Description
Hello there
My name is Monica
I am really eager to meet you all and have a wonderful time with you.
I can help you explore our beautiful city of Danyang and to meet local friends so you can really experience Korean culture knee-deep.
Danyang in chung buk, the guinsa temple is the largest temple in Korea, and Sobak national park is famous for trekking. Loads of places to have fun and very safe to travel around. (Korea itself is very safe in general)
It takes about two hours to get here by train or express bus from Seoul
The main purpose is for the English class. Mostly helping local Korean's English conversation skills and building up friendships.
I am currently running a guest house, and you can stay for free accommodation. It's made into a private bathroom, and you can use a cooking kitchen.
Anyone who is happy to help out people with their language practice, who loves meeting new people, and is willing to expose themselves to a new culture is more than welcome to join our community
So there are two options.
1. Babysitting
2. English class with me
thank you
