Thank you for this comment man, means a lot. Yeah looking back it was a bit risky of me having the intro fast moving and messy, but I appreciate you staying and watching!

Yes Nick it was inspiring ☺

The link in the description box regarding your experience with your Nepalese host doesn't work :( I would really like to hear the story

@@gg_yam I apologise for that Gina, I've taken down my website for the time being and will get something up and running again, hopefully soon.

I am 55 years old and thinking if anyone wants to host me. Lol.

@@DanandMattea Can you tell the story here? Kind of frustrating to include it in the video and then leave your viewers hanging for YEARS.

It definitely is! Some of my most favourite experiences have been from teaching English! :D

Yeowwwwww!! Thank you for this awesome comment! I appreciate it, please do keep me posted with how you go. All the best :D

damn bro ik it’s been 2 years since you posted this comment. I hope the best for u! I’m legit in the same boat as u, and i’m trying to get out of this “system” and do what I want in life. I appreciate u man.

Woah Katie, I genuinely appreciate that. Thank you very much!

Camile! Woah, thank you very much; that was my intention all along hey. I don't see much value in making people jealous, rather inspiring each other to get out into the world and the comfort zone. :) Good luck in Cyprus, have fun and do what you can to maximise your experiences there!

Woah Rida! Thank you for your words man, I genuinely appreciate it :) Oh as would I! Would love to meet you!

Woah! Thank you very much :)

Thank you Karen :) As am I, a very insightful experience for me. Let me know how your Workaway adventure goes!

Yeowwwww!!! You got this! :)

Workaway changed my life! You're going to have such an amazing time. Where are you going to be volunteering?

Yeowwww! Happy to help Lily! Best of luck out there, keep me posted with how your adventure goes!

Where did you volunteer ?? I consider taking a gap year to do travel 🏹🔸@@WorkForAvocados

Yeow! Best of luck with your travels, I hope you get a lot out of it :)

jbaby007 where you heading too

I just heard about this yesterday

Suraj! Thank you good sir. Have fun with the adventure you choose to embark on :)

Covid-19 happened. 😢

How did it go?

A man with a plan! Best of luck with your future adventures man. And couldn't agree more, back in the day we would have to create our own contacts with people living across the world. Thats why I'm very grateful for a website like Workaway!

Yeah man, sometimes I wonder how many opportunities we have now and we still complaining...

Thank you for watching Lena :)

Thank you very much for watching, I appreciate the feedback! Let me know how you go :)

Do you need a work visa?

How was it?

@@monicaant.1422 no!

@@indeed4xd it was great! I'm actually in my third workaway experience at the moment!! It only gets better and better!

@@leticiasanoliv is it still worth it?

Well that just made my day! Thank you for telling me this. Let me know how you go!!

Thank you for watching Sohail! Let me know how you go :)

Do visit Pakistan.

Yeah sure once this pandemic come to an end i have plan to travel.😊

Thank you for watching, best of luck with your adventure :)

Awesome bro! Let me know how you go, would love to hear about your adventure. Keep living deliberately I think with the social media side of things, enjoy being there :)

Tim Armstrong how does the travel work for you did they pay for you to travel or did you have to pay upfront

@@brionnagaines9815 I just saw this. You must pay all your own travel expenses.

Hey Lauren, I completely understand. It is scary, but it's okay. It's okay to be scared. Honestly, I'm constantly scared when I go to a new Workaway or new country. Something I learned is what are you going to do about it? Give in to being scared and find excuses not to go, or conquer it? Just some practical advice, search for Workaways that have 100% rating and positive reviews. Just so you can get the feel for it and you know you'll be in a safe place. I've had arguments with my parents, my friends didn't understand what I was/am doing. But it's okay, it's my life and I'm doing what I want to do. I've had people apologise to me because they ended up seeing how happy and fulfilled I was. You got this Lauren :)

Couldn't agree more Gabrielle! I had a chat with Stephen about a year ago and was in awe at how much we had in common. I hope you guys are well!

