A wonderful experience that I would recommend to anyone! Monica and Mario are sooo kind and generous, and they have lots of experience traveling and hosting volunteers. Skrova is STUNNING and so peaceful. It's also possible to take trips to other parts of Lofoten on your days off. The work itself is simple, hours are well respected, and you're given a lot of trust and autonomy to complete tasks. I'm very grateful that I was able to be a part of the team the host this summer. I would love to come back and visit again soon! ☀️

Simply amazing!!!! I had my best time the host. I've been here for over a month and even if the island is really small, i never got tired of it. I wish i could stay longer! Monica and Mario are incredibly kind and since the begining i felt really welcomed, both by them and the other volunteers. The work is about 5 hours per day, that leaves you with a lot of free time to enjoy the beach, hiking, swimmig, biking, camping and just spending time with the other volunteers. I highly recommend this experience.

I got some good the host experience, spent a lot of time relaxing on the beach, cold plunging, sauna, camping, biking, etc. the accommodation is super big and there was lots of food. They also provide bikes to get to the host which is super nice. I absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to experience the magic of Skrova!! Thank you again Monica and Mario🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴❤️⛰️

Our time the host was amazing. We felt very welcome from the beginning and really enjoyed being part of the team. The work was fair and well organized, around 5 hours a day, and we still had lots of time to spend with the other volunteers. Everyone was kind, helpful, and respectful, which made it easy to learn and work together. The atmosphere was always positive, and we can truly recommend this place to everyone. The nature the host is magical and we will definitely come back!
