Welcome to the heart of Savitaipale ,Finland.

Την τρίτη ημέρα με πήγε με ένα φορτηγό να κουβαλήσω από ένα παρατημένο σχολείο μακριά από το κατάστημα που πήγα να προσφέρω τις υπηρεσίες μου κάτι βαριές ντουλάπες και άλλα πράγματα. Παρότι είπα ότι έχω πρόβλημα με την μέση μου έκανα αυτή την μεταφορά που δεν ήταν στην αρμοδιότητα μου για να βοηθήσω αφού με πήγαν πίσω να πάρω μια ζώνη που είχα για το πρόβλημα της μέσης μου. Ύστερα από αυτό μετά δύο ημέρες με ξαναπήγαν σε άλλο μέρος να μετακομίσουμε ένα ολόκληρο σπίτι. Αυτή ήταν η αιτία που έφυγα την άλλη ημέρα. Εάν ήξερα ότι ήθελαν εργάτη να κάνει μετακομίσεις δεν θα πήγαινα.

I spent 2 weeks in Savitaipale, and the area is beautiful. If you love hiking, this place is for you, as there isn't much else to do in this village. The work is simple and easy to understand, 25 hours a week, but it's flexible. There is separate accommodation for volunteers, and while cleanliness depends on us, it's perfectly equipped. I recommend it if you want to be close to nature and meet volunteers from different parts of the world!

Out of my 3 years of traveling now my time here stands out as a highlight for sure. Sofia is very welcoming and fun to talk to. Savitaipale and Sofia's cottage are beautiful places with access to ponds and lakes for swimming, ice skating, sledding, mini golf, sauna, hiking, biking, and more. I got the full Finnish sauna experience with Sofia and Mika at the cottage. They made my stay here both fun and informative. The accommodation is very comfy and the market being across the street makes getting groceries super convenient.

La experiencia es increíble, vives la verdadera experiencia de un Finlandes, te explican y te cuentan de su cultura, siempre se preocupan que estés bien, tengas todo lo necesario. La flexibilidad con la comida y las horas de trabajo son lo mejor porque te permiten organizarte si como yo trabajas o tienes actividades remotas.

I stayed in Savitaipale for 14 days. We helped in a second hand shop. The tasks werent complicated. We mostly did cleaning, checking and sorting clothes and other stuff for the shop. The communication with our supervisors was good and honest. The working hours can be flexible. During my stay, we visited Sofias cottage. Beautiful place with stunning nature. I felt really comfortable and welcomed there with other volunteers. We had a chance to talk with locals. In your free time you can visit lake, ice skating, a watch tower or go on a walk. I really enjoyed my stay here. 100% recommend 🤗

The experience was amazing, the work I had to do was focused on the store and being able to check out items. The tasks were simple and you could have free time to do activities in Savitaipale like rowing in the lake, riding a bike, swimming in the municipal pool, skating, among others. The location is good with a supermarket in front. You have the freedom to have your own space with the volunteers. The area is excellent for hiking in the surroundings and looking for a quiet place. You will love the banana boxes!The people in the village are very friendly. Sofia, Mohamed are amazing hosts!!

My time in Finland was fantastic thanks to the stunning nature that surrounded us and also to the cultural experiences that I had there. Sofia is such a nice, welcoming and warm person who very kindly shared with me a lot of information related to Finland and the Finnish language. I would 100% recommend you apply for this volunteer opportunity. Näkemiin!

I had a wonderful time at Savitaipale. This volunteering allows you to discover Finnish nature and Finnish culture. I was more or less autonomous for meals and work schedules which allows to share good times with the volunteers in the beautiful nature. If you are as lucky as me, you will be able to live a wonderful experience in Sophia's cottage, be invited to the Finnish house and see the Northern Lights 😍 Thank you to all the people who work there!

I don't understand what has happened. I already wrote you a review a couple of weeks ago, but I notice that it's not here :( Now the time to write the review was over... so I'm writing it here now.

Candice is a lovely young lady who gets along with everyone. He is hardworking and conscientious. I warmly recommend him for similar and even more demanding tasks. Thank you Candice, you are always welcome at Savitaipale!