So amazing Dan, he's in Melbourne now with Michael, I hope he finds his passion there. Katrina is also shifting over in Feb to do a year at Bible college over there. She's been in Perth the last two years so thought she'd finish her last year in Melbourne. If she settles there, we maybe looking at moving too. She'd love to do 3-6 months in the South of France... we'll see. Looks like it's just her and I for Christmas as Mal is away working. So it will be very quiet. Enjoy yours, I hear that Vegetarian is on the menu. Well done on convincing your mum to do that. Love your spirit.

Yeow! Have a good time Alfie, all the best with the adventure :)

Failing Forward thank you!!

Do it! Let me know how you go :D

Do it my man! Let me know how you go bro :)

Thank you Andrea I very much appreciate it! If your son happens to be in Bunbury (2 hours south of Perth) I would love to catch up with him over coffee! I can imagine its always a little worrying as a mother, I've definitely given my mum a few scares :')

Thank you my man!

Thanks Jakub! Yeowwwww! Do it! Let me know how you go with it all :)

Jakub Michalak me too let do it

Thank you very much! Enjoy the unpredictable ride :D

No worries! Thank you for watching, good luck on your journey. Let me know how you go!

Workaway it's a theatre maded from freemasonry to keep control on victims who are trying to escape human traffiking as prostitution or people who have to die because of cheating against brotherhood as speak with police against members of organisations. Mostly hosts are freemasons. In this way the "victims" will be followed and poisoned until can't keep or get a job because colleagues, customers or even on the street people are putting Chemical powders on the victim to make him breathe the gas released from the chemicals and skin absorption and food where possible. So the victim will escape, probably with no direction. But in the past he have been manipulate to research about workaway and the platform have been very good promoted. So the victim will remember that and will use this system to get help (food and accommodation) but really soon he will realise that the house is completely poisoned, that meals are served in wird ways and others workawayers if some, Will eat much as a kid and will not have showers but will go alone "for a walk" even under snowing nights and will came back after 40 minutes fresh as who just got a shower and with perfect hair. Then the victims will be leaved alone in the house and will listen that every body is in a hidden room underground having fun. The victim will not find the hidden door for the underground apartment. Also, the bedroom for victims have the gas tube connected to be activated only when victims are in the room and the bed is also full of poison so also the wash machine where victims wash them poisoned clothes and bed sheets. The countries without hosts are not without mafia but are legislations to that community mindset doesn't match with the workaway system, so is forbiden, as in Cuba, North Korea, Russia, but every country is collaborative each other in different ways. So.. Do your mind.

Do it. I'm 19 and have been looking for something like this for awhile. I'm totally doing this too

Hey Jo & Ash! Just checked out your channel, I subbed yous as well. Looking forward to watching your adventures unfold! Thank you for stopping by guys :D

Thank you, I appreciate that. It's all learning at the end of the day.

Least I could do man! Thank you for watching :)

I appreciate that Yelena!

Smart move Stacy! Perfect idea on when to travel! Yeowwww! Down sizing is a scary but insightful part of the journey, good luck with it, you really do surprise yourself, when you realise on what you really don't need. Thank you for watching, good luck with your journey and let me know how you go! :)

How much are tickets

Not a problem Oscar, all the best man!

No worries, thank you for watching :) Enjoy the adventure!

so do I , where do you want to go?

Thank you for watching man!

Thank you for watching man!

Thank you Fredrik, I appreciate that man :)

Thank you for watching Sopha, have a good day :)

My pleasure man, thank you for watching :)

@@DanandMattea Where are you at now?

Sorry for the late response Teri! Yes, I've met quite a few 'more life experience' volunteers. I met this one gentleman who was around 65. Age is just a number, keep doing what you're doing :)

Thank you for watching man! :)

You got it!

