The Healthy Place, GOT(곳)

The Complex Hanok Space, GOT, with the motto of ' The Place to Fill, ' has a unique history. The office of upeu (WWOOF KOREA) used to be used as an office, and it is now open to foreigners who visit Korea for the purpose of holding orientation and accommodation.

GOT thinks environment. Along with the environment-friendly farmers, GOT offers detergent, shampoo, soap, and toilet paper only in eco-friendly products and also offers bread, yogurt, jam, soy milk and fruit made of organic ingredients. On the other side of the courtyard, GOT made a small garden, and also run a cafe with its own teas grown by environment-friendly farmers. In Cafe, you can meet a variety of traditional tea such as Hadong's Tea, Yubyeongbae Tea, Haenam Organic Green Tea, Kkotdamcheongcheong Tea, and Organic Silkap. I think my body and mind are getting healthier, here.
