I had an amazing time in Pillapalu. Robin and Brigit really care about volunteers and try to make sure that they have the best experience there. I've felt in the right place since the first day. It's cool that there are tasks and jobs to do but you can also propose something. Amazing!

Qué amable. Es fácil gestionar a los voluntarios que tienen la actitud adecuada :) Gracias de nuevo por todo.

The Pillapalu experience was phenomenal. Robin is a fantastic host with a wide variety of tasks to be accomplished each day. There are no set hours and you are able to work on what you are best at. the lodge is an amazing place to connect with nature, and the sauna was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this opportunity for anybody who wants to learn more about the medicinal properties of different types of mushrooms, and wants to learn more about Estonian culture.

Birgit and Robin were thoughtful and fair hosts. They took a collaborative approach to establishing reasonable work expectations while providing flexibility for us to pursue our interests. I enjoyed the variety of our volunteer tasks which ranged from transporting logs to greenhouse work and painting. During our downtime, I got to know the host family (including two very sweet dogs), ate delicious homemade food and took in the surrounding the lodge and nearby lake. Overall, I had fun and insightful experience and would recommend Pillapalu to other volunteers!

Birgit and Robin are very generous and communicative hosts. The work is fair and expectations are set early on with an open discussion. My main project was compiling research on Chaga. I also helped fix the tomato greenhouse, move logs from the lodge, paint and da bit of packing and labeling. Our hosts taught us about Estonian culture and history and offered us local experiences, which were much appreciated. We visited a local art exhibition, swam in a nearby lake and had sauna together. I learned a lot during my short time at the lodge and the experiences will stay with me.

It was a wonderful experience! I had the opportunity to try new things such us chopping wood and using a chainsaw. The tasks were many: gardening, cooking and cleaning are just few of them. I enjoyed bike rides, swimming at the lake, exploring the lodge and spending time with the amazing volunteers I met. Working hours are flexible, rooms are comfortable. Sauna party was great, too. Birgit and Robin are a lovely couple and I will always cherish all the conversations we had. There's a lot to learn from them! In my opinion, self motivation and hard work are the key at the lodge.

I had an amazing experience at the lodge. It was a perfect opportunity to escape hectic life with a slower pace of living whilst being surrounded by nature. The hosts were great, Birgit and Robin are very welcoming. The food was incredible, you will never go hungry here. If you are interested in cooking you will have the opportunity to get involved. The hosts also took us to the lakes for a swim twice during the week I was there. My key task was painting. We had entire creative freedom which I loved. I was proud to be involved in the fairy door project! Thanks so much :)

This was such an amazing experience! As an artist you have a lot of freedom, you can choose what you want to paint and how, as long as it's related to nature. 🎨 It is an awesome place to meet new people, make some art and restore your peace of mind, surrounded by nature! Working hours are not strict, sometimes you have more or less free time depends on the day, but you can always discuss it with hosts. I would recommend this place to everyone who's especially looking for connection with nature and meeting new people, Robin and Brigit are very friendly and welcoming. 😊

Muchas gracias, Julia, hiciste un gran trabajo :) Sí, tienes razón, las horas de trabajo no están tan controladas. Tienen sus cosas buenas y malas, supongo :)

This was truly the best experience of my life, especially because of all the amazing people I met during my adventure. It's such a great opportunity for artists to experiment with creative projects of all kinds. I had complete freedom to make an art installation between the trees. Being in the middle of a the lodge will definitely inspire you and you can detach from your daily life. Nobody's counting the hours of work which could be good or bad but I had the best time! Goodbye Pillapalu, and all the friends I made, I'll always carry you in my heart :)

Me alegra que hayas disfrutado. Tenemos que especificar una cantidad de horas de trabajo / días libres, aunque la realidad es que lo dejamos a los voluntarios para que establezcan sus propios horarios. No controlamos el tiempo. Algunos trabajan menos, otros trabajan más. Supongo que depende de cuánto lo disfrutan. Solo esperamos que las personas den la cantidad de trabajo que crean que es un intercambio justo.

Had a great experience at Pillapalu. The host and his family are super nice people. I was surprised about how many other volunteers there were, which only made the experience even more interesting. It was also good to work together with several other artists, other wise I probably would have felted lonely while working. At meal times the hole family and volunteers got together. There was plenty of food for everyone and thanks to the host and volunteers cooking skills, each meal time was served a different dich and delicious one. The house, sauna and nature are very beautiful also.

Muy amable, gracias. No siempre estamos tan ocupados y cuando hay menos voluntarios alrededor, pasamos más tiempo con ellos :) Ya verás cuándo vuelvas.

AMAZING trip. Perfect place where have some chill and relax. It was literally in the middle of the woods. the house was big, comfortable and clean. you don't find every where hosts like Robin and his wife Birgit, kind and avaliable every time. I learned how to chop wood and improve my handmade skills. I walked the dogs; help whit the deliveries preparation for their Chaga production and built a subs floor in front of the garden. During the day I could go by bike at the lake, the swamp or by walk through the lodge and one day we had a lesson about Chaga; their history, function and production.
