Hi everyone. My name's Claud I'm a beekeeper and a horse trainer I live on a small island south of Greece called Kythira. The island is full of beautiful beaches and green small forests. I owe nearly 100 beehives and I need help maintaining the equipment and taking care of them. I also help a friend ride and train and take care of his horses. I'm constantly busy and almost always not at home. Ideally I would need help for a few hours a day. I have a car we can share if you have a driving licence. So you can explore around. Or I can be your guide in my free time.

Hello, thank you for looking at our listing. We've not hosted helpers through this site for a year but have hosted and have more recent references on a sofa-surfing app if you need to see more. **We are especially looking for people with carpentry and building skills but plenty of garden and organising work if you're unskilled.** We are Cathy (45) and Leo (who is 12 years old.) We live in a lovely, but messy little cottage in a very beautiful glen. Unfortunately at the moment there's several issues with the plumbing so please do not apply if you need a daily hot shower! We like to have several helpers so friends are welcome to apply, alternatively we are happy to take single travellers - but please be aware you may need to share a sleeping area with other helpers (who we will ensure are the same sex and similar age to you.) The accommodation is extremely basic, the house is in disarray and I currently resemble a headless chicken for much of the day! Only apply if you are comfor...

Update: I'm quite keen on anyone with: - A desire to help bring the garden into order (weeding, clearing, dealing with plant growth) - CAD (computer aided drafting/design) experience in the short term, am particularly keen on finishing up an OpenSCAD model. and sticking to FOSS tools. - Patience and a desire to learn ... We live in an inner Hobartian suburb (3-4km from the CBD) on a 1/4 acre block in a 1930s weather board ex-farmhouse (now suburban dream house ;-). On top of work and raising a daughter and two sons, I'm trying to maintain a garden and house and can always use help. We are five: Bernd and Dani, with children Gypsy Anna (2003), Leon (2013) and Felix (2017). There are spare bikes for getting around, a few bus routes nearby and it's not a long walk into town (4km or 30-40mins) or the North Hobart cafe strip (1km or 10-20 mins). The bikes may need maintenance though, as it will depend on how long since last ridden by guests, so bike maintenance skills are a plus if you...

We have a small farm. We moved from the city to produce our own food. We have sheep. We are trying to grow new saplings and trees and establish a food forest. We are conscious people who are permaculture certified and registered in the organic farm network. We have a sustainability-based perspective. We would like to host volunteers who will help us with these issues. You will carry the experiences of being part of a real farm throughout your life. You will gain wonderful experiences on the farm with Selçuk, the master of everything, and Kadriye, the cook of delicious meals. To make bread, you need flour, yeast and an oven. A person who produces everything himself learns to live without needing anyone. This is a great freedom. We have a lot of wwoof experiences. Thank you for read our profile..

Hi, my name is Ken, It's great to meet you here today. Now I am retired from work so I lead a casual lifestyle. I love to travel and am interested in meeting new people and building friendships. I am a practicing Christian. Actually I have over (30) years experience teaching and hosting international students. This experience gives me the ability to help anyone wishing to improve their conversational English while doing HelpX with me. Helping you to find your way in Australia and you to enjoy your stay is important to me. Can you help me ? I'm looking for someone special. Someone with an outgoing and happy personality. Are you a communicator willing to share your experiences. 😊Everything about me is pretty much normal. I'm fit and active. For ongoing medical reasons, I really need "an experienced, confident, licensed driver" to drive for me. Yes, you must have a license to drive in Australia. It would be great if you have plans to stay for four weeks or more. Then its easier f...

We have just begun hosting after a few years, as we could do with a bit of help again. We have a beautiful rural coastal property between Whakatane and Opotiki in the Bay of Plenty. We overlook the Waiotahe estuary and are a few minutes walk from Bryans Beach and Ohiwa Harbour - great kayaking, swimming, walking and fishing. We would like some help particularly on outside tasks such as cutting firewood, planting trees, painting and weedeating (strimming), as well as generally helping in the garden and around the house. To get to us, there are buses to both Opotiki and Whakatane and we can pick you up and drop you off there.

