Workaway is a global platform that connects travellers, volunteers, and culture-seekers with hosts around the world offering homestays, house-sitting, community projects, environmental work, and many more types of opportunities.Â
HelpX (short for âHelp Exchangeâ) is an online platform that facilitates volunteer stays worldwide: hosts â farms, homestays, lodges, boats, hostels, etc. â list their need for helpers, and travellers or working-holiday makers can stay in exchange for a few hours of work per day.
Kiwi House Sitters is a New Zealand-based house-sitting and home-owner matching platform: it connects homeowners who need someone to look after their home (and often pets) while away â with trusted house-sitters across New Zealand.Â
WWOOF NZ is part of the broader organic-farming volunteer network WWOOF. It links volunteers with organic farms, lifestyle blocks, self-sufficient homesteads, and gardens in New Zealand.Â
