My first experience with Worldpackers was really enjoyable! The family is so friendly and I immediately felt comfortable in their home. Also at school everybody welcomed me with a big smile and I became involved a lot. Everyday was so much fun! During my free time I could explore klaten, visiting its cafes and the nearby attractions and got to know their culture and religion. I am really grateful for this the school can recommend :)

I had a really great time in Klaten! Everyone was so kind, helpful and polite. the school at E-Fun was such a nice and unique experience. The staff and the students were always friendly and welcomed me with a smile. So did Ovick and his family, I always felt comfortable. Another volunteer was there at the same time, but unfortunately she constantly spread a bad vibe and energy. She left already after two days.

I can't thank enough host Ovick, his family and all teachers and staff at E-Fun for welcoming me as a part of family / team! Interacting with students was so much fun and E-Fun is always fulfilled with laughter and positive energy. In fact I was the one learnt a lot from them. Such a treasury experience! Ovick is the most generous person I've ever met. Not only running E-Fun, but also he organizes free food distribution to unprivileged people in the community. I had a chance to join this activity and was very impressed to know how much he cares his community to make it a better place.

It was my first experience on worldpackers & it was great! Ovick, his family and colleagues were so nice, connective and welcoming 🥰 I loved the whole experience from the first day to the last, we had really good conversations about everything and he was really flexible to make my stay as comfortable as possible! The school experience was also amazing because the range of different students (elementary school, high school, kindergarten teachers). It would have been nice to have more classes but at my time sadly it was not possible. So I had the morning with his kids or for myself. Thank you🙏

I loved my time with E-Fun. Ovick is amazing and I feel so lucky to have learned from him. I was worried about some of the public speaking and Ovick was incredibly accommodating and understanding to what I was able to do, which I really appreciated. I loved getting to know his family and Klaten and the teachers and students at E-Fun. I hope to visit again someday! If anyone has any questions about the experience, please feel free to reach out :)
