I had a great time the host. The tasks are quite easy though sometimes tiring, I really enjoyed discovering the host work! The island and the rest of Lofoten are beautiful, and I got to meet really nice people among the other volunteers. Thank you for everything Monica and Mario!

I had a great time volunteering on the island. Both housekeeping and the host were new experiences for me and the tasks were easy to learn. I appreciated being assigned on both kind of shifts and when I knew I had done the tasks as expected by the hosts. I also liked when we could work with other volunteers when there was more to be done. It was possible to arrange schedule to explore on our days off which was great. Know that you have to be flexible as you know your shift the night before. The few times all together with staff and hosts was nice. I would have taken more 😊.

Thank you to Monica and Mario for the opportunity to live the Arctic island life! It was amazing to experience the daily life and events of the small community on Skrova as well as a 24/7 daylight. Work time, tasks and demand varied day by day but hours were respected. Fellow volunteers were all great people which made the vibe in our house so fun. Although the Norwegian weather tested us, we always had things to do like playing pool, table tennis, listening to live music in the host, not to mention using sauna, paddle board, hiking, cycling and enjoying beaches when it was sunny 🫶.

A big thanks to Mario & Monica for welcoming us and showing us the ways of Skrova. No matter the weather, you could always find a cozy place to be in, whether it was the host with its jam sessions, exchanging stories and experiences with other volunteers, or exploring the many beautiful spots on the small but wonderful island itself, which on a good day can be truly mesmerizing. As for the work, it was mostly the host or guesthouse tidying/cleaning and connecting with guests, but there was enough variety to keep things interesting. I do recommend this place who is up for an adventure!

Spending almost 7 weeks the host was one of the most memorable experiences I've had. Not only was the island setring unique and unexpectedly surprising, the activities and jobs done were usually dynamic and there were always opportunities to learn something new. Wethwr it was hotel management, housekeeping, the host work, bartending or simply learning to colive with other hosts, Skrova always presented an opportunity for personal growth and close proximity to some of the worlds most incredible natural landscapes. 10/10 would recommend!
