Helpx/WWOOF/Workaway 1st Timer Advice! Volunteer around the world!
We've been volunteering all over Europe using helpx, workaway and WWOOF and interviewing our fellow helpers and hosts along the way. This video has been 9 months in the making. Hope this video helps/encourages those thinking about diving into the work exchange world. Luke & Elizabeth are backpacking the world on less than $20/day, couchsurfing, wwoofing, camping and volunteering for full immersion and affordability. +subscribe for weekly episodes: www.youtube.com/hatchbackertv Travel volunteer/work exchange sites: http://www.helpx.net http://www.workaway.info http://www.wwoof.net http://www.yogatrade.com Looking for new music we can rightfully use!

Hi! I would like to find out more about Patricia, the last host in the video, what what her volunteer work opportunity is about. could you direct me to where exactly I'd be able to find information about this particular opportunity and others similar to it?

Fabulous video!

Thanks for the video! It's very nice & down to earth as I suppose is approriate for the topic.I'm tempted to click the thumb down just to make it slightly imperfect to be more realistic ;-P

This was super useful, thanks so much!
Looking into doing this myself in the spring, should make for even more interesting vlogging. Its great to see others experiences and opinions on it though, thanks for sharing. -
Is money needed for this? I understand you are provided room and food in exchange for work, but sometimes you need cash on you for unexpected reasons. Has anyone ever found themselves in a situation were you had to use cash that you had brought with you. Or are there ways to work extra hours in exchange for small amounts of cash or extra benefits.
Asking because I am a broke college student. -
this is the first time I don't see any dislikes in a video , so i think heaters don't like volunteering hh

This video is so helpful! thanks so much for your hard work I am planning to go on an adventure like this later this year :)

agreed, great tips. The one I definitely agree with is "don't have expectations". I've had the best workaway experiences and my expectations were low so I was never disappointed!

- Thanks for uploading this video. I feel really happy. I'm going to join Workaway.info. My friend and I are thinking in traveling around and work as a volunteers. Thank you guys !! This video has a lot of inspiration :') <3

Thank you so much for this. It really clears up some of my nerves! I can't wait to set off on my travels now :D

thanks for this video. I just joined Workaway,Helpex and WWOOF UK andcam starting my first position next week. It's a little more complicated because I am bringing my dog along. (I couldn't bear to leave her behind) and also because I'm a bit older than most volunteers, but better late than never!

Fantastic video guys! We're just digging in to the world of Workaway (just signed up!) and this is crazy helpful. We've signed up with Workway, but we see that you do Helpx as well? Should we do both to cast a wider net or has one site been more helpful to you? Thanks much!
