It was my first volunteer experience, and I really enjoyed it. The place is beautiful, full of nature, calm, and you can enjoy a real Finnish sauna. Ahmed and Joel are really amazing people, and Sophia is very smart and helpful. The work is flexible (a bit more challenging in cottage) you can manage your time. I highly recommend this experience if you love nature, peace, and outdoor activities.

It was my first experience with World Packers, and I really enjoyed it. I highly recommend this experience if you love nature, tranquility, and sports. The work is very flexible, and you can manage your time. Sofia and the others you'll meet here are lovely and kind people, with whom you can learn about Finnish culture. I had the opportunity to stay few days at Sofia's Cottage, completely immersed in nature, and it was a unique experience. Overall, I highly recommend this experience; the time flew by also if Savitaiplae is very small town. I hope to come back one day.

I loved this place, surrounded by nature and near a huge lake where you can go swimming and get some sun. Sofia is a very kind and caring person, even Ahmed her assistant is very kind, helpful and nice. The work is not hard and there is a lot of flexibility with the schedules, I hope to go back one day.

Kanji has been an incredible asset. He's dedicated, approachable, and always ready to step in when needed. His efforts in keeping everything running smoothly have made a huge difference. We truly value all he's done to help, and hope to meet him again.. Take care and best of luck. Other hosts will be lucky to have you.

I sincerely thank Sofia from the bottom of my heart for everything. I spent wonderful days surrounded by the snow I had missed so much and immersed in Finnish end-of-year traditions. The warmth of the hospitality, the charm of the local culture, and the breathtaking landscapes made this experience truly unforgettable. I hope to return to Savitaipale someday, as the surrounding nature has truly stolen my heart.

O lado negativo é que o ambiente pode ser bastante desgastante: a anfitriã muito controladora, acaba explorando os voluntários, a comida oferecida é insuficiente, não sendo considerado nem o mínimo necessário (apenas 15 euros para todos, independente quantos sejam, durante a semana). Além disso, passávamos longas horas na cottage trabalhando, muito mais do que o esperado, tarefas "extras" de convívio. Por outro lado, há pontos positivos: o Ahmed é uma pessoa fantástica, há contato direto com a natureza, oportunidade de conhecer pessoas de outros países e também de praticar o inglês.
