  • How can I make trip through Europe with the lowest coast possible and how can I get funds for the trip
    Workaway.info is a great place to start if you want to volunteer. Source: 5 months ago
  • South America Strategy ??
    Now im really fired up about going to South America, any spanish speaking country in South America. I have my TEFL cert and about 1000 usd saved I just made a workaway.info account and have been sending a bunch of messages. Source: 9 months ago
  • Workaway work exchange in Europe
    That Is a great idea. I have many volunteering experiences in many countries in the world. The websites that you can use are worldpackers.com and workaway.info There is a yearly membership but it is totally worth it. Source: 10 months ago
  • Are there any work/volunteer programs where your living expenses are paid for?
    Workaway.info - Workaway, private hosts and cultural exchange programs for all kinds of travelers, with jobs of everything from elder care to farming. Source: 10 months ago
  • Short-term job
    I'm Canadian and I used workaway.info to plan my near-future 6-month trip to Japan. I think it's about $50 USD for an annual membership. Some of the Japanese hosts pay minimum wage in their region or slightly higher in exchange for the working opportunities they provide. You have to specifically find the postings labelled 'paid position' if you're interested in that though. Source: 10 months ago
  • Currently miserable in life 27F
    Yo if you wanna travel check out Helpx.net Wwoof.net and workaway.info. Source: 11 months ago
  • Can i just leave and start over somewhere else? And be okay?
    Check out coolworks.com workaway.info for hosts / jobs with room and board or discounted lodging then you don't have to live in your car or pay rent. Usually the pay is utter shit but my only expense in life is gas + car insurance. Usually place do work-stay trades for ~20hours of labor per week then u can get a part-time job or work out a full-time paid schedule with your host. Source: 11 months ago
  • I want a very specific type of career, but have no idea how to get there or who to talk to
    Not sure about the job part, but if you want a way to see the world for cheap and maybe do some film projects on the way you could always try doing work trade. I used a site called workaway.info or you could go through a wwoof program. So you'd have to work x amount of hours a week helping with some job and then the rest of the time you're free to explore. I'd just suggest doing research into the hosts you stay... Source: 11 months ago
  • Applying to workaway projects in Colombia in May/June. What should I expect? Any comment welcome.
    So workaway is just a website, workaway.info. There is a charge of around $45 to use for a year. Good luck. Source: 12 months ago
  • I am thinking of leaving everything and everyone when I turn 18.
    I highly recommend checking out wwoof.net, helpx.net and workaway.info. They are websites where you can get volunteer gigs while traveling that will exchange free food and lodging for 3-4 hours of work per day. Usually the people that take part in these programs are pretty awesome. I always made friends and it's one of my favorite things to do while traveling. Some of the best experiences I've ever had where at... Source: 12 months ago
  • What to do when your room gets cancelled last minute and you have no idea what to do?
    Hostel and for long term: register at workaway.info (requires a minor membership fee to be able to use it) its a platform for private people and hostels and farms etc offering people free accomodation(sometimes also payment) in exchange for a few hours of daily work. Maybe you find a host that is spontaneous and takes you in. You'd also get to know locals that way. Source: 12 months ago
  • might be homeless after i graduate
    Im sorry about your situation... Maybe you can look into being an au pair or opportunities on something like workaway.info or https://wwoof.net/ . You work in exchange in accommodations, meals, just look into what the host is offering. It might be worth it just to get some footing and figure out what your next move is. Source: about 1 year ago
  • 24F, lots of interests but can't figure out a path that's profitable
    If you enjoy travel and still are exploring how to use your creative passions into a path, I'd look into workaway.info. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Looking for Camp Hosts
    Have you tried workaway.info yet bud? I'd volunteer but I'm a lil far from you in EU :P. Source: about 1 year ago
  • 21F graduating this May with what may be a useless Philanthropic Studies degree and no direction. I just know I want a nontraditional job and to (eventually) live abroad
    If you have enough money saved you can also check out http://workaway.info/ or worldpackers, which you live for free in exchange for labor in any part of the world. Source: about 1 year ago
  • How do I go about teaching English online on a volunteer basis?
    If you really want to volunteer, then your heart is in the right place - find a charity that helps refugees, and ask them if they offer online ESL lessons that you could volunteer to teach, or if they have any refugees who need help with their English who you could help on a volunteer basis. There are also a few Asian and Eastern European and South American kindergartens on workaway.info looking for volunteer ESL... Source: about 1 year ago
  • How to join an eco village/hippie commune?
    You can find opportunities like this on workaway.info. Tougher to find long-term stays, but they're out there. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Love minimalism, Especially when it comes to traveling the world
    I have travelled from country to country and usually find a Workaway.info place to stay a few months, and work on the side renovating houses and properties. 3 months working at one place will usually give me a boost which gives me another 6 months of travel. Travelling is actually quite cheap if you know what you are doing. Jumping around to more affordable countries, housesitting, workaway.info,... Source: about 1 year ago
  • I really don't care about a career or making a lot of money.
    Wwoof.net workaway.info coolworks.com< --- good resources to get started, once you're out there, you'll meet more nomad types and find better spots where u can make a little money too like cannabis trim co-ops and shit, but those kinda jobs u usually gotta know someone to get in. Source: about 1 year ago
  • What will be your occupation in the post-apocalypse?
    And there's a lot of hosts out there who take on people for workshares and stuff where room and board is given in trade for labor, all kinds of stuff out there too from farms to elder care to hostels or you can do work at camps / resorts but that's more like a typical 40hr/week paid job and they dock your pay or give you discounts on living accommodations. workaway.info or wwoof.net or coolworks.com are a good... Source: about 1 year ago
  • Housesit under 21?
    I don't think so because all users have to have their ID verified and at least in the US, undergo a background check. There are other sites you can try like WorkAway in the meantime (workaway.info - their minimum age is 18). Source: about 1 year ago