We are located in Northern NSW, roughly 30km away from the towns of Lismore, Mullumbimby and Byron Bay. Our slice of paradise is home to a stunning array of native vegetation and a bustling community of native wildlife, making it the perfect retreat for nature lovers and eco-warriors alike. We're seeking spirited souls to lend a hand with some room painting and general upkeep of the property. As a thank you, we're offering cozy private studio accommodation equipped with TV and internet. . Prefer the stars over a ceiling? We've got camping sites too! While we're all about sharing spaces like the bathroom, kitchen, and living room, our furry wildlife friends mean we're a no-dog zone.

Whether you're a master chef or someone who enjoys being cooked for, we've got the food covered in exchange for your awesome help (and maybe a hand...

I run private English school for children aged between 10 and 19 years old in a small city in West Sumatra. My goal as the principal of the school is to provide youth from my region with the English skills required to communicate better in the modern world, and therefore provide them with better opportunities in their lives. I would like to welcome any fluent English speakers under the age of thirty to come assist my teachers in the classroom. You would help immensely by having simple conversations with the students and give them a real English speaking experience inside or outside the classroom. All the students are very welcoming and curious about my visitors and I am certain that you will have a great experience while interacting with them. You can expect answering all their curious questions, pose for pictures and be invited for lunches, snacks and dinners. Classes in my school run from 2pm to 6pm and mostly consist of two lessons/classrooms per day. I would also like to invite...

*2024 UPDATE* We are looking for a couple or two friends to stay for a couple of weeks or more if agreed. We are preparing our property for sale and we need to clean it up. There is much work removing trees, tidying up the garden and removing debris from the fires and recent storms. There is also cleaning work helping Cate with her property management business. During free time you are welcome to borrow our electric scooters and go swimming and exploring. We live in Mallacoota, one of Australia's most beautiful places on the southeast coast. It is a World Biosphere Reserve in the middle of the Croajingolong National Park next to the ocean with an estuarine lake system and many, many beaches. We are 2km from the town centre and 3km from the nearest beach. There are about seven magnificent beaches within 10km of us. Mallacoota is 540km from Melbourne, 630km from Sydney and 360km from Canberra with limited access via public transport so keep that in mind when planning your schedule...

Skills can range from building, painting, cleaning, farming and general maintenance. Someone with a sense of humour would be great.

Current projects (weather dependent) include: 1. reorganise toolshed 2. reorganise barn 3. move garden shed I offer accommodation and meals included in return for help normally 5 days a week. After a week I'm happy to give a day tour of the battlefields ... Easy to find and get to .. .By train leave Paris at the Gare de St Lazare for Cherbourg. Get off at Lison station and I can meet you there.

Hi folks, YES, we achieved a lot since returning from a 3+ year break in Feb 2022, beautifying our wonderful property, something we could not have done on our own. We are thankful for having had great assistance from amazing volunteers over the years, enriching our lives culturally and socially while progressing our beautification projects. We are a fit & energetic older couple with the following background: - Rene, 68yo, Swiss origin, Architect / Photographer / Traveller / Retired Resort Owner & Operator / Retired Tour Operator / Retired Restaurateur / Handyman (DIY Building) / Landscaper / Gardener . - Julie, 64yo, Philippine origin, Chef / Traveller / Retired Resort Owner & Operator / Retired Tour Operator / Retired Restaurateur. Our hosting, as well as workflow, is intermediate, as such, we may have breaks in between and preferences & requirements may change. With most of the earlier days' heavy lifting on structural projects done, our current projects are more along fine-tunin...

We are establishing an arborteum on our rural property near Wellington and are looking for some fit people to help us with planting small trees and making tracks. Our home is tucked away in the hills that cradle the Plimmerton village which is just over 3km along a country road tothe village and the seaside. The rail station into central Wellington is in the village. Surrounded by hills our property is secluded. A walking track just along the road leads to the village. Our extensive garden and bush is tranquil although early in the morning the native birds can make a lot of noise. Visiting rabbits and hares pop in occasionally to steal the odd blade of grass . Next door is a large working farm. It is a rare privilege to be so close to our capital city and yet have rural activities next door. If you don't like sheep, cows and dogs close by our place will not be for you. We, Helen and Ian, are in our late 60's. Proud parents of three grown children, their partners and eight grandc...

