This is my first trip on WP as well as my first time outside of America. Everything really lined up here because my goals were to meet wonderful souls, teach boxing/learn martial arts, and experience Korean the coliving. What I got was so much more, I've fallen in love with the wonderful people in our dorm. No matter how long I knew them, the dorm was like a family. . The work itself is very easy, and Andy is great about switching your shift if needed. The flexible scheduling and lovely people are amazing. The dorm isn't perfect, but it's home.

LanCul was an amazing volunteer opportunity. While the dorms can be improved, the coliving was friendly and made the place a home.

An incredible experience. It was my first the coliving so far away and I enjoyed it very much. Korea is a beautiful country and the people there are very nice, I was able to explore a lot of Busan and Seoul. The work has been very fun, very interesting to meet the Korean students, learn from them and their culture. I made many Korean friends and from many other countries. My friendship with the other volunteers and the coexistence have been great. The person in charge of the coliving, Andy, is very kind and attentive to everything, if something happens he is there helping. Thank you very much

My experience here was good! I really liked all the other volunteers. Work was very easy and fun. Our host was very flexible and understanding with our schedules. The dorm is a bit run down, and while we had heating in our bedrooms the other areas did not, which got quite cold during winter. But overall it was a great way to see Busan.

Lancul proved the ideal welcoming hub, with Andy allowing time for rich English conversations with locals in my 3-hours every weekday. Between enlightening talks, I forged bonds with vibrant students and elders, gaining an insight into daily Korean life the coliving. The dorm's lively atmosphere near the PNU area enabled intriguing discoveries. When not the coliving, I embraced chances to visit various attractions with new friends. This enriching experience was defined by lasting bonds I built across ages and backgrounds. I eagerly await returning to this community that now feels like home.

I loved my experience at Lzone Café!! I'm really happy as it was my first worldpackers experience. Andy was really welcoming and flexible as well. I got the chance to meet some great people, both volunteers and students. I also had some free time to visit other places in South Korea. If I get the chance, I would love to come back!

I had an amazing experience. The dorm is really nice, could be cleaner but all the pros definitely beat the cons. The job is easy and enjoyable, it allows you to meet so many interesting people and to make friends with the locals. The other volunteers were also very nice to hang out with and they never made me feel lonely. And last but not least, Busan is a beautiful city and the neighborhood where the dorm is located is a lovely place. Would recommend 100%

I had such an amazing time the coliving, the work is typically three hours a day Monday to Friday. This left a lot of free time to travel around Busan. Andy was really flexible with our times and this helped me travel to Jeonju on the weekend. You get to have one on one conversations with locals and build really beautiful friendships in the community, I loved the chance to talk to Korean people from all walks of life!
