them and spending time with all of them. Of course you will learn a lot more about wine, it is wine country. You'll even get to know his little cat Ellie, I quickly fell in love with her.
When it comes to the work, it depends when you go and what tasks he needs to be accomplished. I helped sort/clear out his two offices, light weeding, random little house chores, dug out an old tree and planted a new one with him, and even helped a little working on his new deck with Tony. But again he makes it more of an experience rather than just work.
Mark has many hobbies and can show you as many as you like. I learned about aviation and small planes, we even took a flight. He will show you his vineyard, of course. He loves music, and has a drum set, but mostly loves guitar and singing. His neighbors do as well I even went over with some of his neighbors and listened to them play and sing!! He obviously loves food, and wine... who doesn't. And so much more!!!
I feel like I could ramble on and on about what a great host Mark was and how great his community out there is. But you have to go there to experience it for your self. Everyone out there, everywhere you go is extremely nice. I can't thank him and his neighbors enough for the opportunity and hope to visit again soon!!!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
Vom Host für Workawayer (Jeanette )
Jeanette was a complete joy to have as a guest. I was a bit sad when she left. She is on an incredible motorcycle journey and I wish her all the best. I hope she can come back my way sometime in the future.

I had an unforgettable stay in Paso Robles for 9 days and I loved every second of it. I felt extremely welcomed by him and his neighbors. I thoroughly enjoyed doing activities like playing music, having a conversation, flying and having meals together. My tasks involved harvesting grapes, light cleaning around the house and looking after his

Vom Workawayer (Michelle) für Host
Fantastic stay with Mark, featuring occasional cameo appearances by Tiki, his sweet shy kitty! Mark is an incredibly gracious and thoughtful host. He has an amazing extended community of friends and neighbors that are equally welcoming and kind. The 'work' during this stay was primarily comprised of easily-accomplished tasks, with intermittent
… read more socializing, including wine tasting and music appreciation, which is why I put the quotes around 'work,' although I imagine that as he becomes more involved with Workaway (I was his inaugural experiment with the platform), he'll develop a more comprehensive list of ways guests can help him out. It was an absolute pleasure to be in his company and space, and I highly recommend this stay to others interested in music, wine, +/or small craft aviation. Looking forward to visiting again in the future!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
