I already sent this organisation a message that my host cancelled 5 days before my proposed visit, when I was already in Portugal. I don't blame the host because emergencies can happen but I do blame this organisation for not replying to my urgent request for a new placement. I waisted many hours trying to get another placement from Worldpacking hosts but to no avail. My Woofing host amd fellow woofers helped me get another placement but all the way in Lagos when I had planned to say near Faro. A very bad and shaky start to my Worldpacking "adventure".

This was my second experience at the home, and once again it was amazing. Lynette welcomed me like a member of the family, including one of the activities we did was drive to visit her daughter and her adorable grandson Corey. We also did repairs to the gazebo and did lots of activities in the garden, which is now ready for tea parties in the coming months. We also took care of the dogs Nina and Lucy. Lynette was great company, sharing her life experience and her contagious energy, a woman full of life and incredible disposition. I am already looking forward to our next meetings. ❤️❤️❤️

I enjoyed my experience at the home- there were a few hick up's at the start with the rain came power cut and having to turn the water tap on and off each time you wanted to use the water- but some of these things couldn't be helped. Lynette made me feel welcome and although I came at a time that was very busy for her- allowed me to stay another week. I enjoyed being in her garden, learning about her art- but most importantly listening to her stories and sharing life experiences- the deep conversations we had will stay with me and nourish my soul. She was a very kind and generous host :)

I want to express my deepest gratitude and admiration for Worldpacker's amazing Host, Lynette, at the home! She welcomes Volunteers with so much love and warmth, making you feel at home from day one. She cooks absolutely delicious meals for the volunteers and shows incredible patience, even if your English isn't perfect—like mine! Lynette also gives you simple and manageable tasks that you'll feel confident completing. Her home is charming&cozy, and I experienced comfort and privacy. It was truly an honor to learn about someone who is a remarkable example of female empowerment. Tks a lot🙏

My experience at the home was amazing. Lynete is a great hostess, a strong and experienced woman with a big heart, I found a British mother in Portugal. She is a complete Artist, she paints, writes and sings. We had a lot of fun while doing the activities together. I had the pleasure of meeting your friends Linda, Helena and Wally, and especially the couple Paul and Maggie, two fantastic people, polite and fun, we had a great time touring the area. I hope I can come back soon to meet my new friends in the Algarve Thank you very much for everything Lynette.

A Lynette é uma pessoa muito amável. Inclusiva. Apresentou-me seus queridos amigos, que são pessoas incríveis também. Passei meu aniversário na companhia deles e os três fizeram o meu dias mais feliz. Sou grata por isso. Não me esquecerei. Minha única observação, e acredito que isso ela consiga ajustar, é que o colchão da cama é muito ruim, acordava com o corpo muito doído. Uma por conta do trabalho duro do dia anterior, outra porque não consegui descansar o corpo.Também o cobertor estava sujo, com cheiro ruim. A sorte é que tenho os meus. No geral, muito feliz com minha 1ª experiência. Recom
