Today my first experience with worldpackers just ended and I couldn't be happier that my first experience was with the coliving. I'm extremely grateful for this experience that put me to the test and allowed me to visit an incredible city like seoul and meet so many local people. Coming back home after an experience like this is difficult, next time I'll stay longer it was an incredible experience🫶🏻 Thank you all💖

I spent 2 months at the coliving in Seoul. The program was a great experience for what it provides! The apartment and the coliving are located conveniently, the work is not difficult, and it is a great opportunity for both teaching English and meeting Korean people. You'll also get to work with some amazing international travelers. I met some really great people here that helped change my perspective on things and shape my future. If you're looking for a unique way to experience life in Seoul, I would definitely recommend this place.

The experience is perfect to have the chance to meet locals and share with them good conversations, because at the coliving you are just free to talk about everything. The apartment was also nice and near the café

This experience was truly awesome. I had such a great time at the coliving, met so many people and made so many friends. The location of the place is epic! You also get to really understand Korean culture by speaking with the locals! Would recommend this to anyone who wants to live the Seoul life and make friends

I had a good experience at the coliving, although there were some issues. The work is easy and allows you to connect with locals. The accomodation has an excellent position and a cozy living room BUT 12 housemates is too many, especially considering there is only one bathroom-I think there shouldn't be more than 10. The cleaning shifts are well organized (the actual cleanliness depends on your housemates) BUT there is maintenance to be done (i.e. broken lights). Finally, I also wished the coliving team was a little more involved. If they could solve these issues, it would be really great!

The coliving was overall great. The work is super easy, just taking to locals. I learned a lot about Korea and Korean culture, which is something that otherwise can be a bit harder to do. Just 3/4 hours everyday, sometimes with free hours in between. just keep in mind that you'll be sharing an apartment with 12 people, and there's only one bathroom. everyone has different hygiene standards, and it's hard to find your own space in the apartment. But if you're flexible enough and want to experience this type of situation, this is the best place where you can go

Overall my stay at the coliving was okay. during my 2 weeks there I had the opportunity to meet awesome friends from all over the world, including locals. the managers are kind and the work itself is not hard! the apartment is okay, just be prepared to share a single bathroom and a open space kitchen with 13 people (overbooking can happen and a person had to sleep on the couch for 2 days). If I were to stay in seoul short term, I would choose the coliving again.

Talking to the coliving members is usually fun and engaging (sometimes the English speaking levels can impact how social the participants are). There is an afternoon and evening shift during the week for 3 hours and a Saturday day shift for 4 hours. 1-2 people per hour. Sometimes you build friendships outside of the coliving with the locals and grab dinner together or do other things which can be fun. The location is great! Easy to walk to lots of different cultural sites (two palaces near) and lots of restaurants in the area. Easy to get to other parts of the city via public transport.
