My stay with Mr. Harim and the academy was for 2 months. I loved the rotating door of volunteers who came to stay, I met lifelong friends. There is a lot of freedom and independence here to explore the surrounding neighborhoods. The group trips organized by Mr. Harim are so lovely, and I saw all the beautiful sights of Morocco!

Sydney is amazing, what a champion. You'd be crazy not to have her stay.
She's one of genuine ones, both in her attitude to life and her desire to help out.
Lots of fun to help and hang out with. Definitely has some interesting stories once she gets to know you!
Just don't take her skating, she's hazard.

Wowie. How to sum up my month here?! Honestly, I had the best time of my life! Wholesome, genuinely amazing humans are what you’ll encounter here. Teaching consisted of me accompanying a teacher to their class and engaging in conversation with every student at the camp. I learned a lot about the bahasa lifestyle and loved living in the jungle.

Sydney was such a great help and an awesome person to hang out with. She helped out around the house and really able to operate independently.
She’s got a great sense of humour and is honestly a pleasure to hang out with. Our friends and family also thought she was fabulous.
We’d host you again in a flash Sydney, hope to see you again.

Living out in the rainforest off the Sunshine Coast was incredible! Blue skies, and beautiful greenery all around, I was at peace while completing the work for the day.
I had a lot of independence, but it’s nice when there’s a pool on site or the beach is 10 minutes by bus up the road.

I stayed with Graham and Eleanor for two weeks on Lamb Island. The easy-goin atmosphere of the island is a nice reset from non-stop traveling.
Tasks I helped out with were gardening: repotting, fertilizing, and watering the plants. I sanded/repainted doors/cabinets and helped out with a big project of shoveling gravel for the downstairs walkway.… read more

Sydney stayed with me for 3.5 weeks. During that time she was super helpful, cheerful, and fun! She was a big help to me with the adult dogs and newborn puppies. She worked hard and blended in super well with the various other Workawayers I had here during her stay. Some of her tasks included helping to care/clean up after the new puppies,… read more
