This was the best voluntary work that I could ever ask for. Everything was perfect from my first day in Seoul to my last one. The work was easy and not tiring at all, we had enough days off to visit the city and the vibe was immaculate. Hugh always made sure that everything we needed was provided to us and Lia did an amazing job teaching us how do to the tasks correctly. They are both the sweetest and most caring persons ever. They made me feel at home and I can never thank them enough for everything that they did to us. I'll definitely come back next year !! Thank you the guest house

Volunteering here was an amazing first experience! The work was fair, not too tiring (except for the stairs, haha), and the bosses were fantastic, always kind and supportive. Lia runs a great system, staying practical and motivating even when mistakes happen. I had plenty of free time to explore South Korea and meet incredible people, both at the hostel and outside. I'm definitely coming back next year! Thank you so much, Hugh and Lia, for your kindness and hospitality. I look forward to helping improve the guesthouse with you!

I can't thank Lia and Hugh enough for this experience. This has been one of the best volunteer I've ever done. The bosses are so great, there is a supportive community and you feel always respected and motivated. The guesthouse is close to public transportation and you can be in the touristy spots in no time. The tasks are not hard and the schedule is pretty flexible. Lia and Hugh give you a dedicated training so you know perfectly what to do, the communication is really clear and they are always open to listen. Lia and Hugh really do their best to welcome you at the guesthouse ❤️

It was a good experience, if you want to stay in Seoul for a long term it's a good option. You work a little bit every morning and you can enjoy the city after that~
