Vom Host für Workawayer (Grzegorz)
At first I wasn't planning on hosting volunteers this year because there isn't much work to do at my house right now, but when I read his profile I thought Gregory was an interesting person worth getting to know. He is a calm, funny and sensitive guy, mature and a good worker and it was a pleasure to share a week with him. He's into poetry,
… read more theater and music, so it was easy to connect with him because they are things that interest me too. He has been my third volunteer from Poland and with his presence he has confirmed to me that the Poles are great people :) Thank you for everything Gregory, I wish you a happy life.
Un abrazo amigo!

I spent one week with Jose. We made an appointment a month before or so. The communication was very good. On my first day Jose showed me the tasks and on the following days I worked mostly by myself, at my own pace. It was a garden work. During the weekend we worked together, constructing a shelter for tools. I enjoyed it. Jose is a very open,
… read more fair and funny guy. We shared our meals and drinks and had many good conversations. I feel we got to know each other pretty well.
I had my own room. It was comfortable and cozy. The house itself is very beautiful, with paintings on the walls inside, a terrace and a nice garden. There are a lot of musical instruments. Jose is a musician and has a good sense of art.
I had plenty of time to do my own stuff, go for trips or to the ocean seaside. San Juan is a quiet little town, but it’s close to bigger towns like Icod or Puerto de la Cruz.
Gracias, Jose!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

It's been a year and a half since Erin was here and I still remember her with a smile 😊 It was a pleasure to facilitate her first steps in the garden and see her enjoy putting her hands in the soil. He cooked very good dishes with vegetables from the garden! She is a beautiful soul, creative, warm, funny, smart.. We had time to improvise together,

Wow! What a magical workaway stay. I was so taken aback by the beauty of Jose's house, his village and his lifestyle. It was even better than I ever imagined, and I was made to feel very welcome. Jose was very patient and kind in showing me how to do some basic gardening, as it is outside of my comfort zone, and I really appreciated it. I hope the

I spent a lot of time with the cats, in the garden and at the local rock pool. I made a video for Jose and his bandmates which was so fun (I recommend a music jam with him anytime!), I made food from the garden and I also met a previous workawayer there who became a good friend and we did some travelling together after.
This is probably one of the best workaway experiences you can have - a beautiful soul like Jose, a lot of privacy in your own room / studio, opportunities to learn, lovely nature, animals and friends. Jose, thank you for everything!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

I had a wonderful time at Joses' house. I think we connected really well and had a fun time, lots of deep talk and shared adventures. I particularly enjoyed the trip with him and his loveley family memebers to a cave in the mountains, where they made food and music. Even though my spanish speaking skills were not so great, I always felt at home

I love the mural I completed for Jose and I think it's such a great room with all the different artists works.

I stayed 11 days at Jose's place and it was a really great time! I was painting a mural in his living room and enjoyed the job so much. Jose is a really kind, easy-going and relaxed person with a good sense of humor and interesting stories to tell, so it was really fun to talk with him about life.

Spending these two weeks with Anna have been a real pleasure.

Not to mention her creative ability! A great painter with a beautiful personal style. We understood each other right away and at the end the work was magnificent.
Thanks Anna for this shared time, in San Juan you have a place when you need it, a little piece of your spirit stays on the walls of my living room :)

I spent two weeks at Jose's house. My task was to paint a wall art in the living room. I finished it a couple of days before my departure so had time to make something extra. Finally, I covered almost the whole wall with my illustration :D I felt great about that job. Jose took care of everything that was needed and put no pressure. I could follow

I not only had a chance to do something creative but I also got an opportunity to learn Spanish, try local, traditional Canarian food, and participate in a jam session with Jose's friends which was one of the best experiences in my life! We also had many deep conversations and for me, it was inspiring to get to know Jose's way of living ;)
To sum it up, I found a place full of friendly people, warmth, and healthy, "muy tranquilo" flow! I loved it and already miss you, guys!

Staying with Jose at the start of my travels in Tenerife was the best thing that could happen to me. It was also my first workaway and feel grateful for the experience. Jose is very patient, open minded and calm which compliments the peaceful and pretty village of San Juan de la Rambla. Jose's place is only 2 min walk from a pretty beach and

I highly suggest staying with Jose 😊Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Natalia estuvo en mi casa 10 días en los que fue una buena compañera, una persona discreta, tranquila y de trato agradable que hizo un gran trabajo de mantenimiento de la huerta, además con iniciativa para ayudar con el orden y la limpieza dentro de casa. Me pareció una persona seria en la que se puede confiar. También cocina una típica sopa

Staying with Jose was awesome! He is very welcoming and great person to get along with.

Staying with Jose in this beutiful village was exactly what I thought it would be after reading his profile and contacting him by emails. Jose is a wonderful, chilled, kind and mindful person, providing some great deep conversations balanced with giving space to you to do with your time what you want.

It was awesome to participate in some jam sessions with his friends, getting to know some amazing neighbours, practicing my Spanish and getting a chance to travel around the island.
Helping in the garden and in the house is a pure pleasure, not mentioning two lovely cats that share some chilled coffee time in the sun with us.
I'm pretty sure we'll meet again and that I'll come back to stay with Jose in San Juan by the ocean.
