    I'm taking two gap years (possibly two and a half) and aside from working full time and getting my grades up in order to get into law school, this is what I plan doing in my last months before enrolling into university. Hopefully that dream and wish of mine will be fullfilled!

    Did you receive any pocket money? The cost of living gets covered but I would assume you'd get some extra money to fund your own hobbies etc. This sounds similar to au pairing and the host family does provide some pocket money.

      @ImaniBrooksimb 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey! I think it depends and can vary! I just left the work away website a few minutes ago and saw hosts mentioning the certain time frames they want you to stay. Some host I saw have you stay for only 2 month while others have different options ranging as far as 6 months to a year for you to stay with them ! :)
      So I believe it depends on what host you get and the type of work you get!♥️
      When you are doing your search next time for a host and when you look at their profile about what they do and their stay; they should also be able to tell you the certain timeframe you will be staying there with them! And if it meets your 2 month mark, definitely check them out and stay with them :)! Xxx But yesss the time frame can depend and can vary with different work and hosts.

      @lottecooper4370 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You usually pay for it yourself 😌 also many people don't offer extra payment, so if you're looking for pocket money, you should rather do au pairing. (I was an au pair before and got paid, now I'm doing a host family stay and basically work as an au pair. But since we found each other on workaway and it's not explicitly called au pairing, I don't get money) 😅
