E-Fun's family (Klaten) truly feels like home. The environment is warm, happy, and deeply supportive—surrounded by amazing teachers who care deeply about their students and each other. Mr. Ovick's work is inspiring. He's created more than just a school; it's a community grounded in learning, culture, and compassion. I feel lucky to have witnessed his passion in action. From making batik to learning at Yoso Farm, the educational activities are rich, hands-on, and inspiring. I'm truly grateful for this experience, and E-Fun will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for everything!

E-Fun is a special school, so fun and welcoming! I had the best time playing with the kids and enjoyed talking to the older students. The teachers are really passionate, always with a smile! Klaten has a deep sense of community. We hiked, made bakpia and batik, and the meal sharing with the homeless was meaningful. Staying with Ovick, Enggar, Oma, Chika, Sophia, Elmeera and the other volunteer, Soraya, has been wonderful. I laughed and learned a lot. Oma's cooking is top! Ovick and Enggar are kind, inspiring people with big hearts and a beautiful vision. Visit E-Fun, you won't regret it 🫶

I had an incredible experience helping assist teachers at E-Fun! Everyone was so incredibly welcoming, genuinely wanted to get to know you, and made you feel apart of the family. Additionally, saying with Ovick's family was an absolutely dream. The food that Oma made everyday for us was incredible and the accommodation had everything you needed. Mrs.Enggar let me borrow a hijjab so I could visit the beautiful mosque near their house and they invited me to take part in Ede. There is plenty of free time to explore Klaten or even go to Yogyakarta or Solo! Amazing the school I hope to be back!

Volunteering at EFun in Klaten was incredible! The teachers were so kind and welcoming, and the students were super motivated to learn. Staying with Ovick's family made it even more special — Oma's cooking is amazing, the kids are adorable, and Enggar and Ovick are the sweetest, most helpful hosts. I felt like part of the family and it was so hard to leave. Truly an unforgettable experience! ♥️

I'm happy that I got to experience a little bit of life in Klaten like taking part in a Batik workshop. The host was very kind and has a very sweet family, I like how flexible the host was with working days at the school. The staff at the school were very cheerful and kind.

This was my first world-packers, Ovick and his family was amazing, met lots of friends . the teachers were very responsible and incredible. I felt really inspired. It's a place that makes you want to go again, and they are really free about the time and giving me the opportunity to take some days off to go travel the country !

Everything was incredibly amazing. I felt as a part of the family as soon as I stepped into Ovick's home. The kids, the teachers, everyone was heartwarming and I felt so loved. This was a once in a lifetime experience that changed me forever, thank you all for everything. I hope to come back one day just to say hello, I feel like I have a second home away from home. Thank you for all the laugh, love and time shared together, I will treasure it forever.

My first Worldpackers experience was unforgettable, all thanks to Ovick, his family, and Efun. I was nervous about traveling, but the moment I arrived, the warm smiles of the little kids instantly made me feel at home. They went above and beyond to take me to different places and immerse me in the local culture. Efun, the school, was also an amazing place filled with positive energy, where I formed deep connections with the teachers and students. I unexpectedly discovered my love for the school working with kids here, making it even harder to leave. Thank you for everything!

I was nervous upon arriving in Klaten, but the family welcomed me warmly and I felt at home. The school staff and students are committed to learning English, which made the school a smooth experience. Within days I felt like an important part of their team. The only downside for me was the food - while it was always there, some days it was only one option, and it wasn't kept in the most sanitary conditions. So if you're particular about this, maybe it's something to consider. Overall, this experience opened my mind to Indonesian culture and its lovely people, so I highly recommend it!
