English Homestay Gia Lam Hanoi
Because we offer more than just accommodation — we offer a true cultural exchange.
At our homestay, volunteers don’t just help, they become part of a family. You’ll live, cook, and learn with locals and other travelers, while helping Vietnamese students improve their English through real-life conversations and activities.
In return, we provide:
Free accommodation and wifi, kitchen, fridge
A welcoming, social environment
Opportunities to explore the local area with local guidance
A meaningful way to make a difference through language and friendship
If you’re looking for more than just a bed — if you want connection, culture, and contribution — this is the place for you!
We are a small, passionate team of educators, travelers, and local hosts who believe in the power of cultural exchange. Our homestay is run like a family — warm, relaxed, and full of laughter. I (the host) have years of experience working with both local students and international volunteers. Many of our team members speak English and love learning about different cultures.
How we treat volunteers:
Volunteers are treated as part of the family — not just guests or workers. We value your time, your effort, and your stories. You’ll have a clean and safe place to stay, and plenty of support from us every day. We are always open to your ideas, and we’re here to make sure your experience is both meaningful and fun.
Whether you're helping with English practice, joining family meals, or exploring the neighborhood, you'll always feel welcomed, respected, and appreciated.
