My time at this place was truly amazing. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and comfortable — the environment is warm and friendly, and you really feel at home. The work is simple and repetitive in a good way, so once you learn the routine, everything becomes easier and more enjoyable. As long as you're responsible and focused, it's a smooth and rewarding experience. The two sub-managers were incredibly kind and helpful — they always made sure I understood everything, they listened to me, and supported me throughout my stay. The manager was also really nice. Thanks for everything!!!

Spending 2½ months at the hostel Myeongdong was a truly wonderful experience I will never forget. The balance between work and free time was just right. I really appreciated how everything was taken care of, especially the daily meals, which made things so much easier. What stood out the most was the warm and welcoming environment. I met amazing people, made great memories, and made amazing new friends. 😊 Overall, it's a great place I'd love to return to as a volunteer!

My stay at the hostel was Amazing. The manager Hyeon du was really nice and really understanding. The amount of work is more doable, you work 5 days a week and have 2 free days which leave you many times to explore the hostel. When there is a lot of work the manager help you. The location of the hostel is also great. Thank you for this experience

We had a wonderful one-month stay at the hostel in South Korea! From the very beginning, everything was well-organized and smooth. The work was always manageable and fair, and we really appreciated having meals provided every day, it made everything so much easier and more enjoyable. The place itself was always clean and comfortable, and we felt really at home during our time here. Special thanks and warm greetings to Mathilde, who trained us so kindly and made us feel welcome right away. All in all, it was a great experience, and we're very grateful for our time here!
