I spent 6 wonderful weeks at the farm with horses and dogs, and I truly enjoyed every moment. From the first day, I felt like home. Sissel is incredibly kind, warm, and always in a good mood – her positivity made every day brighter. We had free time to explore the surroundings, and we could even borrow a car, which allowed us to see a lot of beautiful places in the area. I'm so grateful to Sissel and her lovely family for making me feel welcome and part of their home. A big thank you also to Lara, who was with me at the farm for 4 weeks – we shared many great memories together.

My experience here could not have been any better! Sissel is such a funny, interesting and kind person and a super caring host. I felt taken care of at all times! The farm itself is great as well, I fell in love with the very sweet horses and dogs as well as the nature around it. It's a very peaceful place yet there's lots of outdoor activities as well- hiking and swimming especially. We even got to explore the area further around which I'm so grateful for!! The work can be hard, but it was always managable and a fair amount. Overall, 100% recommend and wish I could've stayed longer! :)

My stay with Sissel was unforgettable! I had the opportunity to spend a month with her, experiencing her unique way of living and working with her wonderful horses and dogs. Her deep connection to the animals and the land was truly inspiring. Sissel creates a warm and inviting atmosphere where you feel immediately welcome. Working with the animals was fulfilling and educational. The surrounding unspoiled nature added an extra layer of peace and beauty to the experience. I'm very grateful for the time spent with her and highly recommend her as a host!

Volunteering with Sissel was a fantastic experience! She is kind and welcoming, and her animals are adorable, I could have cuddled them all day. The work was manageable, especially as a pair, leaving plenty of free time for hiking, riding, or just relaxing. Sissel even let us visit Tromsø for a weekend, which was amazing — thank you again! The location is stunning, surrounded by mountains, offering peace and quiet. It's also the perfect spot to witness the magical northern lights. I highly recommend this opportunity for anyone who loves nature and animals. Hope to visit again in Summer!

This was my first volunteer experience with Worldpackers and I really enjoyed it! Sissel and all her animals are amazing, I loved them! Especially the dogs and foals were so cute! The actual work isn't that much, yes, it can be a little challenging, especially in winter when it's cold, snowy and dark, but that's what I expected! Learning more about living and running a stable in the farm was very interesting. The nature there is stunning and a perfect place for seeing the Northern Lights :) A unique experience and good for taking off some time of the hectic life! Thank you Sissel♡

WOW, an amazing experience hosted by amazing people in the most beautiful place. I had a wonderful time volunteering at the farm. The work environment was encouraging, and I felt truly appreciated for my contributions. I would highly recommend volunteering here to anyone looking to take a step back from their day to day life where you can learn new skills, meet new people and really immerse yourself in what the area has to offer. If you're looking for a volunteer position that offers meaningful work, this is a great option. Lastly shout out to Sissel the host, she is amazing.

My experience at the farm Farmhouse was wonderful. Sissel shows incredible love for animals, caring for them with dedication and respect. I loved Adelina, a sweet mare, and enjoyed the company of a friendly kitten and the beautiful Samoyeds and Italian Volpinos. The farm's atmosphere is special, and the attention from Sissel and her family makes it even better. Plus, the daily Northern Lights are a unique spectacle. It's the perfect place to connect with nature, animals, and kind people. An unforgettable experience!

Our time at the farm House with Sissel was unforgettable! We learned so much about horses—feeding, watering, and caring for them—and also enjoyed taking care of the dogs, whose energy brightened our days. Witnessing the northern lights multiple times was truly magical, and the farm House offered the perfect setting for this incredible phenomenon. Sissel, a kind and knowledgeable host, enriched our experience with her expertise and passion for the farm lifestyle. This was a rewarding and inspiring adventure we highly recommend!

Good experience, make sure there's another volunteer cause you will have to handle the horses, dogs and cleaning the barn by yourself and it can get really lonely and lots of work. Consider doing housekeeping at the Airbnb. Make sure you have strong experience with horses. If not, it can be hard to handle all of them because the host may not be always around. The landscapes are amazing and the host sometimes can lend you the car for short distances drive to take a look around.

Hi Samantha! You would not have been handeling the horses by yourself without the horseexperience. Only the skilled ones do that. But I did not even get to tell you. The tasks would have been walking the dogs, cleaning and feeding and seldom airbnb. The in and out of the horses I do myself when I don't have skilled people. You would not even get close to a 32 h week. That is a misunderstanding. But no problem. It is still too lonely to be 1 volunteer unfortunately (cancellations)

It was my first volunteer experience and Sissels farm is the perfect place for a start into the volunteer community. If you are comfortable with animals and work in the stable you will definitely enjoy it. The hours of work per day are super fair in comparison what you get for it.( food, accommodation and free time) However the farm is very remote and from my point of view it can get very lonely if there is no other volunteer. You need to be flexible/comfortable with short time changes and housekeeping.(taking care of their air bnb) I learned a lot and left with good memories:) thank you
