2주라는 짧다면 짧은 시간동안 제 인생에서 또 한번 평생 기억에 남을 순간을 만들 수 있었습니다. 구층암에서의 생활은 너무 평화로웠고 평소 자연과 가까울 수 없는 환경이었는데 이곳에서 매일 찻잎을 따면서 어느순간 새소리가 들리고 바람에 나뭇잎이 흔들리는 소리를 들으면서 자연 속에 있는 것을 즐기게 되었습니다. 소중한 친구들을 이곳에서 만날 수 있었던 것도 너무 행운이었습니다. 언제나 묵묵히 그 자리에서 나를 기억하고 있을 것만 같은 구층암을 다시 한번 찾아가고 싶습니다. 좋은 경험을 할 수 있게 해주셔서 검사합니다!

I already miss the beautiful mountains, people, food, tea, and I hope I can return someday! I enjoyed the balance built into our daily schedule between work, rest, learning about the tea practice/Buddhism, and connecting with WWOOFers and members of the community. Being here in late March-early April, I had the opportunity to engage in various tasks from working in the tea fields to tea sorting and packaging as well as taking down, building, and hanging lanterns and preparing vegetables for cooking. Apart from obligations as a WWOOFer, I also had the chance to explore the abundant surroundings through hiking, visiting 화엄사 and the local town, morning meditation, and so many games. Many thanks to 화엄구층제다 and to everyone who made this experience so meaningful!

Coming here was everything I expected and more. Before accepting my request, they warned me that april/may was a busy season for them, but if you enjoy intense work in a friendly environment and learning more about picking and making tea, this is the perfect place. Morevoer, the temple is situated in a quiet and gorgeous setting in the middle of the mountains. I will definitely come back to learn more about bouddhism and enjoy the daily life there at a less busy time ! :)

Vielen, vielen Dank! Ich hatte eine wunderbare Zeit in Gucheung Am und würde jederzeit wiederkommen. Ich konnte während den 5 Wochen die ich dort war sehr viel übers Teemachen lernen. Die Sprache ist zwar manchmal eine kleine Hürde, aber es sind immer Leute da, die mal etwas Übersetzen. Wer gerne draussen ist, viele Leute kennenlernen möchte und ein wenig in das Leben im Tempel eintauchen möchte ist hier definitiv richtig.

Jai pu touché du doigts la vie en temple durant deux semaines. C'était une expérience très enrichissante pour moi. L'endroit est magnifique, dépaysant, la nourriture était très bonne, et humainement toutes les personnes du temple étaient adorables et bienveillantes ! 🙏🫰 Le travail était un peu redondant je dois l'admettre, mais j'ai vraiment apprécié que chacun puisse travailler à son rythme sans pression. C'était très agréable. J'ai pu aussi découvrir les subtilités et les bienfaits du thé, c'était passionnant ! Si je n'avais pas eu d'autres obligations, je serais resté plus longtemps. Merci à toutes et tous ! ✨🙏❤️🇰🇷

The 17-day WOOFING stay in Guchung Jeda was a really special experience. From working in the tea fields, sharing temple meals, talking with friends from all over the world, and drinking tea every morning. I vividly remember walking around Hwaeom Temple, indulging in the majestic scenery of Jiri Mountain, buying teacups at Gurye Traditional Market, and wandering through endless cherry blossom paths and golden flower villages. Every morning after drinking tea, I fell in love with tea. This morning, while drinking a cup of tea at home, I thought that the woofers in Guchung Jeda would also be drinking tea at the same time. I think the WOOFING there will be remembered for a long time
