Rest of Tourists at Farmhouse

In connection with enough, if it is possible so to say, not low prices for tours to various countries of the world, now farming is becoming more widespread as a separate type of recreation. This innovation was opened specifically for those who love nature, but can not lay out an amount of money for the purchase of the tour. The essence of this proposal is a completely free settlement of tourists on the territory of a certain farm.

The main idea of this project is the relationship between tourists and farmers, the satisfaction of the needs of both. That is, for free accommodation on the farm, as well as absolutely free food, tourists should spend some time during the day to work on the farm, which in turn will help them acquire new knowledge and skills in this or that branch of farming.

The development of this type of vacation is organized by an organization called WWOOF (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms). As already noted, when resting on a farm, the tourist spends nothing, only a few hours a day to "interact" with the land. The only thing you have to pay a fee of $ 30 per year for participating in the organization.

It is also necessary to say that this organization cooperates with many farms around the world, so its participants are given a huge choice of places for recreation. Here you can select the location of the farm, as well as specify the time of work, and the type of activity that you have to perform.

You can also directly contact the farmers through this organization, clarify and discuss the issues that interest you.

Tourists who instead of tours around Europe choose this type of recreation, accommodation and food are absolutely free, although they are paid for their journey to the destination on their own. According to the agreement, the farmer does not pay for the work of tourists in money terms. Tourists receive payment in the form of acquired knowledge and skills. In turn, tourists who go to the farm, should understand the fact that they go on vacation is not passive, but rather active.

As a result, it should be noted that the organization WWOOF has its branches on all continents. Before tourists there is a huge choice of arrangements and specializations of farms. In this regard, it should be noted that everyone willing to try this type of recreation will pick up a deal for themselves and will be satisfied.
