I had an amazing time! The work involves a few office shifts in the week, with loads of time still to explore the city, and running events on the weekend, which are also a great way to meet lots of new people. Jake is a really great host and the other volunteers were also really nice and welcoming. Would definitely recommend, especially if you enjoy nightlife and meeting new people.

I stayed with Jake for 6 months,time full of learning, growth, unforgettable experiences.Jake is kind and helpful; although there was a small language barrier at first,we quickly found ways to understand each other.I had chance to travel and met many amazing volunteers,forming strong connections(environment depends on the group at the time).The job requires high energy and regular interaction with people (if you're introverted can be challenging).Jake is often busy, but always approachable if you need help.I recommend this experience,especially for first-time volunteer.Feel free to contact me!

This experience was a really amazing way of starting my solo traveling journey. Because of the activities we had to program I made a lot of good friends and had an amazing time. I was looking to meet the locals and live the culture experience! The work can be stressful sometimes but if you work as a team everything goes well. I really enjoyed my stay here, and I recommend it mostly to people who wants to have fun, go out and party a bit.

Jake is an ambitious entrepreneur that needs help with planning two social events a week, one at a pub and another wherever you wish. One time I held a watercolor session in a cafe, another time we walked up to namsam tower. It's best to be a social person who can talk to strangers and keep conversations going. During office days he requests feedback on app/website developments but mainly it's group management in social member chat rooms. The bed was comfy with plenty of open closet space, the location was accessible to two metro lines. Plenty of free time to explore. 10/10 would go back

This was my first volunteering experience, and I'm truly glad I chose this place. Jake provided clear instructions, and whenever I had questions, I didn't hesitate to ask. He was always responsive and helpful. The work was enjoyable and well-organized, with set hours that made it easy for me to plan my day. The house where I stayed was also comfortable, and I really enjoyed living there. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'm grateful for the opportunity.
