The Experience

We provide an opportunity for both travelers and the locals here in Daejeon 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.s.

An AMAZING experience in Korea!
Time schedule is flexible, you can ask for specific days off, there's PLENTY of time to get to know Daejeon and surrounding, a truly cultural immersing experience.
The apartment for accommodation is ok, with all basic needs covered and close to the job place.
This is my 7th volunteer program in WP, but the most different, enriching and fun so far! Thank you Russell & co. for choosing me, hope to come back with more time to stay much longer!
See you soon.

I had an amazing experience at the Language Studio in Daejeon! The town is cute, and the location is great for traveling around South Korea. The job is fun and interesting. I loved getting to know the students, hearing their stories and plans, and discussing cultural differences. I learned so much and even made good the coliving! The accommodation has everything you need, and the food provided helps you save money. Last but not least, Russel is amazing and very considerate, I'm going to miss his “hello/hi” when we arrive at work . I highly recommend this experience and hope to be back next year!

I had a great time volunteering in Daejeon! It was so interesting to meet so many different people-- both locals and international travelers. There was plenty of time to explore Daejeon and nearby cities, too (definitely visit Jeonju). Thanks, Russel!

This experience became so much more than just volunteering, I met wonderful people, shared meaningful conversations, learned so much, and made memories that I know I’ll carry with me for a long time.

Russel is genuinely a great host, and I’m really grateful that I got the chance to be part of this experience. If you’re thinking about applying, I definitely recommend giving it a try!
