The people I met during my experience truly made the journey unforgettable, grateful to now have friends from various countries. Everyone was incredibly friendly, open-minded, and supportive. We shared stories, laughter, and created memories that I'll cherish forever. Being surrounded by such positive and inspiring individuals made every day a joy and a reminder of the power of connection. Work was also as expected, completely doable and will definitely become a routine after a few shifts. Not to be scared, the location was also great, walking distance to subway and hongdae the hostel.

Kylie and her husband were really welcoming. We had occasional dinners when other volunteers left or a nice picknick in the park! There are 3 shifts to work, each 4 hours. Especially on the morning shift it was often a bit exhausting and the 4 hours of work were needed to complete all the tasks. Be aware it is not only 1 guesthouses, but 3 and some other apartments. All of them are about 5 to 10 minutes by walk. Besides that I was really lucky with the other volunteers. We lived good together in the apartment that Kylie provides. There was always free rice and ramen provided by Kylie as well.

Everything work related is described in that document. -Bring work clothes! You will be working with bleach and it will stain your socks + pants. -You mostly will need the full 4 hours to finish everything. - The location in Hongdae is great! -Eight people stay in the staff dorm together. If there are more volunteers → they stay in the hostel. -You also do the laundry + help with check-in

Perfect located in Hongdae! Important to know: guesthouse consists of 3 main houses with different apartments. Everything's reachable in between 10 min. A shift takes 4h and you have to clean 2 apartments, do laundry and help with check in. And you'll need all the time. I recommend work clothes that can get dirty because you'll bleach the bathrooms! Weekly schedule was flexible. Communication worked via KakaoTalk. I lived in an apartment with other volunteers and it was nice. But it could happen that you live in one of the dorms with the guests because there's not enough space in staff house.

Lovely location and very clean staff house which had adequate space for personal belongings and the house manager Momo assigned cleaning rota so everyone contributed to cleaning of the house which was really good and tried her best to accomodate required days off, which was really helpful!You really need to come prepared to work also. I appreciate the host let me use a praying area for privacy. I was able to leave earlier than planned when there were more volunteers to travel more & the host was able to accomodate me in the hostel & her husband sorted a luggage issue i had. Thank you!

I spent two months and a half volunteering for Kylie and it was a really good first experience with Worldpackers. The accommodation was comfortable and the location perfect for me. The work was as I expected, a bit tiring but it does leave us a lot of free time. I was really lucky to be there as the same time as the other volunteers that I met, I enjoyed my stay so much at the staff dorm, I am very thankful towards them.

This is an excellent opportunity for anyone who wants to experience one of the best neighborhoods in Seoul. You work 4 hours a day, four days a week. Your job is to ensure the rooms and apartments are ready for the next guests. You'll also do some laundry, check guests in and keep the building in good shape. You get to live in a nice apartment, exclusive for the volunteers, and it's only a 3-minute walk from the guesthouse. I'm so grateful that Kylie and Josie have accepted me even though it was a very last-minute request & I would love to help again whenever I'm back in Korea.

It is the first time I am alone, far away from my country and my family. Here I feel so comfortable and really part of the team, that I don't feel so far from home, that's why I extend my stay by 1 month. The whole team tries to help you from the first day, the homework is easy and if you have any doubt you can count on the team.

I really have a great time at highstreet, I have the chance to meet amazing people while I was living there, they make me feel like a big family. HongDae is an amazing place to stay, has everything you need and it is very convenient, you can get any where in Seoul un just minutes. Kylie respects the agreements that she offers, and once you get to know how to do the job, time flies while you are working 🤗 and having 3 days free was so cool
