I can only say good things about this experience. From the first day Lilian and Antonio were very kind and welcoming. The tasks were very clear and I really enjoyed doing them. I had a very good time during the working hours and also talking, playing cards, watching a movie all together while having hot chocolate or dinner, having a picnic in the boat, or even trying to find the Northern lights. (And many other things) The place, the food, the people... absolutely everything was really really nice! Thanks a lot for all the beautiful moments and memories! ❤✨

The experience with Liliana and Antonio was very positive and they are truly kind. They are too modest to admit but they are doing an incredible work to revitalise the space and create multiple opportunities for the local community to engage and grow. They started the renovation of the space by themselves and did a super job so far, but there still much to do and the volunteers have plenty of opportunity to contribute and learn practical skills. They are flexible and open, by moments they are busy with guest but always took the time to listen and clarify any questions or needs.

This experience was completely different from anything I've experienced before. Living by the lake, surrounded by the forest and far away from the noise of city life, was truly peaceful and refreshing. I was welcomed by such a kind and lovely family, which made the experience even more special. Thank you for such an incredible stay! If you're looking to reconnect with yourself and with the host, this is definitely the place to be. Highly recommended! 🌿💚

From the moment I arrived, Antonio and Lilian were super warm and welcoming, making sure that I was comfortable with my stay and my work tasks. The housekeeping responsibilities were straightforward, and there were also adhoc campsite tasks like painting and landscaping! Antonio was such a great cook and meals on work the host were the best part which I always looked forward to. We also had meals together with the fam sometimes 🤍 It was a lovely volunteer experience, you can see the positive energy that the hosts wanted to channel. I'm thankful and will always remember it fondly :)

From the first moment on they made me feel like I was part of there Familie. They are open-minded, friendly and so welcoming people. They always had a open ear for me and where always there for me. I had wonderful conversations with them and a lot of fun. With them I found a home away from home. So I can only recommend them to everyone.

The weeks I spent with Antonio, Lilian, and their children at the host were wonderful. I received such warm and thoughtful hospitality. Working with Antonio on renovating the kitchen was fun and never too tiring. Having meaningful conversations with Lilian was enriching and always a pleasure. Saying they made me feel at home would actually be an understatement. The place is beautiful: I will always carry in my heart those peaceful and serene moments spent under the trees, watching the river flow by. I had such a good time there that the only sad part was having to say goodbye.

Antonio and Lilian are an amazing couple who have built an awe-striking place at the heath of northern Finland with their cheerfull family. Mireia and I spent 1 month in Nature Dream Days and got to connect with nature, hike, row a boat and participate in local finnish activities like sauna. The work was easy and meaningfull like painting, gardening or cleaning the camping cabins. Antonio is an amazing cook that makes the most delicious vegetarian meals. Overall we really learned from our time at Nature Dream Days and grew personally. We would definetly recomend everyone to come and try!

I had a great time during my first-ever volunteer experience!! Thanks to the kind family and the impeccable the host, I was able to spend 3 weeks surrounded by the host. The tasks were well communicated and varied throughout the weeks. One has to know that it can get quite lonely since the family is very busy, and the possibilities of experiencing more social areas are very limited. Still, I had a great time, also shoutout to Mireia and Carlos for making this time even more special:)))

Undoubtedly the experience has been wonderful, and that is due to Lilian, Antonio and their children, who have made me feel at home. From the very first moment, their infinite patience helped me learn to carry out the tasks I was required to perform efficiently. This experience has allowed me to get to know Finnish culture a little better, nearby towns, customs, and cultural events they carry out throughout the year. From this volunteer work and from the hosts, I can only say good things; they have been wonderful, they have kept to what was agreed and even did not give more than what they promised.

For my first Worldpackers experience, I loved my stay. Lilian and his family were very kind, which is reassuring and makes you feel at ease. The setting is beautiful, the campsite well maintained, and there are plenty of things to do nearby. As for volunteering, the tasks are varied, stimulating, and always very well explained; you never get bored. Beyond the work, I enjoyed our conversations and Antonio's great cooking talents. A perfect human adventure that I recommend without any hesitation. Thanks for everything!
