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...

Greetings, We are a Guesthouse directly on the beach in Santa Marianita, 20 minutes south of Manta, with a lot of happy cats and dogs. The Name of our Guesthouse is "DonkeyDen". Santa Marianita beach is long, sandy and safe to walk day or night at your own discretion. This is not a party beach and is known for its kitesurfing. We are seeking mature, low-drama travellers, with good morals and drug-free volunteers who love animals, will help caretaking and maintain them, are ready to work with a smile and have fun meeting people from all over the world.

Hi everyone, In September, we'll need someone to house-sit and watch our dogs and cats . If you're interested in volunteering and potentially house sitting in September, send us a message! Sometimes, finding yourself lost brings you to this place. Our home gives the gift of getting alone. Allowing you to put yourself in decreased sensory input. To hear yourself again. Visitors in years gone by have found this time alone has simplified the heart and pathed the way for the journey ahead. Disconnect to reconnect and clear your mind in hectares of Spanish landscape. While we offer hosting from two weeks, we're ideal for those searching for an extended stay…a couple months sounds like a treat! We live a content and uncomplicated life, with an emphasis on zero waste. If you're up for the task and ready to take on the adventure, we would love to hear from you! We are particularly interested in candidates who specialize in beekeeping, gardening, animal care, massage or anyone who demons...

April through October (Summer) Gardening, yard work, helping around the B&B with all aspects of running a home-based business including serving breakfast, cleaning rooms - must be physically fit to do this.

Volunteers accepted between June to October only. We have created Thailand's first Earthship Inspired building in an organic orchard in the mountainous region in the north. I have 10 years experience building with rice husks (hulls) which is an excellent material for monsoon areas, and I am combined this knowledge with ideas from Earthships to create a truly cool building, dry and cold in heat and rain, and warm in winter, using natural and local materials, and recycled tires and bottles. This is a chance to learn and understand how a tropical earthship is made. Mostly gardening work is needed, plus some internet work explaining and publicising tropical earthships. Some maintenance may be needed on the Earthship. We can offer a wood and bamboo guesthouse to stay in, in an orchard, and we have a sun heated shower. There is a small kitchen, or you can use the kitchen in the earthship. You can see 2 photos of the guesthouse and 2 of the earthship. This area is very beautiful and peace...

Things have been moving along and I started having Volunteers again several months ago. I took a break due to a long healing process after a car accident where I was the passenger. It feels good to be making progress on my sailboat. There are plenty of volunteer opportunities; a lots to do at any skill level. Many projects take only 5-15 minutes to explain and easy for someone new to do a specific project well. Other projects require knowledgeable skills and other projects necessitate someone that has a fair amount of experience. Anyone that volunteers on my sailboat can join me sailing once my boat is back in the water, or come sailing with me at some point in the future! If this interest you, or you have questions, contact me through HelpX or call me direct via my mobile phone (also WhatsApp number). Below are a list of some of the projects we hope to complete by the summer 2025 Install 1) solar panels 2) a DUO GEN, which produces electricity by wind & while sailing by water!...

A room is available for your homestay. Because of the helps I would like to ask to you, those who have enough experience/knowledge of handling house holding chores and cooking are welcome. No problem if you cannot cook Japanese dishes. Vegetarian is welcome only from summer to autumn. It's easy to talk about next step of your homestay if how long from when, how you can help, what you want to do during homestay in addition to help works are written in your request. I, 66 years old male, not vaccinated for COVID-19, have a small private organic vegetable garden. I am happy if someone can help me to maintain vegetable garden and household chores including cooking. I also can enjoy helping my guest to learn Japanese language. We can visit at sightseeing places/aesthetic landscape when we have free time. At the same time, I`m interested to hear your stories about helpx and learn foreign languages as well as yoga and massage. My house has natural hot spring so that you are free to e...

