This was an absolutely amazing experience! The host helped us really make the most of our time here from going into town and meeting locals to going on adventurous trips. We had a lot of freedom to explore when not working and got 2 days off per week. The work at the farm can be physical strenuous, but so rewarding! I couldn't recommend this position more, especially if you love cows.

The webpaged crashed when I wrote the review and then it was inpossible to start it over again. Lauren was an incredible volunteer. She actually followed our instructions. The first day of volounteering we want the volounteers just to watch and not disturb, Lauren did this while most others need to "help" directly. The second day she took notes. The third day she was fully contributing. Also in the house she was responsible and made the volounteers home a home.

This was the second time I have been in the farm, the first being in the summer. And I am sure I will be back again. The best host in the whole WorldPackers

Não tenho do que reclamar, as pessoas do trabalho são incríveis, a casa è enorme, pra comer tem de tudo que você quiser, horário de trabalho totalmente como o combinado, nos dias offs ele te leva pra fazer coisas diferentes, como restaurantes, ski, festas, passeios. Olle è incrível, recepção incrível, fiquei um mês aqui com eles, fui pra Umeå ainda aqui na suécia, fiquei um dia lá, tive uma experiência horrível mandei mensagem pro Olle e ele me recebeu novamente, estou indo para o meu segundo mês aqui, e estou amando, por mim nem iria embora! tudo muito incrível! eu realmente amo esse lugar.

I had a really nice experience in Sweden, and Olov is an exceptionally welcoming host. Despite my short stay, I gained valuable insights into Swedish life, which Olov made very enjoyable. A big highlight is the wonderful team at the farm—Åke, Maria, and everyone else were incredibly kind and contributed greatly to this positive experience. The house is a charming, family-owned property with a lot of character and potential. While some aspects require a flexible mindset, the overall experience was positive and memorable.

The work with the cows is very rewarding and the people at the farm are all very nice and kind. Olov is a great guy, he's flexible and welcoming, he was only there in weekends and would get whatever groceries we asked for, and often cook for us. We also loved the cats and slept with them almost every night. The reasons why I didn't leave 5 stars are that the house is quite messy, many things don't work properly, and although we applied for morning shifts, we had to split between each other mornings and afternoons. All in all, it was an unforgettable experience and I wish to come back someday

Yes when everyone that applied to work with the cows want to do the morning shift there have to be a division between morning and afternoon. Guglielmo did not give any reason why he wanted the mornings and why he had a better reason to do mornings than the other volunteers. After the introduction that always are in the afternoon they kind of got stuck with the afternoon as I did not want to make a schedule with evening followed by earlie morning. In general there was little discussion and planning with them. I was waiting for them to show up so we could plan the schedule according to when they wanted to be free and they where waiting for me to send the schedule so they could plan their free time.

I had a good-ish time at the farm. Living with the other volunteers was fun and the gardening work was super flexible. Seeing the cow barn was such an interesting experience, too. Olov was very eager to take us on trips and always informing us about upcoming events. However, living in the house was super taxing on me. Nothing was working properly, half of the rooms were unusable, and there was no comfy space for us to gather execpt for half a tv-room. Overall, I think the experience here depends a lot on the other volunteers and how comfortable you are with an uncomfortable living space.

This was my first worldpackers experience and i was happy to hear from other volunteers that its usually nothing like this. I felt really uncomfortable while i was there. The house was an absolute mess, not because of volunteers 'not cleaning up after themselves' but because its the house of a hoarder. If you want to live like that thats totally fine, but then dont invite volunteers into the house. The work with the cows was honestly quite depressing and i have not had the farm since.. thinking of turning vegan. This place was just no good for my mental health, this is why i left early.

I didn't enjoy my stay, I don't think the cleanliness and organization of the house was adequate and i didn't feel comfortable with Olov.

Olov was very nice and welcoming to me, but I know he made the female volunteers feel very uncomfortable, which resulted in them leaving early. The work is ok, but the house was a mess, and very dirty. The surrounding area is lovely, but without a driving license, it is hard to get anywhere.