Aloha Kākou, Welcome to my home and farmstay. This is a Hawaiian owned and operated homesteading project. One of the very few- if not only- Native Hawaiian Cultural Exchange work-trade opportunity in Hāwai'i. Rooted in sustainability and indigenous values closely tied to the land, I believe that we as humanity have the responsibility, and utmost privilege, of being caretakers of this earth. It is my goal to eventually become fully self-sufficient, living simply and peacefully in harmony with da ‘Aina (the land). I am completely non-profit, and do not sell any produce. My present aims are to provide food for myself and any helpers who stay here, and to share the knowledge I have about the land: growing, planting and gardening, with others who share my goals to work towards self sufficiency and have a desire to learn more about living from the land. This is knowledge that I hope will then be taken forward into your own future homesteading endeavours. The beautiful māla (garden) is si...

Hi everyone. My name's Claud I'm a beekeeper and a horse trainer I live on a small island south of Greece called Kythira. The island is full of beautiful beaches and green small forests. I owe nearly 100 beehives and I need help maintaining the equipment and taking care of them. I also help a friend ride and train and take care of his horses. I'm constantly busy and almost always not at home. Ideally I would need help for a few hours a day. I have a car we can share if you have a driving licence. So you can explore around. Or I can be your guide in my free time.

Hello, thank you for looking at our listing. We've not hosted helpers through this site for a year but have hosted and have more recent references on a sofa-surfing app if you need to see more. **We are especially looking for people with carpentry and building skills but plenty of garden and organising work if you're unskilled.** We are Cathy (45) and Leo (who is 12 years old.) We live in a lovely, but messy little cottage in a very beautiful glen. Unfortunately at the moment there's several issues with the plumbing so please do not apply if you need a daily hot shower! We like to have several helpers so friends are welcome to apply, alternatively we are happy to take single travellers - but please be aware you may need to share a sleeping area with other helpers (who we will ensure are the same sex and similar age to you.) The accommodation is extremely basic, the house is in disarray and I currently resemble a headless chicken for much of the day! Only apply if you are comfor...

Update: I'm quite keen on anyone with: - A desire to help bring the garden into order (weeding, clearing, dealing with plant growth) - CAD (computer aided drafting/design) experience in the short term, am particularly keen on finishing up an OpenSCAD model. and sticking to FOSS tools. - Patience and a desire to learn ... We live in an inner Hobartian suburb (3-4km from the CBD) on a 1/4 acre block in a 1930s weather board ex-farmhouse (now suburban dream house ;-). On top of work and raising a daughter and two sons, I'm trying to maintain a garden and house and can always use help. We are five: Bernd and Dani, with children Gypsy Anna (2003), Leon (2013) and Felix (2017). There are spare bikes for getting around, a few bus routes nearby and it's not a long walk into town (4km or 30-40mins) or the North Hobart cafe strip (1km or 10-20 mins). The bikes may need maintenance though, as it will depend on how long since last ridden by guests, so bike maintenance skills are a plus if you...

We have a small farm. We moved from the city to produce our own food. We have sheep. We are trying to grow new saplings and trees and establish a food forest. We are conscious people who are permaculture certified and registered in the organic farm network. We have a sustainability-based perspective. We would like to host volunteers who will help us with these issues. You will carry the experiences of being part of a real farm throughout your life. You will gain wonderful experiences on the farm with Selçuk, the master of everything, and Kadriye, the cook of delicious meals. To make bread, you need flour, yeast and an oven. A person who produces everything himself learns to live without needing anyone. This is a great freedom. We have a lot of wwoof experiences. Thank you for read our profile..

Hi, my name is Ken, It's great to meet you here today. Now I am retired from work so I lead a casual lifestyle. I love to travel and am interested in meeting new people and building friendships. I am a practicing Christian. Actually I have over (30) years experience teaching and hosting international students.

Helping you to find your way in Australia and you to enjoy your stay is important to me. Can you help me ? I'm looking for someone special. Someone with an outgoing and happy personality. Are you a communicator willing to share your experiences. 😊Everything about me is pretty much normal. I'm fit and active. For ongoing medical reasons, I really need "an experienced, confident, licensed driver" to drive for me. Yes, you must have a license to drive in Australia.

We have just begun hosting after a few years, as we could do with a bit of help again. We have a beautiful rural coastal property between Whakatane and Opotiki in the Bay of Plenty. We overlook the Waiotahe estuary and are a few minutes walk from Bryans Beach and Ohiwa Harbour - great kayaking, swimming, walking and fishing. We would like some help particularly on outside tasks such as cutting firewood, planting trees, painting and weedeating (strimming), as well as generally helping in the garden and around the house. To get to us, there are buses to both Opotiki and Whakatane and we can pick you up and drop you off there.

