Informationen
Beschreibung
This is a recently started not for profit cooperative promoting creativity and well-being. Our space is a big old sanatorium, located in south-eastern Finland, one hour away from the capital Helsinki and surrounded by beautiful forests. The space is used to create a community for art, handicraft and wellness. It is important to us to create an atmosphere of open-mindedness and continuous learning.
We are creative and lively couple, and ten of our friends, who have recently started this big project creating something big and meaningful with the community around us! We are happy to welcome people to join and be part of creating it. Since it is a big space we have quite a large dedicated area for Workaway, and in the winter 3-6, in the summer 8-12 volunteers.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
You can participate in the birth of a large, not for profit community centre. You can learn all kinds of practical skills, we have lot of them and like to share. Also you learn about community living , be part of a large international intentional community (now part of GEN europe), meet artists and nomads from around the world and other travellers.
Arbeit
This is a really big space that we are well on the way to transforming into a beautiful community art & well-being space. There is help needed in
- improving the spaces, like painting, fixing, decoration
- gardening (when it's not frozen :-)
- home automation to improve our current systems
- organising the spaces/stuff
- cleaning and general help around the house
We like to find tasks people enjoy and have lots to choose from (in our weekly meetings) We also appreciate self-motivated people and in general expect everyone to do their work when they want.

Unterkunft
We have about 10 rooms for staying (see pictures), with shared bathroom and kitchen and common area. Shared rooms with 2 per room. Linen will be provided, washing machine available.
We provide basic food ingredients and volunteers often cook together. Also food from events/course is shared.
All food we buy/provide is vegetarian and we have a policy of no meat/fish in the house. Obviously we are health concious people, so no drugs and alcohol in moderation.
The closest supermarket is 6km away and there is a car available only for workaway use.
Also bikes are available and often people go together on day trips.
Also we have common sauna once a week, and there is a small gym and music room in the house.
A word about the colder season. It can start getting below 10 in October with frost (and snow) being quite a certainty from December to beginning of April. this means during that time you will have to deal with cold, and we will help you do so.
In the north we say there is no bad weather only bad clothing, and we have whole wardrobes from where you can borrow suitable clothes. Since we renovate unused spaces in the house, the working area can be not heated too, ie 10 degrees.
The most important thing is to dress well and stay moving.
Off course living quarters are heated and each room has an extra heater, but if you ever get cold, this may not be enough, then a warm shower may be needed :-)
Still, the winter is very very beautiful, winter-wonderland, and with above advice it can be a most exceptional experience.
Was noch ...
The place is surrounded by a beautiful forest for walks in nature. Also a lake nearby for swimming during the summer. There is a sauna , a movie room, a small gym, and the possibility to join other activities like yoga classes, our makers space with tools for woodwork, metalwork and sowing. There is public transportation available from close by to get to know the surrounding towns and cities.
If you made it this far and you want to apply, here are a few things common to successful applications:
- Let us know why you want to join us.
- Tell us what you are good at and how you can help here (referring to our tasks)
- Additionally to your ideal time, also mention any flexibility and general travel plans,
Please mention the word Dumbledore so we know you have read the whole profile.
We have a video call ( we use Signal app ) with everyone to clarify everything beforehand.
Hope to see you soon!

Emma stayed with us for more then two moths, extending her initial stay, which turned our great for everyone. Emma is quietly efficient and very resourceful. She did various tasks, in some she learned quickly and then worked efficiently and in others she just shone. If you can get her to do design work, good for you.

Our time here was something different from what we've experienced so far. We were welcomed with open arms and enjoyed our time in this big community center. It has been really impressive how much the place has changed, even in the three weeks we were there. Everyone was working hard and it was easy to get along with each other. The only thing we… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (Nikita)

We possibly did not have the amount of social activities he was looking for, but he made the best of his time.
His communication with us and others was usually to the point, which could possibly be… read more

Vom Workawayer (Nikita) für Host
I've spent 2 weeks here in October. The hospital building is located near a lake, forest, and some grass fields. In the free time there are options of exploring the hospital, biking to the nearest city, or spending time outside e.g. picking mushrooms. The food at that place is strictly non-meat, but there is a wide variety of products offered… read more
