Thank you to everyone at From Bali for making our time in Seoul so special. We were treated with so much respect and affection. We had a very comfortable double room. The chefs took us on unique gastronomic experiences and tours. We had a great time with Art, Ooy, Jhon, BonJov, and the most beloved mascot, Tepum. We will miss you so much. We love being able to share a little of our journey with you

It's hard work but if you've worked in restaurants before, it's easy. I thank jhon, ooy and art who were the ones who made us feel at home, also the bosses are very attentive, the place is far from Seoul, it is fun to meet other travelers and the work is very good when you get used to it, They were very flexible and friendly,

From Bali was more than a volunteer experience — it was about people who treat you like family. The hosts and staff - including the mascot dog, Taepung, are kind, funny, and deeply caring. They shared meals, stories, and everyday moments that made me feel seen and valued. Even with the language barrier, their warmth spoke louder than words. Some days I worked hard but also I was guided with patience and respect. We laughed together, rested together, and built trust. If you're open-hearted and willing to connect, this place will stay with you. I'll carry them in my heart — and I will return.

nna helped me for a long time.
I hope she had a great time here.
She got along well with the other friends and worked very hard.
We went to Geoje together, met other Worldpackers members, and had a wonderful trip.
Her efforts were a great support to us.

It was a pretty good experience for me. Sometimes it can happen that you're not always placed at one location, so if you're planning to stay in Seoul, things might not go as expected, since you could be sent to the south (6-7 hours away from Seoul). The staff are really cool though — Ooy makes amazing food, John and Ad are super friendly and make sure you never get bored. If you're generally looking to explore South Korea, this is a great opportunity.

My experience volunteering here was definitely positive. There are things to improve, mostly communication (using English is challenging) and living spaces. On the other hand, the team is absolutely amazing, you get unlimited food, and the host tries his best to show you the culture and make your stay worthwhile.

Matt's support over the past two months has been invaluable.
He is very strong and has good communication skills, so I tried to give him a lot of experiences in Korea.
We have shared delicious Korean food and travelled to other parts of the world together.
I am forever grateful to Matt for his dedication and support.
I wish you a safe journey to Canada.

My experience at From Bali was really great! The staff is really amazing. Even though I was the only volunteer there I really felt welcomed and always included. The work is nothing difficult to do but during weekend it can get very intense as there are many costumers. Peter is really kind and I had the opportunity to experience a lot of different things and foods :) I will be back! :)

Carolina for visiting during our busiest season and showing so much effort!
Thank you so much, thank you so much.
You always kept a smile on your face and maintained a good relationship with the staff, even when things got tough.

I know you will do well wherever you go and whatever you do with such enthusiasm!

My experience at the camping was my second with Worldpackers. Like any new job , it took me at least a week to get comfortable with the work flow. However, the beauty of the environment and its remote location from the city made it all worth it .In terms of the job description , be prepared to be busy on weekends but enjoy a more calm atmosphere during the weekdays. Always make sure to check with the manager for any tasks that need to be completed. I must mention Mr . Peter 's generosity when it comes to food and the kindness of the staff members who made my stay unforgettable.

Leo always has a smile on his face and gets the job done!
Your efforts during the busy season have been a great encouragement to me ^^.
I'll be in touch when I visit Hawaii one day.

I hope you had a great time in Korea.

Overall I didn't feel welcome. No one really talked to me, which might have been because the owner wasn't there most of the time and the other staff didn't speak english very well. Although the other staff was very nice and caring. I got to sleep in one of the tent/hut-things at first but then was changed to a horrendous room. For no apparent reason because I could go to an other normal hut after I told the owner that I could not sleep in this room. I left the day after that and I am still happy with that decision.

There is some space for improvement but the experience overall was good. There are two locations so you might have a choice to relocate to the south of Korea. The location closer to Seoul has a very small room with no window, bathroom with no sink, and it might not be for you if you're sensitive to mold. The staff is nice. The working hours can be up to 8 hours, lunch break not included, so keep that in mind.

This is my first time doing worldpackers and the main job here is kitchen cleaning and assembling furniture. The work content is about 32 hours a week, and it will be busy on holidays, and you need to work 9 hours a day. The staff at this shop were friendly and provided us with accommodation for our lives, as well as information for our travel needs. However, the store is far away from the light rail station, so it takes more time to go out on the road. During my few weeks here, I experienced the local customs and explored Gangnam and Seoul.
