My experience at Buddha forest was a special one. I want to thank all the sunims for their patience and guidance. It wasn't all easy but I had the opportunity to discover new parts of myself and challenge myself in only two weeks. I found the work to often be the largest part of a volunteer's days. If this volunteership interests you, I'd personally recommend it most to people who have prior experience with the Center, as I think they would get most out of their stay. The accommodations were very nice, and the food was delicious and healthy. What a beautiful place filled with kind souls.

Living in the Monastery was an amazing experience. The location is perfect for connecting with nature, the Center hiking. The work with the Sunims was not difficult. I did gardening, farming, cleaning, washing, and painting. The food is amazing and friendly with vegetarians. I learned so much about volunteers, sunims and local people. If you want to live and practice the Center, you really want to go there.

Tania is a very capable, competent, and kind-hearted person. She always encourages and inspires others. Working with her is highly motivating, and everyone likes her. We are very grateful for Tania; she is truly an excellent leader and a wonderful team member. Humble, cheerful, and capable.

The time that I spent here was precious and well needed for me. People here can really turn off their busy life for the time being and just learn and enjoy the lifestyle, the nature, the work and food and the mindfullness. I would come back anytime without question, I appreciate the 3 weeks that I spent here. The seunims were the best.

My time at the Buddha Forest Templestay was incredible. The staff were very patient, kind, giving, and thoughtful to volunteers. I felt valued as both a volunteer and human being. The day to day responsibilities varied, which for someone who embraces change, kept you on your toes in the best kind of way. With the myriad tasks of farming/landscaping, housekeeping, or kitchen prep ensured that there was never a dull moment. Lodging accommodations are also very generous with private rooms and very clean facilities. I would always recommend opportunities here, and wish I could have stayed longer!

I enjoyed my stay in the Center. All of the monks are very welcoming and kind. The place is remote, which gives the better opportunity to relax and calm down. It's 30~40 minutes to a bus stop (by walking) that takes you to the city (40 minutes). The food was delicious, and hours of work were respected. Many international and Korean volunteers. Sometimes the work can be a bit repetitive and tiring, but I felt it helped me to be more present in the moment. The surroundings are beautiful.

Such a nice place. There are a lot of different activities to do, so you won't get boring doing everyday the same. And always looking at an amazing landscape. We also had some Korean lessons (thanks Juliette!) For the food I have no words, honestly exceed my expectations. It's mainly without meat, but so delicious and many options. I'll keep the apple jam in my heart forever 🥹🍎

Well I don't have words o describe this experience. First of all I'm grateful with the monks and sunims to gave me this opportunity. We live, work, eat and meditate together. It's a peaceful place surrounded by nature with a good view of the mountains and definitely here you will change your habits for a good habits you gonna sleep early, wake up early, eat healthy, physical activities, the Center etc. The sunims are always in a good mood happy smiling and they show you appreciation of your work and your time here. It's an experience that definitely I recommend it to anyone.

We feel very fortunate for his joining us; the dormitory building of the meditation center has been revitalized because of his talents. His personality is so calm, elegant, and empathetic. He always expresses progress in work with humility and respect. He possesses many skills and talents. But what is even more impressive is his attitude towards work, which is as excellent as his skills. Volunteers like him are rare, demonstrating outstanding performance in both ability and character. Everyone at the meditation center loves him not only his talents but also his personality.
