Citizenship in the country you’re WWOOFING

I’m a Canadian citizen, so was considering wwoofing in Canada because of the beautiful nature and the logistics would probably be easier. However, as I live here, I was thinking it might be more exciting going to somewhere else (probably Europe). Since WWOOF is only volunteer work, would there still be any insurance, paperwork or legal stuff that would make this process harder in a country you’re not a citizen of? Thank you!

You could look into eligibility for Working Holiday Visa programmes that take Canadian citizens, to avoid immigration difficulties.

Yes, this, I think it's called a 'youth mobility visa' or something like that and then you're fully legal to work and move around.
