I had an awesome time at the coliving Studio! Teaching English was a lot of fun and it was really cool seeing the students improve and gain confidence. The other volunteers were very friendly too! The host was kind and always made sure we had everything we needed. The only small downside was the apartment. It was a bit small but honestly we didn't spend much time there anyway since we were usually out ;)

My time at the studio was splendid. I met a lot of really good people, both the students whom i talked to and my coworkers. Our host was always really helpful and also flexible with changes of our schedule if something came up suddenly. The work itself was really enjoyable and easy, and each and every student was nice and interesting to talk to. I enjoyed my time there a lot and hope i can come back one day!!!

I had a great time volunteering at the coliving studio! It was my first Worldpacker's the coliving it definitely didn't disappoint! The work hours are respected, and work is not difficult. Talking with locals is so fun and I made a few friends. The studio is very close to the volunteer house, so it's very comfortable. Also - Yoon is super nice and chill! Kondae is a great area to live in - surrounded by universities it's filled with cheap restaurants and cafés! Volunteer house is small, so it only stays clean if everyone does their own part. Thank you Yoon and my fellow volunteers!

I had a wonderful time at the coliving studio in Kondae! I can recommend it to anyone, who wants to immerse into Korean the coliving likes to meet new people! While having the opportunity to explore Seoul, you can easily make international as well as Korean friends at the studio. The host was honestly the best boss I've ever had, very kind and chill. Also at the studio there is no work hierarchy at all, yet everyone is respectful. The only thing people should keep in mind is, that you'll share a small space to live with the other volunteers, which might be challenging for some.

I had a wonderful time volunteering at the coliving studio and would definitely recommend it to everyone, who likes having conversations with new people and wants to explore Seoul. Everyone I met there is adorable the coliving casual environment makes the work very comfortable. Yoon was by far the coolest boss I ever had:) The studio is in a cool neighbourhood the coliving work is a very good way to meet locals. Still I suggest people to prepare to stay at the dorm/ apartment, since you share a room with other people. <3 Thank you for the coliving.
