My experience in Daejeon was absolutely lovely. Russel was a fantastic host: he was kind, attentive, and made sure to check in if there was anything we ever needed. The language studio was exactly what I hoped for, allowing me to get to know locals and learn about South Korean culture. I have made close friends with the other volunteers as well as the patrons that I spoke to at the studio. I'm grateful for the opportunity I was given to learn and expand my the guest house knowledge of South Korea through this experience.

I had a blast for my fist time abroad! Russel is an amazing host. He made sure that we are confortable during our stay. The work that we have to do isn't hard. It's very engaging and allowed me to learn a lot and have very interesting conversations. Daejeon is the perfect city for people with little travel experience like myself. You can enjoy the city convenience or explore the nature close by. On top of it all, I've meet amazing volunteers which become friends ! I highly recommend this place.

Russel thank you so much for everything!! I highly recommend this place to people that want to have good volunteering experience in korea. Russel took good care of all volunteers and was really nice. I enjoyed talking with koreans on different topics and share life experiences. Deajeon is quite but not boring, I went to festivals and enjoyed the beautiful nature around Deajeon

This was my first time volunteering with worldpackers and I absolutely recommend this program. Russell is such a nice host and tries to take care of you as best as he can. You could always contact him if you had a problem or needed help with anything. The work you have to do, is also great! I loved talking to all the locals and learning about the differences between our cultures. I had the pleasure to get to know some regulars even better so I looked forward to talking with them again. The appartement is modest but has everything you need. Thank you for the wonderfull experience!!

I had such an amazing and unforgettable month in Daejeon and couldn't have asked for a better first volunteering experience! Russell was very kind and hospitable and always made sure we were comfortable and had our weekly dose of Nutella! Could not have asked for a better host. I loved having the chance to engage with all the locals at the language studio and share stories, culture and lots of laughter. Daejeon is a very quiet city so if you're looking for a time out from the craziness of the big cities then this is definitely for you! I loved all my roomies as well. Highly recommend!!

Volunteering at the language studio in Daejeon was one the best decision I made this year! Russell is incredibly kind and considerate - he was always making sure us volunteers had anything we needed, and would go out of his way to accommodate different wants and needs, even dropping us off some mackgeolli for our late night chats. The work itself is incredibly cruisy, fun and interesting. You meet all sorts of people and everyone was very kind and had so much to share. Such a great way to see and learn more about South Korea. Would 10/10 recommend, thank you Russell! .

I loved my time in Daejeon with Russell and the team here. Russell is so sweet and a genuine person. The work is easy if you are comfortable talking to new people, literally just having a chat with locals. Everyone was very nice and open, so it was a fascinating experience to get a better understanding of life and values in Daejeon and get the opportunity to talk to people I wouldn't have otherwise. Daejeon is a quiet, peaceful city, and while I enjoyed it, it may not be for everyone. Thank you so much Russell, I had an amazing time.

I absolutely loved my short stay in Daejeon! This was my first volunteering experience and Russell was the best host I could have asked for! He is super kind and always made sure we felt comfortable. The work is extremely easy and it is so interesting to hear more about how the locals live. Daejeon itself is a lot calmer than Seoul for example but there are great hikes close by for the days off. Because we were lots of volunteers we only had to work 3/4days per week so even multi day trips are easily possible. I can only recommend this experience!

I had an amazing experience volunteering with this program! The host Russell was incredibly helpful, friendly and always made sure I felt comfortable throughout. As one of my first volunteer opportunities, it was a fantastic way to help locals practice English through the guest house. I loved meeting different people, including other volunteers as well, hearing their stories, and immersing myself in a calm, relaxing city. Overall, I highly recommend this program and would gladly do it again!

Had an amazing time even though I was only there for a short time. Met so many amazing people and had a lot of fun conversations with the locals. The people I lived with were amazing and Russel was truly an awesome and sweet guy. We were 8 people in the apartment at some point and it gets crowded especially with only one bathroom, but you get used to it quite quickly:)