I run private English school for children aged between 10 and 19 years old in a small city in West Sumatra. My goal as the principal of the school is to provide youth from my region with the English skills required to communicate better in the modern world, and therefore provide them with better opportunities in their lives. I would like to welcome any fluent English speakers under the age of thirty to come assist my teachers in the classroom. You would help immensely by having simple conversations with the students and give them a real English speaking experience inside or outside the classroom. All the students are very welcoming and curious about my visitors and I am certain that you will have a great experience while interacting with them. You can expect answering all their curious questions, pose for pictures and be invited for lunches, snacks and dinners. Classes in my school run from 2pm to 6pm and mostly consist of two lessons/classrooms per day. I would also like to invite...

I`m a Certified Plumber and Drainlayer by trade but recently retired to work on property [ next stage of life!] I have hosted many people through Couchsurfing over the years Helpx is a new concept for me I purchased the property which is in need of a lot of work to tidy up, contouring/fencing/and planting trees etc. Most of the contouring work has been done.

French Chateau under renovation in quiet rural location, close to local village. We are looking for help from spring through to late autumn with building renovation work, decoration and services in the main building, landscaping of the gardens and woodland maintenance. The top floor of the chateau is finished and accomodation is in your own room on the top floor of the building (see photos for a picture of one of the helper rooms), which has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen and a cinema all finished and fully furnished. The ground and first floors are both partially completed. The ground floor kitchen, utility room, billiatds and dining room have been completed. Full board included, mainly eating outside in the summer when weather permits. Helpers, family and friends all eat together. Since there may be a number of family, friends and helpers at the house at any one time, unfortunately we are not able to accomodate vegans or people with special dietry requirements or food...

Hi folks, YES, we achieved a lot since returning from a 3+ year break in Feb 2022, beautifying our wonderful property, something we could not have done on our own. We are thankful for having had great assistance from amazing volunteers over the years, enriching our lives culturally and socially while progressing our beautification projects. We are a fit & energetic older couple with the following background: - Rene, 68yo, Swiss origin, Architect / Photographer / Traveller / Retired Resort Owner & Operator / Retired Tour Operator / Retired Restaurateur / Handyman (DIY Building) / Landscaper / Gardener . - Julie, 64yo, Philippine origin, Chef / Traveller / Retired Resort Owner & Operator / Retired Tour Operator / Retired Restaurateur. Our hosting, as well as workflow, is intermediate, as such, we may have breaks in between and preferences & requirements may change. With most of the earlier days' heavy lifting on structural projects done, our current projects are more along fine-tunin...

We are establishing an arborteum on our rural property near Wellington and are looking for some fit people to help us with planting small trees and making tracks. Our home is tucked away in the hills that cradle the Plimmerton village which is just over 3km along a country road tothe village and the seaside. The rail station into central Wellington is in the village. Surrounded by hills our property is secluded. A walking track just along the road leads to the village. Our extensive garden and bush is tranquil although early in the morning the native birds can make a lot of noise. Visiting rabbits and hares pop in occasionally to steal the odd blade of grass . Next door is a large working farm. It is a rare privilege to be so close to our capital city and yet have rural activities next door. If you don't like sheep, cows and dogs close by our place will not be for you. We, Helen and Ian, are in our late 60's. Proud parents of three grown children, their partners and eight grandc...

Aloha Kākou, Welcome to my home and farmstay. This is a Hawaiian owned and operated homesteading project. One of the very few- if not only- Native Hawaiian Cultural Exchange work-trade opportunity in Hāwai'i. Rooted in sustainability and indigenous values closely tied to the land, I believe that we as humanity have the responsibility, and utmost privilege, of being caretakers of this earth. It is my goal to eventually become fully self-sufficient, living simply and peacefully in harmony with da ‘Aina (the land). I am completely non-profit, and do not sell any produce. My present aims are to provide food for myself and any helpers who stay here, and to share the knowledge I have about the land: growing, planting and gardening, with others who share my goals to work towards self sufficiency and have a desire to learn more about living from the land. This is knowledge that I hope will then be taken forward into your own future homesteading endeavours. The beautiful māla (garden) is si...
