In addition WWOOFers often violate labor and immigration laws, sometimes just by figuring "this doesn't apply to me." After all, labor laws are for brown people who want to make money and plan on moving to the country -- not for middle class young white people who are doing a fun "work-cation" activity for a noble cause, right!? I have a few friends (from the US) who traveled to various parts of Europe to work on organic farms, in one case an Italian vineyard, and didn't bother applying for any sort of work visa, just did everything as a "tourist." Of course, they were all compensated in the form of room and board, but didn't bother reporting it or considering it as "income" like they're supposed to. I'm sure there are many Europeans coming over and doing the same thing.