Thank you for watching Eleanor :)

Hey man, great questions! As far as volunteering in Europe you should get three months on a tourist visa (depending on your passport). Also if you're very time rich and have no where to be, your hosts can fix you up a longer term visa if you're happy there. When I did Workaway in the US, I just told them I was seeing family friends because you need an actual volunteering visa. So I just got away with a business visa... shhh, don't tell them. ;) Hahaha! Your last question, I've learnt time and time again. When I was started, I planned out at least 4 or 5 months in advance and it was all ready to go. But when I met other volunteers, made friends, stayed in different Workaway projects longer, I found myself cancelling my future Workaway hosts. I always tried to give them at least a weeks notice that I wouldn't be arriving due to my travel plans changing and thats life hey. I've learnt that planning one or two Workaways in advance is more than enough. Thank you bro! Good luck with your travels :D

Hey Sofia! Thank you, I appreciate that. :) Yes! Yes! I would highly recommend it, I left and did my first Workaway after a month of being 18. I couldn’t be happier doing it as an 18 year old, you’ll love it! Let me know how you go :)

I hope the workaway was awesome

Fantastic questions! Yes having a return flight can be difficult. I find that a lot of the time, I'll book a one way ticket, so I have no time restriction, and when I'm in that Workaway, I'll begin to plan a head. And sometimes if I have to leave for a new country, I would return to the other Workaway a few weeks later. It's just trial and error I guess. I have had a couple of times where I haven't gotten on the plane, but thats not good practise because I lose that money :') Yes! For sure, it can be difficult. I guess the only way would be to let the host know the rough dates, and let them know that you're hitch hiking and the exact arrival date is out of your control. Have a great day!

You'd be more than okay travelling solo, trust your gut and don't put yourself in a position where you can be taken advantage of. I've met loads of female & male solo travellers who have found the whole experiences being incredibly empowering :) x

Thank you man!

Hey Lilianna, yeah I would normally have a little money aside for weekend activities and the transition to the next Workaway. But you definitely don't need much!

Follow your heart.

Hahaha I appreciate that Xi :') No worries, thank you for watching!

I've unfortunately taken down my website and will be putting something up again in the near future. Sorry about that, but thank you for letting me know. I'll message back once the story is online somewhere again :)

Missed the boat? Dude you still have like 60 years (on average) ahead of you. So much time to go out and do whatever it is you want to do!

@@emerconghaile4902 Thank you! Its encouraging to hear :) I've made a workaway account since. Unfortunately, havent been able to lock plans down yet but I am trying!

Hey Joshua, if you don't have any workaways coming, you can contact the Workaway staff and they would be able to help you online :)

Thank you for asking this question, this is one of my favourite ones! Yes! I met this awesome 64 year old from New Zealand who I was volunteering with in Germany. He was an incredible and humbling human. It is very do-able and I hope that I can be more like him :) Do it! Jump in! Let me know how you go!

@@DanandMattea Thank you for the encouraging words. Yes I will tell you..plus I am a lady..that would be awesome isn't it? A senior lady travelling to do volunteer work..work be a great way for me to semi retire. Thank you again..

Hey Imani, no that shouldn't be the case. It should be an annual fee of US $42 for the year. It's pretty cheap I think for the access of connections you get. Let me know if that helps in anyway

Thank you very much for watching! I don't think so? You do need to be 18 + from memory but all that info would be on the Workaway FAQ page :)

Grazie bella! :') You were definitely the reason why I struggled with Workaway ;)

Awesome Mari! I use a Cannon 60D but I don't utilise its full features, I bought it for a real good deal. Any DSLR that is point and shoot is fine. I think it's the story that people/viewer care more about. :)

Thank you bro, I so appreciate it. Anywhere and everywhere bro, every place is so different :)

Failing Forward that’s awesome as I think it’s the best way to travel I love inspiring others to be them selfs and working with diverse cultures it’s amazing, this can give you a whole different perspective on the world. And I can’t wait too set up a base where I can interact with many people and learn so much.

I'm saving and planning my workaway journey now, and was wondering as well around how much money do you usually take for a certain amount of time? Like how much would you say you expend montly?
