“The work at Lehtimäen opisto has given me so much more than I’d hoped for. I was hoping for fulfilling work, yes, but I hadn’t expected it to give me so much joy. The people (students and staff members) are just lovely and the horses so cute. Plus there is an affectionate stable cat!” – Yara

“This experience helped me change my perspective on so many things, it made me grow more as a person, become more grateful and more considerate.” – Farah, volunteer at Otavan opisto

“During my project I’ve made a lot of experiences, I got to know so many different people and made friends all around Europe; but more important I stepped out of my comfort zone and learned more about myself and what I would like to do in the future!

🍀 Those six months will forever have an important place in my memories. I think it’s an amazing experience to do, especially if you have more clear ideas about who you are and what you would like to do!” – Nicole, volunteer at Maailmanvaihto
