I had a short, but truly meaningful stay at the Homestay. The local staff, the students and the volunteers had a positive, genuine and beautiful energy. I had the chance to understand better about the vietnamese culture and history through their perspectives. Even though I was the one tutoring, I also felt like a student as I learned so much. The facilities are humble, but functional and, although it's not in the center area, you can access it through a 10k bus ride. There are many cafes and restaurants around — we even have discounts! It was definitely a worthy experience!

I would 100% recommend this experience. I had such an amazing time and made some fantastic friends. The homestay is very social and has such a lovely vibe to it. The work is relaxed and very rewarding- you talk to the students and practice conversation for a few hours in the evening. The homestay is an hour bus ride from Hanoi old quater and you have will have much time during the day to explore. I had such a nice time and definitely want to come back someday!

It was an overall great experience staying at the Homestay. It is a place with social and chill vibes where you'll meet both local Vietnamese people and other volunteers. It's located in a nice local area with easy access to the city centre, making it ideal for recharging after a long period of traveling. The "work" itself is really fun- just guided conversation with adults- and usually less hours than described. The host (Harry) is also very helpful and accommodating with anything you need. The only thing that needs some improvement is the cleanliness of the facilities.

I had a lovely experience at the homestay in Hanoi. The other volunteers and the staff/leaders were super friendly and worldly and we connected easily. Although there was a language barrier between the students and us, we were still able to connect with them and they were super friendly! The classes were very chill and not too hard, and we were given plenty of free time to do other activities. Location was pretty good and taking the bus to Hanoi was really easy and cheap. I would definitely recommend this experience to other travelers and I think it's an amazing way to meet new people!

I had such a great time at the homestay! Everything about this place is amazing - the atmosphere, the work, the people. I have made so many memories with the other volunteers and students - teaching English to the students was such a core memory as they were so eager to learn! Easy work for good accommodation and hospitality. Special shout out to Vu (House Manager). He was so very kind to me & made me feel to welcomed!
