I'm very grateful for the time at the motel! I learned a lot about hospitality and it was a really nice place. The work and hours are as described and personal preferences were taken into account. I enjoyed the nature and saw the northern lights a lot! The hosts were very nice and it was interesting to get to know more about the Sami culture. There was always something to explore and I had a great time with the other volunteers. Keep in mind that this is also a camping space (so kitchen/bathroom facilities might not be directly in your accommodation) and you will have a special experience!

This place was an absolute dream! I loved my time here, everyone was so incredibly welcoming and kind. I learnt so much about the Sami culture and got to see the Northern Lights several times throughout my stay. The work was also fair and genuinely enjoyable. I am so grateful for my time here and will miss it very much!

I had a great time! The work was fair, varied and flexible, from reception and cleaning cabins/sauna to helping with catering events. I learned a lot about Sami culture, felt very welcomed, and had plenty of free time and opportunities to meet people. I stayed in a cozy private cabin with a shared bathroom.

Some notes to be mindful of: You need to be proactive and find ways to help. You also cook for yourself: breakfast ingredients are provided, though this could be better organized...

Overall, a great experience. I got what I was hoping for!

What makes the experience are the owners. Elisabeth and Henriette respect the working hours agreed with volunteers, provide the ingredients for an excellent breakfast, and are kind and helpful. The workload is fair and stays within the agreed time, and there's a proper balance between the hours worked alongside the other volunteers and the time spent relaxing together. Twice a week, Henriette welcomed us into lavvu, her Sami tent, where we lit a fire and listened to her stories of Sami culture and traditions. Sitting around the fire while she spoke was both moving and fascinating

I'd had an amazing stay in the camping. People are super friendly and you'll learn a lot about the Sami culture. If you have specific wishes about the shifts, just let Gunn Elisabeth know and she'll handle that. It's a very calm place, but if you know how to keep yourself busy, it won't be a problem.
