Amazing Opportunity in Victoria
My home is a 10 minute walk from downtown in a gorgeous area plus I have bikes. Victoria is one of the top ten cities in the world to visit and my place is located in the best neighbourhood in the city, I have guests from all over the world and we do daily cleans or what I call turnovers. Easy work with a maximum of 5 hours per day. I provide sleeping accommodations in a Westfalia campervan and basic food supplies. I have worked with workaways for over 9 years and everyone has loved it here. I do have two Havanese pups and a number of kitties so you must love animals. I do not smoke or drink and prefer people that have a healthy lifestyle. Also I much prefer people that can stay for at least two months as there is a learning curve with the job and it just works better with being trained.
I have owned my home for 45 years and I am an avid traveler. I flew with my two Havanese pups to Europe in January and wild camped in a campervan for over 3 months. I treat my staff extremely well as I know what it is like to be on the road in a strange place and how I would expect to be treated if I was doing this kind of job.

My first volunteer experience here truly opened up my world! Dianne's a hardworking and energetic person, she’s kind to me throughout my stay. The work wasn’t too hard but it's a little bit tricky for me to plan ahead since I also worked remotely, and some days the flexible schedule drained my energy, but overall it was fine. I met many different kinds of people, and learned how to adapt and handle different situations. I loved staying in a van, surrounded by cute pups, cats, and beautiful nature. I would definitely come back with my driver’s licence and explore the island with the van!

A great first worldpackers experience. Dianne was very friendly and took me on loads of hikes around the island often followed by a lovely breakfast. No set hours so could be tricky to plan days too much in advance in case things came up. Some days could be busier than expected but overall lots of free time for me to head out and do my own exploring. I loved taking care of and living with all the cats as they're so cute and friendly.

i really enjoyed my time with dianne in victoria. her place is beautiful and had plenty of amenities. it was also in a great location that made exploring the lovely city of victoria super easy!
the work was fair, and not very difficult, though there are no real set hours of work, but that didn’t really bother me much.
dianne made me feel very welcome and i enjoyed hearing the stories she shared of her life and the travel tips she had for me.
i was able to meet lots of people by volunteering here, and was a great learning experience tackling tasks that were new to me!

My previous review was deleted due to ‘accusations’, aka detailing horrific events that I experienced, so I’ll rewrite in ‘I statements’…
I think Dianne needs to work on interpersonal skills, because it is not nice to tell people they are unwanted and useless, and understanding the importance of fixed hours and time off. I felt sad after myself and two others were evicted overnight– alone, 6 weeks early, without anywhere to go– because she had too many staff. I suggest Dianne improves on her treatment of people before she continues on Worldpackers. PLEASE message before you sign up.

It is so unfortunate things did not work out for you as I have had many people stay here over the past 10 years and you are the first one I have hosted that just was not a good fit here. I appreciate your feedback as we all have different experiences and I hope the rest of your journey worked out better for you. I will continue to host travellers as all of the others have had a very positive time here.
