I really enjoyed my stay at the home! She is very sweet and welcoming. I really didn't have any tasks; I just swept the floor and helped her practice English through conversation! We made dinner together the second night, which was really fun. I recommend this experience to anyone looking for a more unique / local stay. She also lives right on the beach so its also good for anyone that loves the water! :)

Sun was the most heartwarming host that you can imagine -always smiling, always interested in getting to know you and your life and always there to help with anything you need. The short time that we could spend with her really allowed us to gain a new perspective of the local life in vietnam and on top we also gained a new friend that we would be glad to see again someday. Also Sun is the most ambitious person you will ever get to meet!! She is just in the beginning of starting her own business, there is so much to learn from her and you shouldn't miss that opportunity!! :)

The stay with Sun was very nice. We felt very welcome with her from the beginning. You could tell that she has a real interest in getting to know new people and showing her city to her guests. She is a very nice and inspiring person. Thank you very much for your time 🌞

I stayed 3 nights with Chau and her little brother and it was a pleasure. I really enjoyed it Even if she was working a lot, she took the time to talk and share her culture and dreams with me. I learned a lot about vietnam. The house is 30 min away from the city, next to the beach, so if she is busy working and you don't know how to drive a bike, be ready to enjoy the beach and chill (there is a coffee next door and places to eat all over the beach so it was nice to enjoy the day peacefuly).

Sun was very understanding when I had to move my arrival by a day. She welcomed me, showed me around that night, and even introduced me to local food. This isn't a luxury stay - It's her home, and she's genuinely sharing her space and life. Her brother and sister are a bit shy but always greet with a smile. The beach is close by, great for sunrise walks. The place is about 30 minutes from the city, so it's more peaceful, but that also means you need to plan ahead if you plan to go to the city centre. Sun is driven, kind, and full of dreams. I'm grateful for the experience and to have met her.

Sun is the kindest soul. She made both me and my girlfriend feel so welcome. We cooked dinner together both nights which was really fun. There was no tasks to do, she just wanted to practise English in exchange for free accommodation at her house. Such a cool experience got to learn so much about Vietnamese culture. Will never forget this experience and we have made a really good friend.

Sun was the perfect host : always smiling, very welcoming and open-minded. Being at her house and sharing meals with her and her family was a real pleasure ! You feel at home and you don't want to leave :) I strongly recommend this experience if you want to have a real contact and to immerse into local culture. The tasks were actually more close of thoses of a coachsurfing than a volonteering ; you're here to help her practise her english by spending quality time, and you participate to the house's chores, but you basically have the all day to visit the city and do your things !

I spent 2 nights at the home and had an incredible time. Sun is such a loveable, interesting person. She is always keen to try new things which I really admire. During my stay we went to the beach by her house for sunrise and the Lady Pagoda, which I wanted to visit, and she also kindly took me on a local food tour in the evening (both affordable and informative!). I feel like I have really made a good friend, and learnt a lot more about the Vietnamese culture and way of living. Her and her family and neighbours are all lovely people, I can't recommend this WP enough. Tysm Sun!!!
