Volunteering at the coliving was an exceptional and immersive experience I highly recommend for anyone! Everyone here, the managers, other volunteers, and people we talk to at the coliving, are all extremely welcoming, kind, cool and amazing people that are easy and fun to work and live with. I learnt a lot from everyone I met in this experience, not just about Korean culture, but different cultures around the world and different occupations! There was also great amount of time for me to do exploring on my own, and with the other volunteers! The accomodation is also cozy, and has good location!

Yi, by far the nicest person we had at the Elounge with us! We loved your vibe and energy, your jokes and every moment we spent with you! You did an amazing job at the cafe, students loved you and we miss your presence at home too! We hope we can have you back somewhen in the future! Until then we wish you the best! Stay safe and happy, as always! <3

The working hours are in the afternoon and evening. Overall a good experience with local people, they recommend places and food to eat to enjoy your days in South Korea and also made some friends. On the other hand, the management in the house wasn't that clear and the other volunteers explained to me the house chores and how everything works.

My time at the coliving was really great! The working hours are a dream if you are used to work a fulltime job. You have a lot of free time to explore the city and there are so many activities and events you can see/go to. All in all a wonderful experience. I didn't want to go and would definitely do it again!

I had lots of fun in Korea and would definitely repeat the experience. However, there are a couple details definitely worth taking into account; even though the coliving respected every single one of the commitments they made, I didn't even get to meet them in person, and all of the explanations regarding the house and the workflow had to be done by the volunteers. They gave the cell phone just in case, though. They were nice and we had a great time, but group activities were also not as common a thing as I would have expected Besides that, mostly everything was good. Feel free to ask me anything.

Working at the coliving was nice. There is a well organized schedule and the studio is big and it is an easy and pleasant job most of the times. I really enjoyed that part. At the accomodation sometimes I could feel some tension between the volunteers and at times it was hard to feel truly welcomed. Living together with others can be tough sometimes but this depends on other volunteers. Overall it was a good experience and the lounge and apartment are situated in one of the best areas! Recommended if you are passionate about helping others and teaching English and if you want to explore Seoul!

I had a fun and enjoyable experience with the team at the coliving! Sadly it was cutt short due to other reasons but I would recommend it for people looking to stay in Seoul and meet new people.

Had a great experience at the coliving Café. Really enjoyed my time, talking with locals. The apartment is also well located and has a large living room which allow space for everyone, I did not feel too crowded. When you live in a community, it always requires all its member to be respectful among each other and follow basic common rules so that everybody can live worries free, no noise late at night, no outside person in the apartment, no smoking inside etc. and even more important be diligent on each member given house chores for the week. I felt really comfortable at the living space and café

Good day! My time at the community was without a doubt a groovy experience! It was a unique way to really engulf yourself into the Korean culture, with the opportunity to talk to locals one on one, enjoy great food, sight see, have one too many Sojus and get to live with a great community of foreigners too. I recommend this experience to all.

I had a great time in Seoul with this collaboration! It felt like a home away from home, and everyone interacted like family. Work was easy, and the host was very flexible in helping me take days off for exploration! This is still a fairly new business, so they are working out some kinks; communication with volunteers in regards to new rules or requests in the living situation, and training newcomers could be improved, but everything is easy to learn, and everyone is willing to help if asked.
