It was a very good experience, I really enjoyed my time there at the guest house. It's a nice quiet place surrounded by nature. Was an excellent group of people I have to mention everyone the volunteers, the hosts their family and all the members of the stuff. I have to thank all of them for let me be part of that experience.

I had the best experience I could have hoped for here at Tolvbso. It was my first time volunteering, but from day 1 on, I felt at home. They are such welcoming, kindhearted people. Our tasks mostly included cooking and cleaning in the kitchen. The work was a lot of fun, and time would fly by. Having other volunteers there with you was also an amazing way to make new friends- we would play cards, go for walks, watch movies, and enjoy hikes. Overall, would 100% recommend, especially if you want a break from city life. Thank you so much, Roswitha, Ilse, and Reinder, for this wonderful time!

Volunteering at the guest house during the Julbord period, a Christmas dinner table that runs for an entire month, was absolutely amazing. The work was varied and work hours were always respected, but above all, it felt like I had a second home here. Ilse and Reinder, the new owners, are amazing people and were always making sure that everything was okay. During my stay, together with the previous owner, they put so much love into this place, which made it feel more like helping out than working. The surrounding area is also breathtaking with lots of magical walks that you can take in the forest

We had an amazing time at the guest house. Every single day was so much fun, we were always learning new things. We had very varied tasks including dog-walking, gardenwork, cooking, baking, painting, cleaning, packing and many many more. This made sure that no two days felt the same and every single day kept us learning. They were the kindest, most welcoming, most generous people who did everything they can to make us feel at home and succeeded greatly at it. We also met volunteers from different countries and after our hours we would enjoy the great nature in the guest house together. I'd love to go again!
