The Experience

Our volunteers share a house with 5 bedrooms. There's a kitchen and one bathroom. It also has a nice terrace with a nice view of a lake, right in front of the house. The house is situated, really beautifully in the middle of the wild forest, 4 km away from Ösjönäs, our B&B. The volunteers get a bike to use to get around.

I've enjoyed my experience at the host so, so much. The work was really nice and enjoyable, and Klas and Jessica always check in on you to make sure that you're doing alright and that you're not missing anything, which I appreciated a lot. Tiveden looks magical, like something out of a fairytale, and there are many ways to enjoy it and its nature: you can go on walks, hikes, kayaking, or on bike and horse rides, and you'll get in touch with foreigners, locals and volunteers alike. I'm bringing home so many good memories, and I truly can't wait to go back. Until then, I wish them all the best<3

I am really glad that I had an opportunity to volunteer in this beautiful place! The family is very caring, and it's important to them that you are satisfied and that you have everything you need. Their workers are also supportive and will show you everything about the job you need to do. Work is not hard, it includes only the things written in the description and depends on the needs of a particular day. The place is situated in the national park, and you can explore stunning nature by hiking, cycling or canoeing after work. You can even observe and admire forest, lakes and the ani

It was my first wonderful volunteer experience. Beautiful nature all around. Forests, lakes, meadows, rocks, and narrow gravel roads winding between red wooden houses. The Sannö family are very nice and warm people. They are helpful and always ask if everything is okay. The work is simple and varies depending on the time of day. After work, there are many opportunities to spend your free time. There are bicycles, kayaks, horse riding, swimming in the lake, a rope park, hiking trails, sauna and barbecue areas. It was a great vacation for me. I gained new experiences and friends.

I will really recomend this place for travelers who like to be both social and enjoy being close to beautiful nature. The tasks differ from day to day, a good variation, you live together with other volunteers and have plenty of time free to use the facilities. I have enjoyed my stay there so much!
