One of the more eclectic stays I've had over the past 4 months. the boat is cozy and located in a very nice part of London. Easy access to mass transit and local attractions. Ben is a great guy and provides an eclectic lifestyle and fun work environment. I was able to meet some of the locals in the area and spent my free time traveling all around London.

It was a truly amazing and pleasant experience. Ben is a great guy to learn/ be around, easy going over all. Very thoughtful and witty , enjoyed our conversations together. Beautiful port area with a great view of downtown London. Highly recommended and will definitely do it again! Thanks so Ben! It's been an honor.

A experiência com o Ben foi INCRÍVEL! O projeto é super bacana, o barco fica super bem localizado e o Ben é um ser humano fora de série. Definitivamente fiz um amigo pra vida. Agradeço super pela oportunidade e recomendo a todos da Worldpackers :)

It was an eclectic, fun, sometimes hectic and challenging and sometimes very rewarding experience. As a person looking for design/architecture volunteering opportunities, I enjoyed seeing the timber structure coming together, collaborating with others and working in the open air. The schedule and assigned tasks were frequently unclear and not really thought through and/or kept changing, which required a certain amount of patience, flexibility and efforts at clear communication. We didn't eat meals together- me and the other volunteers bought our own food and had a working kitchen to cook in.

Ben es buena persona y el trabajo fue muy divertido. Pero tengo que hablar también que las condiciones del barco no estaban para nada buenas. Muy sucio y desordenado. Ademas el baño estuvo roto las dos semanas que estuve por lo que debíamos ir a uno afuera con el frío y la lluvia de Londres.. Tampoco tenía agua caliente.. No hay desayuno ni almuerzo ni cena .. solo 20e q para el costo de Londres no alcanza para mucho. Lo hablé con él y dijo que se comprometía a solucionarlo. Espero que así sea porque es un proyecto hermoso.

It's a different experience, living on a boat is something unique, zero privacy, the bed is literally in the kitchen, in some situations you have to work more hours during the day, if you don't have a problem with this, you'll be fine. I hardly shared with Ben but he's a very kind person, sometimes he invites you to dinner with his friends on the other boats.

Es un proyecto que requiere mucho compromiso, limpieza y paciencia, tienes q estar dispuesto a colaborar en todo tipo de labores, sin embargo, te da la oportunidad de vivir en Londres y esta muy bien conectada con bus al centro por bus (188) o el (1) asi como tambien dos estaciones de metro muy cercanas, canada waters y surrey quays. Llevar ropa contra el frio es fundamental! Si eres una persona responsable lo vas a disfrutar de seguro!

Ben is a good guy but he doesn't have the structure to receive volunteers. I was amazed about going to have a experience in a boat but wasn't not even close to what I imagined. No toilet, no shower, no place to laundry properly to runaway the weather of London and no bike to use. If those things were better…. Probably would be a good experience… the place needs to be more welcoming… clean, organize… so the volunteer can work properly! Everything is a lesson… so actually I am also grateful even leaving earlier.