A NATURAL SELF-SUSTAINED HEALING PLACE WHERE YOU CAN HARMONIOUSLY SEEK INNER WISDOM, FREEDOM AND PEACE First, let me explain the vision for our place. Our project is like a child that just started crawling, not a 20 year old mature project. Some years ago I try to get down its essence to a simple sentence: A NATURAL SELF-SUSTAINED HEALING PLACE. “NATURAL” is strongly related to organic farming but aims to do more than that - consider the whole place in a harmonious way, such as including forest, animals, water, energy, etc… and PEOPLE. That's why I like the DEMETER approach very much - Rudolph Steiner´s ideas about agriculture and environment seem very obvious to me and similar to some homeopathic concepts that I cherish, believe and follow. “SELF-SUSTAINED” does not mean totally independent - it is impossible to be completely independent from the outside world because we always need resources we cannot produce on the spot - we are all interdependent. But we can try to optimize the ...

Please post photo of yourselves. It is a lovely home atmosphere. Own room, double bed and couch. I have a large standard male black poodle who loves everyone. You must love dogs, now a new puppy, small version of the bigger one. So two dogs. I’m a mom again… Damn! Just need those who can handle normal life! Can you handle humour, and puppy pandemonium? Then please come and love here! I love to cook, and if you love cooking, sharing experience and recipes, even better. The work here is garden maintenance, pruning and lawn mowing, weeding, and some cleaning in the home. Please use your own initiative! If you see leaves, sweep them up. If the bench is dirty wipe it. If there are dishes, rinse and put in the dishwasher. That type of thing. We would like you to feel like we’re a family. We are actually two separate people. Separate living in one big home. Good friends only. If you have a car, there is off street safe parking for you. We eat all foods. But if you ...

Edit: Due to cancellations volunteers are urgently needed from October 24th to November 30th, 2024! Valid driving license , if possible! My husband and I are Buddhist priests, running a 450 year old Pure Land Buddhist temple in the mountains of Kyushu. My husband is the 17th generation priest of our family temple. We are busy with the temple and our family and need help with gardening, cleaning, cooking, laundry and lots lots more. We have a luxury Lodge for overnight stays and need help with bed making and cleaning. We also want the helper to walk our 2 dogs , who are big, very enthusiastic but are complete softies. Also, our cats (3) like to hang out in the helpers area, so you need to like cats and dogs. We now also have three toddler grandchildren who love to interact with the volunteers. We give preference to helpers who have a valid International or Japanese driving license. We run a hectic household so be prepared for more chaos than tranquility. We are NOT a Zen temple...

We have a large top story house that our guest share with us for general living while providing newly renovated twin airconditioned container accomadation next to the main house so you can h...

We are available 20 March to around April 10th. Please note: We do not have a farm & are not able to sign the paperwork for working holiday visas. As we are inviting you into our home, some information about you is ideal, please write a profile. We need helpers to have good enough English skills for communication. We are a couple, living in our 10 year old, sustainably built, solar powered home, with glorious views over Byron Bay & north up the coast to Queensland. Looking for a skilled solo traveller (or occasionally a couple or 1-2 people traveling together). Especially keen for permaculture/ organic/ biodynamic input. It is ideal if you have your own transport, as there is a very limited bus service. However we have had helpers stay without transport. Byron Bay 10 mins, Bangalow 5 mins, Ballina 30 mins, Gold Coast airport 45 mins. The work: re-oiling the timber of the house, brush-cutting, mulching, planting, gardening, weeding, landscaping, carpentry, window cleaning & som...

