We bought an historical sanatorium in 2020 to create Hub Feenix, a space where life, creativity, joy, wellbeing and continuous learning can flourish. In this huge building (15 000 m²), located in the middle of pine forests, we open our doors to volunteers, artists, visitors, digital nomads, and people from all around the world and all backgrounds. We have artists studios, yoga studios, a concert hall, lots of different workshops spaces, accommodation, etc.
Hub Feenix is a perpetual work in progress and we have a lot of ideas to keep making it a safe, beautiful, healing and unique place.
Everything we do is aligned with our values of love, respect, honesty, giving and serving life. We always cultivate gratitude, self-development, courage, renewal, and spirituality, while practicing presence, non-violence in both actions and words, and working with nature.

👑 Finland has been crowned the happiest country in the world multiple times. This is based on various indicators that take into consideration the work – life balance, the low corruption, the safety, the good gender equality and most importantly the very strong values of the population.
🌲Finland is a very peaceful and beautiful country, made of lush green forests and deep blue lakes. The vast regions of unspoilt nature, vibrant cities, and charming little towns will steal your heart and take your breath away. When the snow shows up… you’re in Winter Wonderland! And should we even talk about the magical aurora borealis?
⭐ Finland is a Schengen Zone member state, and is part of the European Union, which can make it easier for you as you might not need a visa, depending on your country of origin.
🛜 This country has great cities for remote workers with co-working spaces and nice coffee shops with a great broadband download speed and the wide free public Wi-Fi coverage. But you also have the possibility to settle down more in the countryside, like at Hub Feenix, without giving up on that.
💂 The official languages are Finnish and Swedish, but English is widely and well-spoken all around the country, making it very easy to live and travel everywhere.
💶 Euros (€) is the official currency; credit and debit cards are also widely accepted across the country, and you will have easy access to banks and ATMs.
💰 The main reason why digital nomads don’t always consider Finland is the cost of living. It’s true that it’s more expensive than many Asian countries for example.
But this is why Hub Feenix is an amazing option for you, prices are lower than in big cities, and there are many things you can do on a low budget, or even for free.
