The Experience

We provide an opportunity for both travelers and the locals here in Seoul to get together, meet new people, learn different culture, and basically make awesome friends. The idea is to connect people from many different parts of the world, have them experience deeper aspects of Korean culture, get a feel of what it is really like to live amongst Koreans, not as a visitor, but as a part of us, one of us.

It was my first Worldpackers experience and it was great. The Managers were welcoming and friendly. The work wasn't difficult at all, the schedule was convenient. The accommodation was also Ok, because during my stay the place was clean and not too crowded. And the location is perfect!! It should be said, that dorm has some disadvantages, but personally for me they are not that significant. For me everything was amazing, mostly because of all wonderful people I met during my stay:) I am very thankful for this experience. Hope I will come back !
