The Experience

This program's mainly focused on practicing speaking English and exchanging culture among local Koreans and also with volunteers from overseas. I believe that the best way to fully explore a certain country or a city is to actually bond and build a friendship with locals and that is what we locals here are excited to do!! We are trying to make an environment where everybody can join the conversation.

Being there was an amazing experience, and I would definitely come back as many times as I could. All the staff is amazing and the apartment where we stand he's really good at next to the train station where we can go to anywhere basically. When I go back to Korea, I'll definitely stay there again.

I loved my experience at the coliving! The work was easy and enjoyable. I had some great conversations with locals, so it didn't necessarily feel like work at all. The location of the language the coliving and the accomodation are great and pretty close to each other. All that being said, what I loved most about this experience is that I got to meet so many great people!

Today my first experience with worldpackers just ended and I couldn't be happier that my first experience was with the coliving. I'm extremely grateful for this experience that put me to the test and allowed me to visit an incredible city like seoul and meet so many local people. Coming back home after an experience like this is difficult, next time I'll stay longer it was an incredible experience🫶🏻 Thank you all💖

I spent 2 months at the coliving in Seoul. The program was a great experience for what it provides! The apartment and the coliving are located conveniently, the work is not difficult, and it is a great opportunity for both teaching English and meeting Korean people. You'll also get to work with some amazing international travelers. I met some really great people here that helped change my perspective on things and shape my future. If you're looking for a unique way to experience life in Seoul, I would definitely recommend this place.

The experience is perfect to have the chance to meet locals and share with them good conversations, because at the coliving you are just free to talk about everything. The apartment was also nice and near the café
