The Experience

Hi travelers I am Kaze. who fall in love with travel. yes, I am one of you guys. I made a place for backpackers in Gyeong-Ju in South Korea. Name is Doobaki. Gyeong-Ju is historic city where calm and cozy , peaceful place. I rode my motorcycle around this small planet. At that time, I thought of making a hostel where all travelers relax like home. And I did it.I can't handle this alone.Come to my house and let's make a nice and beautiful place .

My two months at the hostel were super nice! The tasks are clear and not hard, and schedule is made in a way that gives you a plenty of time for yourself. The guesthouse itself is placed in the center of downtown, by walking distance to all major historical attractions of Gyeongju, and two traditional markets on both ends of the main street. There is plenty of space in the guesthouse to enjoy it, and Kaze is making sure we always have a lot of food ☺️ It really felt like home away from home ;) I will definitely go back to the hostel :3
