It was a good experience, I felt comfortable every moment and had no issue. If you are an extrovert and like meeting new people, this is a good place for you.

I had such a great time volunteering here and would genuinely recommend it to anyone. There's so many opportunities to meet new people and everyone I worked with was so kind. Work is reasonable and the more volunteers they have the lighter the workload is. I also got to know Osaka really well while staying here - an unforgettable experience!

I loved it! This was my first ever WorldPacker's and I can't be more of grateful to all the staff and guests that made this experience. Between meeting all the new people, partying and having fun with the most amazing people ever I wouldn't even be able to pick what was the best thing I did there. I recommend this place for anyone who wants to meet a bunch of new people, be socially active and make the best memories. The work is definitely not too hard and really fair. I want to especially shout out Mika for being incredibly helpful and the sweetest person ! I'd go back in a heartbeat 💕
