Staying at Sara and Pasi's farm in northern Sweden was exactly what I didn't know I needed. I instantly felt welcomed—by them, their kind kids, the animals, the quiet nature, and the other volunteers. Days were filled with simple, meaningful moments: husky rides through snowy forests, northern lights, shared meals, and deep conversations. Their home felt warm, safe, and human. I left feeling calmer, more grounded, and grateful—for the memories, the people, and the pause. Thank you.