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 Helpers, I am a conservationist and a passionate native plant gardener. I also grow most of my own vegetables. I offer self-contained accommodation in a cosy cottage [with heating] in exchange for a couple of hours of work a day. The work might be in the garden, chain sawing, painting, brush-cutting, weeding or mulching plants. We would, of course, avoid inclement weather. Helpers must be trustworthy and happy to work independently at times. Must also be non smoker. It might be possible to negotiate a longer stay for a small rent + help; this might be useful if you have an 88 day job in the area. [dairy, vineyards, golf, hospitality] Bridport is a small coastal town, which becomes popular as the weather warms up. It has plenty of eating places, two pubs, a distillery, two supermarkets, beautiful scenery, golf courses, a daily bus service to Launceston and heaps of friendly people. My place is 1.5km from the town centre. There are many natural places to visit close by.

We live on the Baltic Sea cost. 4 hours by car from Berlin. I can host October-April Hello, I would like to host native speakers of English. I am looking for helpers who can take over my English classes while they are at my place so my students can talk to a native speaker. I do not expect you to teach grammar unless you really want to try your luck. Hours vary from day to day. This year's timetable usually starts with lunch at my place at about 2:00 pm and then you will have to teach 3-4 hours till the evening meal so there will be plenty of time for you to enjoy the city and the area in the mornings. Your English conversation classes will consist of two or three students. There will be no need to change the location. The students come to your place which is on the same floor as my flat so you will be staying at a totally independent studio with a toilet, shower and kitchenette. I will provide the teaching aids. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to drop me a line. ...

Hi. I am Frasse, my wife Marie. We have 2 boys born 07 and 04 they both understand English. I have 30-ish adult Siberian husky's. I'm working with the dogs full time during winter. The dogs are my family, They all have insurance and they all are my pets and are very socialized. We live in a small village called Orsa in Sweden. The dogs are very friendly, loves to cuddle, and we live in a fantastic area of hiking, fishing all year round, mountains, untouchable places, silence and just so good for our soul to live here. You need to like the nature to fully like it here over a longer time. It's not at all romantic working with sled dogs it's a full-time job. Picking up dog pop cleaning kennels feeding them when winter is biting your noose. When it's raining wet snow and you feel could to the bone the work needs to be done anyway. In December if we have snow enough I start drive tourists. Or when we have enough to start safely. I am looking for a person that can stay for a longer ti...

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...

Hi everyone, In September, we'll need someone to house-sit and watch our dogs and cats . If you're interested in volunteering and potentially house sitting in September, send us a message! Sometimes, finding yourself lost brings you to this place. Our home gives the gift of getting alone. Allowing you to put yourself in decreased sensory input. To hear yourself again. Visitors in years gone by have found this time alone has simplified the heart and pathed the way for the journey ahead. Disconnect to reconnect and clear your mind in hectares of Spanish landscape. While we offer hosting from two weeks, we're ideal for those searching for an extended stay…a couple months sounds like a treat! We live a content and uncomplicated life, with an emphasis on zero waste. If you're up for the task and ready to take on the adventure, we would love to hear from you! We are particularly interested in candidates who specialize in beekeeping, gardening, animal care, massage or anyone who demons...

Volunteers accepted between June to October only. We have created Thailand's first Earthship Inspired building in an organic orchard in the mountainous region in the north. I have 10 years experience building with rice husks (hulls) which is an excellent material for monsoon areas, and I am combined this knowledge with ideas from Earthships to create a truly cool building, dry and cold in heat and rain, and warm in winter, using natural and local materials, and recycled tires and bottles. This is a chance to learn and understand how a tropical earthship is made. Mostly gardening work is needed, plus some internet work explaining and publicising tropical earthships. Some maintenance may be needed on the Earthship. We can offer a wood and bamboo guesthouse to stay in, in an orchard, and we have a sun heated shower. There is a small kitchen, or you can use the kitchen in the earthship. You can see 2 photos of the guesthouse and 2 of the earthship. This area is very beautiful and peace...

