The Experience

I've been running a kind of cafe where Koreans and foreigners can meet up to learn about their own culture and experience while having a conversation in English. This cafe doesn't actually sell coffee or tea but we do provide them with a great chance to make local friends for those who are from all over the world. As we are a kind of language cafe, it is all spoken in English which means we need someone who can speak good English. Apply! :)

I've had a wonderful time at the project! Kayla and her husband are amazing people who truly cared about the volunteers and made sure we felt appreciated and well taken care of. I'm really going to miss the project and Cheongju, and I'd love to come back someday.

The Host and everyone met while in South Korea were amazing, everyone was super friendly, were able to answer every question I had, and I was able to meet every goal I had before moving there. Will definitely go again in the future!

Volunteering at the project was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed by the amazing hosts, Kayla and Brian, whose kindness and hospitality made my stay even more special. I had an incredible time meeting so many wonderful people from different backgrounds. The accommodation was fantastic, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it easy to settle in and enjoy my time there. The opportunity to volunteer here is something I would absolutely recommend to anyone.

When reading reviews I never know if they are telling the truth but please believe me when I say I absolutely loved working at the project. The work hour are very fair and easy with amazing students who are passionate about learning English and meeting people from around the world. The housing has everything you need. If you are traveling in a budget you can do so very easily or if not then there are lots of different restaurants and cafes really close to the house. Brian and Kayla are extremely nice and willing to help with anything if they can. I will definitely be coming back to the project xx
