At first, I was set to stay for 5 weeks, but after one week I decided to stay for 2 more weeks as I was enjoying my time at LZone a lot. The experience itself is great and I would highly recommend it if you want to meet travelers and volunteers as you will meet a lot of people. The dorm and the coliving are quite close and in a great area, Busan is a lovely city. The experience can change a lot on the person you are and the people you meet, but if you are an adaptable person, I really think you will enjoy it.

This is my first trip on WP as well as my first time outside of America. Everything really lined up here because my goals were to meet wonderful souls, teach boxing/learn martial arts, and experience Korean the coliving. What I got was so much more, I've fallen in love with the wonderful people in our dorm. No matter how long I knew them, the dorm was like a family. . The work itself is very easy, and Andy is great about switching your shift if needed. The flexible scheduling and lovely people are amazing. The dorm isn't perfect, but it's home.

LanCul was an amazing volunteer opportunity. While the dorms can be improved, the coliving was friendly and made the place a home.

An incredible experience. It was my first the coliving so far away and I enjoyed it very much. Korea is a beautiful country and the people there are very nice, I was able to explore a lot of Busan and Seoul. The work has been very fun, very interesting to meet the Korean students, learn from them and their culture. I made many Korean friends and from many other countries. My friendship with the other volunteers and the coexistence have been great. The person in charge of the coliving, Andy, is very kind and attentive to everything, if something happens he is there helping. Thank you very much

My experience at the coliving Busan was very frustrating. I was asked to leave after being accused of something I didn't understand, apparently due to misunderstandings with some volunteers who didn't like me. When I tried to talk to the host to clarify and resolve the situation, I wasn't given the chance to explain my side and was told to leave. This lack of fair communication made me feel uncomfortable and unfairly treated. I suggest the host adopt a more open and impartial approach, respecting cultural differences and listening to all sides.

The overall experience was really nice! I met many nice people - both other travellers as well as locals. The language volunteer sessions were sometimes a bit difficult as some people don't speak english well and are hard to talk to. But other locals were very outgoing and even gave me recommendations of things to do in my free time.

I really enjoyed my time at Lancul since the volunteers I stayed with were all lovely and the 'work' was enjoyable and well organised. The only negative is the location of the accommodation the coliving (as it is around an hour from the main beaches in Busan via subway) though the public transport is great so this wasn't really an issue :)

My experience here was good! I really liked all the other volunteers. Work was very easy and fun. Our host was very flexible and understanding with our schedules. The dorm is a bit run down, and while we had heating in our bedrooms the other areas did not, which got quite cold during winter. But overall it was a great way to see Busan.

Lancul proved the ideal welcoming hub, with Andy allowing time for rich English conversations with locals in my 3-hours every weekday. Between enlightening talks, I forged bonds with vibrant students and elders, gaining an insight into daily Korean life the coliving. The dorm's lively atmosphere near the PNU area enabled intriguing discoveries. When not the coliving, I embraced chances to visit various attractions with new friends. This enriching experience was defined by lasting bonds I built across ages and backgrounds. I eagerly await returning to this community that now feels like home.