++currently looking for a volunteer to help out on the bar and with the horses during the summer months .... We are a family that have a bar and renting horses business. As i am currently living outside of Spain and is high season we do need extra hands. We do need help with small things in the bar, cleaning, garden, paint...also you can learn about horses, we got 14 and a colt :) Depends on the season and the weather the works you can do to help us can vary. I do speak English and Spanish but my parents and brother only Spanish, so is a very good opportunity to learn Spanish too :) , Our house is next to a small town ,10min walking where there is a public pool or any shop you may need, doctor...although there is a train right across the road that can take you to the main city, Leon which is only 25km away. Dont hesitate in contact me and i will inform you about any details you may need

Things have been moving along and I started having Volunteers again several months ago. I took a break due to a long healing process after a car accident where I was the passenger. It feels good to be making progress on my sailboat. There are plenty of volunteer opportunities; a lots to do at any skill level. Many projects take only 5-15 minutes to explain and easy for someone new to do a specific project well. Other projects require knowledgeable skills and other projects necessitate someone that has a fair amount of experience. Anyone that volunteers on my sailboat can join me sailing once my boat is back in the water, or come sailing with me at some point in the future! If this interest you, or you have questions, contact me through HelpX or call me direct via my mobile phone (also WhatsApp number). Below are a list of some of the projects we hope to complete by the summer 2025 Install 1) solar panels 2) a DUO GEN, which produces electricity by wind & while sailing by water!...

A room is available for your homestay. Because of the helps I would like to ask to you, those who have enough experience/knowledge of handling house holding chores and cooking are welcome. No problem if you cannot cook Japanese dishes. Vegetarian is welcome only from summer to autumn. It's easy to talk about next step of your homestay if how long from when, how you can help, what you want to do during homestay in addition to help works are written in your request. I, 66 years old male, not vaccinated for COVID-19, have a small private organic vegetable garden. I am happy if someone can help me to maintain vegetable garden and household chores including cooking. I also can enjoy helping my guest to learn Japanese language. We can visit at sightseeing places/aesthetic landscape when we have free time. At the same time, I`m interested to hear your stories about helpx and learn foreign languages as well as yoga and massage. My house has natural hot spring so that you are free to e...

A NATURAL SELF-SUSTAINED HEALING PLACE WHERE YOU CAN HARMONIOUSLY SEEK INNER WISDOM, FREEDOM AND PEACE First, let me explain the vision for our place. Our project is like a child that just started crawling, not a 20 year old mature project. Some years ago I try to get down its essence to a simple sentence: A NATURAL SELF-SUSTAINED HEALING PLACE. “NATURAL” is strongly related to organic farming but aims to do more than that - consider the whole place in a harmonious way, such as including forest, animals, water, energy, etc… and PEOPLE. That's why I like the DEMETER approach very much - Rudolph Steiner´s ideas about agriculture and environment seem very obvious to me and similar to some homeopathic concepts that I cherish, believe and follow. “SELF-SUSTAINED” does not mean totally independent - it is impossible to be completely independent from the outside world because we always need resources we cannot produce on the spot - we are all interdependent. But we can try to optimize the ...

Please post photo of yourselves. It is a lovely home atmosphere. Own room, double bed and couch. I have a large standard male black poodle who loves everyone. You must love dogs, now a new puppy, small version of the bigger one. So two dogs. I’m a mom again… Damn! Just need those who can handle normal life! Can you handle humour, and puppy pandemonium? Then please come and love here! I love to cook, and if you love cooking, sharing experience and recipes, even better. The work here is garden maintenance, pruning and lawn mowing, weeding, and some cleaning in the home. Please use your own initiative! If you see leaves, sweep them up. If the bench is dirty wipe it. If there are dishes, rinse and put in the dishwasher. That type of thing. We would like you to feel like we’re a family. We are actually two separate people. Separate living in one big home. Good friends only. If you have a car, there is off street safe parking for you. We eat all foods. But if you ...

