  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We are surrounded by the beautiful Finnish nature and also the Baltic Sea is not far away, so there are a lot possibilities for outdoor sports (hiking or skiing, swimming, fishing, biking, ...).

  Help

  There is a lot to do, but already a support with the daily stable work and gladly also training (mainly ground work) with our horses would help us a lot. We also want to do some work on our house and stable, so if you can handle a paintbrush, saw and hammer, you are very welcome.
