[...] Greece pictures Italy pictures Spain pictures I went WWOOFing for most of summer 2008 with my best friend, Molly. Like any WWOOFers, we went for many reasons, not all of them equally admirable: meeting new people; practicing foreign languages; learning new languages; learning about sustainable agriculture; getting exercise; getting a tan; creating great tell-our-grandkids stories. Perhaps one of the greatest WWOOFing draws is the promise of cheap travel, allowing a person to do it for months (or, in some cases, years) on end, making it perfect for a gap year or the post-college identity crisis (not that I’d know anything about that). It also is an adventure, a way to get your ya-yas out before marriage and kids. Plus, you can make it sound good on all sorts of applications. (As one might guess, WWOOFing is particularly popular among the late-teens to –twenties set.) Furthermore, coming as I do from a farm in rural Iowa, I was excited to see how it was done in other countries.