Edit: Due to cancellations volunteers are urgently needed from October 24th to November 30th, 2024! Valid driving license , if possible! My husband and I are Buddhist priests, running a 450 year old Pure Land Buddhist temple in the mountains of Kyushu. My husband is the 17th generation priest of our family temple. We are busy with the temple and our family and need help with gardening, cleaning, cooking, laundry and lots lots more. We have a luxury Lodge for overnight stays and need help with bed making and cleaning. We also want the helper to walk our 2 dogs , who are big, very enthusiastic but are complete softies. Also, our cats (3) like to hang out in the helpers area, so you need to like cats and dogs. We now also have three toddler grandchildren who love to interact with the volunteers. We give preference to helpers who have a valid International or Japanese driving license. We run a hectic household so be prepared for more chaos than tranquility. We are NOT a Zen temple...

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 Helpers, I am a conservationist and a passionate native plant gardener. I also grow most of my own vegetables. I offer self-contained accommodation in a cosy cottage [with heating] in exchange for a couple of hours of work a day. The work might be in the garden, chain sawing, painting, brush-cutting, weeding or mulching plants. We would, of course, avoid inclement weather. Helpers must be trustworthy and happy to work independently at times. Must also be non smoker. It might be possible to negotiate a longer stay for a small rent + help; this might be useful if you have an 88 day job in the area. [dairy, vineyards, golf, hospitality] Bridport is a small coastal town, which becomes popular as the weather warms up. It has plenty of eating places, two pubs, a distillery, two supermarkets, beautiful scenery, golf courses, a daily bus service to Launceston and heaps of friendly people. My place is 1.5km from the town centre. There are many natural places to visit close by.

I'm Thanasis, a 55 years old greek man living in the South of the Peloponnes. I'm a farmer, with oranges trees and some olive trees. I also have a shop, mainly selling coffee that I roast on site. I need help all the year to maintain the big farm (orange and olive harvest, trees pruning, pick-up fallen oranges, and so on..) If you come, you will have your own room (1 for a couple or separate), and access to all the rest of the house (kitchen, bathroom...). I like to share the meal, and provide food if you want to cook. You also can use WI-FI connection. You could enjoy the life between the farm and the city of Skala Lakonia, wich offer a lot of coffee shop, restaurants, and any kind of stores. Minimum stay is 2 weeks, to allow time to learn about life on the farm. I need help for a maximum of 5 hours per day, 5 days per week, depending on the weather. I really like to meet new people and introduce them to Greece history. I practice karaté (three times per week) and would be happy t...

We live on the Baltic Sea cost. 4 hours by car from Berlin. I can host October-April Hello, I would like to host native speakers of English. I am looking for helpers who can take over my English classes while they are at my place so my students can talk to a native speaker. I do not expect you to teach grammar unless you really want to try your luck. Hours vary from day to day. This year's timetable usually starts with lunch at my place at about 2:00 pm and then you will have to teach 3-4 hours till the evening meal so there will be plenty of time for you to enjoy the city and the area in the mornings. Your English conversation classes will consist of two or three students. There will be no need to change the location. The students come to your place which is on the same floor as my flat so you will be staying at a totally independent studio with a toilet, shower and kitchenette. I will provide the teaching aids. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to drop me a line. ...

Hi. I am Frasse, my wife Marie. We have 2 boys born 07 and 04 they both understand English. I have 30-ish adult Siberian husky's. I'm working with the dogs full time during winter. The dogs are my family, They all have insurance and they all are my pets and are very socialized. We live in a small village called Orsa in Sweden. The dogs are very friendly, loves to cuddle, and we live in a fantastic area of hiking, fishing all year round, mountains, untouchable places, silence and just so good for our soul to live here. You need to like the nature to fully like it here over a longer time. It's not at all romantic working with sled dogs it's a full-time job. Picking up dog pop cleaning kennels feeding them when winter is biting your noose. When it's raining wet snow and you feel could to the bone the work needs to be done anyway. In December if we have snow enough I start drive tourists. Or when we have enough to start safely. I am looking for a person that can stay for a longer ti...

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.
