The Experience

We take care our farm together - milk the goats, feed all other animals and make the food together. We use our professional kitchen to make our dinners - and sometimes our breakfast too - and we keep kitchen areas clean as well together. We need sometimes your help to prepare in advance for example lunch or dinner or bake some bread. We hope you love to do meals and help us baking.

My experience at Ajakka was wonderful. This paradise by the lake offers absolute peace in nature. Alongside daily chores, I loved learning new skills like animal care, milking goats, and prepping the wood-fired sauna. Pipsa and Miia are amazing hosts: tireless, welcoming and also great chefs! They shared their culture, delicious homemade food, and ethical lifestyle. The lake was a daily ritual: watching the sunrise and sunset on the water was a breathtaking spectacle I couldn't get enough of.

Thank you for nice words and thank you for staying here! We wait you back one day - hopefully soon!
We saw Auroras two days ago (28/8) and will send you more pictures of those. All the best for you and as we said, see you soon!
Love, Pipsa and Miia
