I've been in Mysen with my girlfriend for a week and it was overall a good experience. Helene has been a welcoming host, always willing to help and to chat and very flexible with everyone's schedule. The work is not much but can be sometimes demanding, also be prepared to get your hands dirty. The place is a bit in the middle of nowhere, there is not much to do or to see, but you can go visit Oslo (Helene can even host you in her house there)

I had a great time in Mysen ! The room I was staying in was so comfy, and many food items are provided. The tasks are easy to understand and can vary a lot (just prepare to get your clothes dirty). Helen is very flexible regarding the hours of work, and days off. She also kindly let us sleep in Oslo for free :)

My experience in Norway was great. I spent two weeks with Helene, the work was simple and enjoyable – painting, cleaning and some gardening. Helene was very kind and flexible, letting us plan our schedule, so we sometimes worked longer hours to enjoy an extra free day for exploring. She even offered us to stay at her house in Oslo, such a generous gesture. Accommodation was basic but fine for two weeks, and food required some creativity but we never went hungry. Overall, a wonderful experience to discover Norway in a different way – just keep in mind it's volunteering, not a five-star stay.

Here's some possible helpful information. The hours are extremely flexible-you just need to complete your daily work. The tasks are often done in pairs or a group and are never boring: I cleaned walls, painted, sanded a bench, and tidied up the garden. Helene handles the grocery shopping, volunteers cook and wash the dishes. The rooms are all single. Helene is an amazing host: always very helpful, kind, courteous, and incredibly friendly. It's impossible not to love her! It was a wonderful first trip with Worldpackers. Fun tasks and a great place to socialize. Highly recommend.

I would recommend coming here to help. Helene is very kind, the work is easy, and you can choose when to start your day. I mostly painted the house and windows, and with up to 18 volunteers there's always someone to hang out with, so being social helps! You cook in a shared kitchen with basics provided, and often meals are shared since the kitchen is the heart of the house. Evenings meant movies or cards and start late, so it's perfect if you are a night owl. Accommodation ranges in privacy (sometimes curtain for door). I stayed 2 weeks, but the people quickly grew close to my heart.♡

Helen was such a kind, flexible, and fun person! She actively communicated with the volunteers and always made sure we could interact together. The work tasks were easy to understand, and the working hours were very flexible. Helen is very creative, and her ideas about the future of this house were fascinating. I also found her stories about Norwegian society and her past travels incredibly interesting, and I learned so much from them. The room was clean and offered plenty of privacy, and all the other volunteers were wonderful people, making it a great cultural exchange experience!

I just left Mysen and I can confirm that it has been an incredible experience. The work is very easy, and Helen, the host, is always on hand to make sure we don't lack anything. It's an incredible place to disconnect from the routine and meet other wonderful volunteers from all over the world. I recommend it to everyone.

My stay at Mysen has been a great opportunity to learn about myself and others, as well as learning new practical skills. Helene and her place are amazing (has anything you need) and I will be forever grateful for her kindness, trust in me and everything she had offered and still offers all of us ❤️ Good luck with all the plans and projects Helene, you'll smash it!!

I had lovely time in here & 1week was almost too short. Helene is a great host, very easygoing, inspirational & present around the volunteers. The work was not difficult & mostly done in pairs. I enjoyed hanging out with the other volunteers, chatting in the kitchen, sharing food or exploring Mysen. I loved that there were so many people around & I even learned some Spanish words which I didn't expect haha. I'm leaving Mysen with valuable memories & If you're proactive, outgoing, fun, this place is for you🙌🏻
