The Center has been such an amazing experience. Stjärnsund is such a peaceful little village and the community is so welcoming and kind. It has been great getting to know the locals and other volunteers. There is lots of flexibility with the work and you can do what inspires you most + learn a lot, there is always something new to do. Kelsey has been an amazing host with great communication & is always there to listen or help with anything. 💗 The nature and landscapes around the Center are also breathtaking, both in the warmer and colder months. I would recommend this stay to everyone!

Isabel and Sheridan landed into the volunteer house with so much ease, always friendly and happy to help out with all the tasks. They took great care of the garden, easy to talk to. Isabel has some extra skills with technology as well which has been great! They are both just really sweet to have around. Wish them well on their next adventures.

I had such a lovely time at the Center! The surrounding area is gorgeous, incredible walks around the village. I also loved meeting all the local living there, as well as all the other volunteers and travelers. Such a great community! I worked remotely while staying there (good wifi, no problems) and the volunteer hours were as expected (they were super flexible). I'll definitely be coming back at some point and highly recommend this experience!

Nicole managed to balance her work online and connecting with her environment, the other volunteers and finding the time to paint and help out however she could. Nicole is an excellent communicator and it was a pleasure to share watching the northern lights together.

The most magical place I've ever been. The town is quaint and surrounded by beautiful nature. Everyone I interacted with so genuine and kind. Kelsey who works with the volunteers is an angel who made me feel so safe and seen throughout my time. The work was light and great experience, I never felt overwhelmed. Communication was incredible and we always had access to guidance and help. The accommodations were so cozy, I also loved all my fellow volunteers so so much which made my time extraordinary. I'd love to go back and recommend it to travelers looking to be part of a community.

My 9 nights at the Center were truly special. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the warmth and positive energy of this place. Everyone — the hosts, volunteers, and guests — added their own spark, creating such a kind and uplifting atmosphere. Every day had something meaningful — sharing meals, having deep talks, or just sitting quietly surrounded by nature. the Center isn't just a hostel; it's a beautiful community where you feel supported, inspired, and at peace. Saying goodbye wasn't easy. Now I've found an extended family here. I'm so grateful for the time I had and can't wait to come back.

I had the most amazing time in the Center. The community is warm and open, and I met so many lovely people - fellow volunteers and locals - and always felt welcomed and included. The surroundings are beautiful, plenty to explore in your free time. With the work (loved painting the windows) I really appreciated how flexible the schedule was, which gave me space to enjoy the days however I wanted. Kelsey was such a wonderful host — she trusted us completely and always made us feel that our work was truly appreciated. I'm really grateful for my time here and would recommend the Center to anyone!

Had a great experience working with Heretta. I was able to hand over some tasks with lots of little details and tool care with full trust. She did an excellent job on painting and working with linseedoil paint making an impressive impact on the care of the main building and the volunteer house. All the volunteers went out of their way to give positive feedback about Heretta and her capacity to figure things out with her handy, creative skills. She is welcome back anytime for a visit :)
