Yoonji is a wonderful host. She is always happy to share all kinds of event information, and she also takes the initiative to invite volunteers and guests on outings together, which feels incredibly heartwarming. The work here is clearly arranged and not overly tiring. After communicating fully with Yoonji, you will find she is as thoughtful as she can be and always ready to offer help! As long as you respect the house rules, you will have a friendly and pleasant stay. This is my first work-exchange experience. I hope I can come back to the guest house sometime in the future!

Yoonji was very welcoming, she had sent very detailed instructions about what to do and I could ask her anytime.
I am a maximalist, so for me cleaning took more than 2 hours usually, but the tasks were nice and enjoyable:)
She also sent me lots of niche recommendations on what to do in Seoul

Kamsahamnida, Bueno Day, for the 20-day volunteer experience! :)
I met new people, learned new things, and collected a lot of stories along the way (and also a lot of skincare freebies haha 😂).
Thanks for the experience! Next stop: another adventure. ✨

I had a wonderful time at Bueno Day and Yoonji is a great host, we had great chats and the atmosphere of her house really reminded me more of like living in a home with friends. You get to meet other friendly travelers. I even went out with Yoonji and other guests for dinner and drinks a couple of times :) the work is fairly easy, the tasks are well explained and it usually doesn't take too long :) So all in all I had a wonderful experience and maybe I'll get to stay with Yoonji again some time.

That was my first hostel volunteer experience and i 100% can recommend it! Tasks were clear and predictable; that was easy to follow all the instructions. Communication was pleasant and if we had any challenging situations during the work we always solved it with the humor and respect. Yoonji always shared with me some cool free events, so i felt integrated into the Seouls city life. Thank you so much for this experience, i'd be happy to come again❤️

I really enjoyed my time at BuenoDay. The schedule was perfect for me to explore the city and also felt useful at work. It was a great opportunity to connect with international travelers and get to know their culture. The daily tasks were as discussed and well summarized in a document. Yoonji gave a lot of insight of the local culture and suggested programs in the city.

Yoonji was my first Worldpackers host, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She made Seoul feel like home, always keeping me updated about events and great places to visit. The tasks were clear and I usually finished early, giving me plenty of time to discover the city and its surroundings. I also had the chance to meet other international travellers and local guests, which made exploring Seoul even better. I definitely recommend!

I had a great 1st time WP experience thanks to Yoonji & the guest house. It was pleasant and rewarding to learn new things, meet international travelers and to have great time w/ Yoonji and guests, from engaging chats at the living room to walks or meals around Seoul. Yoonji is flexible and gives you all space/autonomy needed, no micromanagement. She will provide all the basics info for activities at your arrival and details you learn on the job as you go. She takes extra efforts to provide info on things to do, places to visit or eat and make sure people feel at home. I really appreciated it :)

The second experience in Bueno Day was great. I came back because Yoonji invited me to host her guest while she was abroad for work. I hope this is just a start to our long and fruitful relationship.

I'm home here and it is thanks to Yoonji. From the beginning, she made me feel like I belonged, walked me through the local market, the nearby park, shared language tips, cultural insights, and even places to explore that matched my personality. But what really stayed with me was a small, quiet moment: I had mentioned that I left bags of American cookies out of my luggage and was kind of regretting it. A little later, she sent me the location of a place nearby where I could I could get cookies. That gesture may seem small, but it says everything about her. She listens. She notices. She cares.
