The Experience

We are a family of 2 adults and 4 children living next to Tiveden National Park in Sweden, Tived. Our place is situated really beautifully next to the lake of the national park. To be here gives you the feeling of being in the middle of nowhere and we are surrounded of a wild forest with many lakes and lots of berries and mushrooms to pick. We work with tourism and run a B&B and activity center.

I will really recomend this place for travelers who like to be both social and enjoy being close to beautiful nature. The tasks differ from day to day, a good variation, you live together with other volunteers and have plenty of time free to use the facilities. I have enjoyed my stay there so much!

Volunteering at the host was such an amazing experience, I loved being able to get in touch with locals as well as meet people from all over the world! It was also nice being able to do activities like horse riding, kayaking, swimming in the lake or going in the sauna. In general atmosphere was always friendly and enjoyable can definitely recommend :)

My experience in the host was very good. The Sannö family is very warmhearted and openminded. I felt very comfortable. It was a really nice experience to meet so many people from different countries and at the same time Swedish locals. Even after work you have enough leisure opportunities. I really liked swimming in the lake or hiking in the national park. In summary, I can say that it is a real enrichment to be a volunteer in the host. You will leave this place with good friends and beautiful experiences.

Our experience at the host was amazing! The team made us feel welcome and comfortable. the place is beautiful and perfect for reconnecting with nature. Klass and Jessica were kind and sweet, they were always checking if we were okay and having fun. They also offered us a lot of activities to do, and every day we had something different and special to do. I would really recommend the host if you like spending time outdoors.

The host will always remain in my memory, a beautiful place full of nature that I recommend 100%, all the staff and volunteers were always friendly. It was an incredible experience where we did activities such as camping, kayaking, swimming in the lake, hiking, etc where the staff was always willing to help us. Without a doubt it exceeded our expectations and the experiences and the people we met were very special.
