Enjoy Lofoten while helping us with cleaning our farm house!

Overall I had an incredible seven weeks at Myklivik the farm. Gisle and Åshild were lovely hosts. The work was varied, but mostly cooking, cleaning and harvesting on the farm. The volunteer house was a really cozy and fun environment. Staying here was an incredible way to experience Lofoten, and the balance of work and free time is good. At times the farm felt a bit disorganized and messy, however if you can handle that everything else about my stay was really lovely.

I had a great time at the farm. Åshild, Gisle, and the whole family were really nice and attentive. I absolutely enjoyed experiencing the Christmas period with them. The working hours and free time were well-balanced, with plenty of opportunities to learn new things and then enjoy the rest of the day. Lofoten has amazing nature, so it was great to explore it with the other volunteers.

I did not feel welcome by the hosts and the tasks were against my values. The other voulnteers were amazing and made my stay as nice as possible. They assured me my arrival was the worst time to join the farm and they all love being there. I truly belive them and maybe it just was bad timing for me..
