The eco village was really nice. The place is huge and there is a lot of nature around. It is a little far from the nearest city though, but they have bikes and cars you can ride, and also a lot of people coming and going all the time so you can ask for a ride. The hosts are super friendly and the volunteers were as well. If you don't mind eating vegetarian, I definitely recommend staying some time there.

I had the opportunity to spend a few weeks at the eco village at the end of the summer and it was a great experience. All the people are very nice and I was lucky enough to meet a group of exceptional people who were also volunteers. The facilities are very good and the food is well managed. Torsten, Raisa and all the people working there really made a special place to be in. I'm looking forward to coming back to see the progress in the makerspace and the winter in Finland. Thank you to all the fellow volunteers and artists for bringing us together to share special moments!!

The place was an old sanatorium, restored. I found it very nice, spacious and comfortable. It is surrounded by a forest where you can do different activities such as mushroom picking, walking and even cycling (they lend you a bike). There is also a lake nearby to go swimming (I recommend it). Regarding the work, they keep to the schedules and are very easy to do. You learn many things and they are useful for gaining experience. The people are very kind and have a lot of patience to teach you. Regarding the food, there is always food in the pantry and they usually do the shopping once a week an

The eco village is such an special place! I spent one amazing month doing all kind of tasks: carpintery, breaking walls, cleaning... I had also the chance of being there during a weekend festival, where we all worked together. Apart from that, it is an amazing place for discoveging how is living in a community and the Finnish way of living. I had my own space and, at the same time, I spent an amazing time doing all type of plans with volunteers from all over the world. Lastly, sharing time with the artists of the residence was so inspiring! It was such an amazing experience that I will go back soon

Living at the eco village was a huge experience. It was my first volunteering and it was simply way more than I expected. Even you little bit away from a big city the hosts always try to make the enviroment extremely welcoming, enjoyable and more important of all: friendly. I really liked in volunteering at HubFeenix, vegeterian food is SO GOOD haha, I really liked. And more learning about wood working, local culture, maintance in general, gardening, painting, etc. Other remarkable benefit here is the flexibility that the hosts give to the volunteers. Thank you HubFeenix! Kiitos =)

Well it was great to have you guys. I'm sorry due to my illness i missed our review date. I specifically asked others, and everyone on the team agreed that both of you were very friendly, trustworthy and hard-working, and socially easy going. Please refer hosts to this if needed. Good luck on your journey

The experience at HubFeenix was very good and suited to what was agreed in the interview. We only planned to stay for 2 months but ended up extending our stay, this means I'm writing this review while continuing to volunteer. The highlight of the eco village is the giant space to explore, the beautiful nature around the building and the horses and sheeps that we had a lot of contact with and loved every second close to them. The rooms are comfortable and we never lacked food, which is an important point. The staff team are kind people and always willing to help.

The experience on the eco village was awesome. The people there is awesome, nature around is beautiful. Everything seems to be in order, the staff are really communicative, helpful and care about the volunteers. Absolutely recommended for beginners on worldpackers and people who want to learn new skills.

Wow!!! This was such a cool experience to have had. I really liked that the tasks/jobs vary, so you're never bored. The group of volunteers was very friendly, and the staff were all super kind and welcoming. When there was a problem with a volunteer, it was handled respectfully and they spoke openly about the issue. It truly feels like a collaborative, safe place to be. I absolutely recommend this place to travelers if you want to immerse yourself in nature and take a step back from city life.
