    Descripción

    Murjek is a small village close to the Arctic Circle, conveniently situated on the main railway line between Stockholm and Narvik. From here you can take a bus (45 minutes) to Jokkmokk, the gateway to the mountains, or travel by bus or train (90 minutes) to Luleå on the coast. About 60 people live here now. It's a quiet and peaceful place in the middle of Lapland. People live close to nature here: you can go fishing, hiking or cycling in the summer time, in the autumn you can pick berries and mushrooms, while in the winter you can go skiing or do ice fishing.
    The beautiful old building in the centre of the village is a meeting place for the locals and people from the surrounding villages. In the building we have a library and a museum showing the history of the village and the building.
    Our association is a non-profit-association and unfortenately we can´t offer any wages but we can offer you a nice place to stay in, friendly people, local cuisine and a lot of recreation time.

    Own room in the hostel and lunch together with the lunch guests. Dinner and breakfast must be prepared by yourself, but the local association buys all the food.

    Algo más...

    Important: we prefer to have a couple or two friends, because in the evenings and mostly after work there will be nobody around the house. It´s good if one of you speaks basic Swedish, because those people who can speak english or german are not always around.
    You can reach Murjek by train, directly from Stockholm.
