WWOOFing [1] is something that you can do for a few weeks or months, in a multitude of different countries. You basically work on an organic farm in exchange for free board and food.

It can be difficult if you have a career and obligations (mortgages, loans, etc.) to just drop out for a few months of unpaid work, especially since employers generally aren't huge fans of their staff disappearing for 3 months. Some employers are open to letting their staff take a sabbatical though, so it never hurts to ask if you're actually serious about it.
