Woofing, an alternative way to finance a trip abroad while working

  • 2 years ago
Accommodation is probably the most expensive part of a trip abroad.
Not having to bear the cost of accommodation or food allows you to save to make important savings!
Among the possibilities, the woofing allows to finance your trip while working.
The concept: you are provided with food and lodging in the homes of local people in exchange for carrying out assignments on an organic farm.
What are the tasks to be done?
This differs from farm to farm.
You may be in charge of:
- Harvesting of crops,
- Planting,
- Handicrafts,
- Cooking,
- To take care of animals...
In short, you will only have to pay for transportation and leisure expenses.
The woofing will allow you to live in the most total immersion since you will be close to the locals.
Typically, the daily work time is between 3 to 6 hours over 5 to 6 days.
The rest of the time, you can go about your business.
This "alternative tourism" solution is made possible by the worldwide network of organic farms.
No experience is required: only motivation is decisive.
Outside the European Union, you will need your passport and depending on the destination, a visa.
