The Experience

Hi travelers I am Kaze. who fall in love with travel. yes, I am one of you guys. I made a place for backpackers in Gyeong-Ju in South Korea. Name is Doobaki. Gyeong-Ju is historic city where calm and cozy , peaceful place. I rode my motorcycle around this small planet. At that time, I thought of making a hostel where all travelers relax like home. And I did it.I can't handle this alone.Come to my house and let's make a nice and beautiful place .

The experience was amazing and the city is absolutely beautiful. The hostel has a great vibe and the schedule is really flexible, which I loved. There's also a bar connected to the hostel where it's easy to hang out and connect with the guests. Kaze is super friendly and always makes you feel welcome. I honestly liked everything here — it was one of the best volunteering experiences I've had!

I stayed here for 3 weeks, and it felt as warm and safe as home. I met many interesting people. the hostel has a bar next door, where we shared lots of laughs and unforgettable moments. The volunteer schedule was well-balanced, giving me plenty of time to explore Gyeongju and nearby cities. The location is excellent. The guesthouse is kept very clean and has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Kaze, the host, is a caring and thoughtful person who understands what makes a place feel like home for those on the road. I'm grateful to have met Kaze and all the beautiful souls who made my stay so memorable.
