I cannot express how grateful I'm that I could spend 2 weeks in the language studio. I had the best time in there and if I could I wish I would stay much longer. Russel is very caring person that is making sure everyone is having the best time and is able to fix every problem that comes in a way. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to enhance in local culture and make amazing friends along the way! I hope to come back one day. 😊

I recently had the privilege of participating in the program in Daejeon, South Korea, and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences of my life. The program was well-organized, offering a perfect balance between structured activities and free time. The accommodation is humble but cozy and you have provided basic food. The host Russell is really nice and caring. When you need something he is there to help. The conversations with Koreans were interesteing, especially if you love to communicate with people on different topics and you are interested in different culture.

I had a wonderful experience working in Daejeon, and would highly recommend this host to anyone. I felt immediately welcomed upon introduction and got to learn a lot through the admittedly short time I spent doing language the guest house. The accomodation was the best I had out of the three hostels I did while in South Korea, and the people I lived with were all such wonderful people. Doing language the guest house was an incredibly fun experience, as I met people from all walks of life, and formed meaningful connections along the way. Definitely recommend to anyone.

I had a great time in Daejeon. The working and cleaning schedules are made for every week, so all your responsibilities are known in advance. I enjoyed my stay and made Korean friends, which gives a much better local experience . The accommodation is very basic and small, and might be crowded when there are a lot of volunteers. I was lucky and had great people volunteering with me. I believe the experience is what you make it to be, and has great potential if you come with the right mindset. I would recommend this experience for anyone looking for a peaceful city and really great locals.

I had a wonderful time in Daejeon. The city is large and flat, perfect for long walks and the transportation is very efficient and comfortable. The work at the Studio is easy and pleasant, the students are very friendly, it's the perfect place if you are looking to interact with the locals and da the guest house. The accommodation is small with only one bathroom. The place provides ramen, bread, rice, eggs, fruits among others but they don't provide prepared food, you must make it, or if you want to buy it, there're so many delicious and cheap restaurants near to the accommodation.

A fantastic experience. The hours are adhered to as scheduled, and the work provides an invaluable opportunity to engage with the local residents. Daejeon is a beautiful, peaceful city surrounded by nature. Locals are really nice people. The accommodation is simple and small, but conveniently located very close to the work site. It's essential to respect the rules of community living to ensure a pleasant stay, as things can become quite difficult otherwise. The provided food is basic. I would undoubtedly volunteer again because the time spent here has been wonderful.

I had the best time ever in Daejeon. It definitely makes a difference that you meet people your age/vibe and I was so lucky to meet a handful of them. I would really recommend befriending the students at the Studio, because that's how I learned all the korean customs and korean culture in general. Russell is extremely caring and will help out with anything - don't be afraid to ask! I do think the apartment could do with a deep clean every once in a while, and also some better mattresses/blankets/pillows. The food is also just ingredients and ramen, but I am so thankful for the experience<33
