First time WWOOFing in Hawaii?
My girlfriend and I (21m and 22f) have planned a trip to the Big Island of Hawaii to wwoof for a month this summer. We got accepted to one of the most reviewed farms on the Big island of Hawaii (most popular - 62 reviews if you want to check the actual farm). Nothing but good reviews besides one woman who it honestly seemed like her fault.
However, I have started to see people talk about WWOOFing in general in Hawaii as a rough experience or potentially dangerous? I’m not really sure whether to be worried or not. I am an MMA fighter so I generally am not too worried but obviously if something crazy happened it could be bad. We FaceTimed the owners and they seemed nice and everything seemed very normal. It’s 16 hours a week for a place to stay and some groceries but we have to cook which isn’t a problem for us. There’s really been zero bad signs other than just hearing about other peoples experiences in Hawaii. Any tips or recommendations? This is our first WWOOFing experience ever and just want to make sure we’re safe and not walking into anything weird. If anyone has wwoofed on the big island before or in Hawaii generally - sharing your experience would really help us. Thanks!
