My stay with Yoeng was fantastic! He was incredibly welcoming and truly dedicated to making sure I had a worthwhile three weeks. I discovered his beautiful ans peaceful garden, which we lovingly tended and where I felt really at ease. I was there during the chrysanthemum festival so I met a lot of people and had great experiences. But Yoeng also introduced me to the Andong region and authentic Korean life! Everyday, he was happy to make me discover something new, a place, some food, and he was a great Korean teacher too! He also really adapted to my vegetarianism, thank you Yeong! It was, as I liked to call it, a WWOOFing paradise. I will defenitly come back!

In a word, she was a flawless woofer. Her most characteristic trait was her proactive and positive attitude toward everything. But she wasn't overly or excessively pushy; she was always there. I'd say her very presence was a messenger of happiness, bringing joy to others.

Ma première et je suis sûr que cela sera la meilleure. Yeon tient un merveilleux jardin rempli de fleurs qui n’attends qu’à être découvert ! C’est un passionnée de ses plantes et cela se ressent. Chaque jour est une nouvelle adventure où vous découvrez le domaine ainsi que la région. En effet, je suis sortie tous les jours avec Yeon pour explorer les environs, il connaît les meilleurs endroits et est excellent guide. Alors merci pour ses bons moments que nous avons passés, entre les roses, les randonnées, les visites et les rires, Je reviendrais promis !

She's cheerful, bubbly, responsible, and sociable, making her a truly desirable WWOOFing companion. She's also fluent in Korean, making communication smooth. As an agricultural college graduate, she possesses extensive gardening knowledge and practical experience, which allowed her to fully utilize her skills in WWOOFing our garden. She's a WWOOFer I'd love to spend a long time with. I hope to see her again soon.

We had an amazing week staying with Young on his flower farm. It is a beautiful place surrounded by flowers, trees and wildlife that was a welcome break from the busier cities. Young is a great teacher both with regards gardening as well as Korean culture and day to day life. He taught us to slow down and appreciate the small things. It has been the highlight of our trip to Korea and we would recommend to anyone a wwoofing experience with the very kind and generous Young.

Mary and Patric were the best WWOOFers. They have a cheerful personality and a positive energy that makes even the hosts happy. Luckily, they had a great WWOOFing experience, and they made me a documentary star. I'm so grateful for this wonderful couple. And thank you for inviting me to Ireland.

I spent a wonderful 10 days with Yeonghae. He is such a wise, generous, compassionate man who is truly passionate about flowers and loves to share that passion with others. His garden is incredibly beautiful! The work I did was less physically demanding than many other farms, since it mostly consists of tending to the flowers: deadheading (trimming dead buds), planting new flowers, digging small holes, watering, etc. Yeonghae was also kind enough to bring me with him to visit some of his friends, and do a bit of traveling around the region, which has lovely mountains and national parks. It's such a peaceful environment and the living space is perfect as well. Highly recommend! 감사합니다 Yeonghae :)

I had such a great time and happiness during the ten days I spent with you. You will be remembered for many special things. You were so good at digging when planting roses, you showed off your vegetarian power by easily lifting heavy things, and you loved meditating in public baths. I will remember you for a long time and hope that our relationship will continue. I hope that you will be lucky in all your journeys and I will write to you again after my trip to England.

I had the most amazing week WWOOFing at Eodokwon! Yeonghae is such a kind and caring host, and he made sure that my work was not too tiring and I had lots of breaks/ free time to rest. My work primarily consisted of helping with planting new roses in the morning and deadheading in the afternoon, and I learned a lot about gardening & flowers. In the evenings, Yeonghae would drive us into town to get dinner & run errands - he even took me to the Andong bridge & Hahoe Village, which were beautiful! I genuinely enjoyed the work that I did there — I also really enjoyed getting to pick and eat from the wild strawberry bushes, cooking with vegetables from the garden, feeding the fish in the pond, and seeing the 2 cute dogs that live on the farm as well. The accommodation was also very comfortable, I had my own private living space with windows that had a beautiful view of the garden. You can really tell that Yeonghae loves his garden and his roses and it is very inspiring to be around, he has cultivated such a peaceful place with the prettiest roses you will ever see! I feel lucky to have stayed there after its opening to the public as well, seeing the visitors enjoy the flowers together made me so happy. I definitely recommend staying here, it was an enriching & healing experience :)

She was my best woofer. She has a kind smile and a bright personality without any trace of kindness. I was so happy that she was curious and serious about the things we did in our garden and had fun doing them. It was especially nice that I could study English with her as an English native.

First of all he is a really nice and good host who will help you if u have questions how to get anywhere. He is kind and patient. You can have fun with him too. Im Grateful for having me on this Flower Garden and i learned many things about different Flowers and talked with a lot of Visitors. You can really see how much work he had put in the Garden and it looks very Beautiful then all the Flowers and the Roses bloom. It’s a Colourful view on the Mountains. It was a wonderful experience. And the thing i liked was that the Roses are from many diverse Countries. And im really Grateful that i was there at the beginning there then the Garden was opened up to the public. I really can recommend him. Unfortunately my time on the Garden went really fast but i made a lot of pictures so i can remember it. I wish you the best and thank you for the Good time we had. And i really liked his one dog he is very Cute. If i could choose do go there again I would do it.

You, the first woofer in our garden, came from Germany, a country with a different culture, but you especially liked Korean food, so I am grateful, and the pasta you made was really delicious. And you understood the general routine and overall situation of the rose garden well, and helped us out when needed, so you were a great help to our garden. I promise to meet you next year when I travel to Germany, and I hope to continue our relationship. You were a "good young man, a quick-witted guy."
