Laura from Germany5 months High School Exchange Thailand, 2023
"I have learned about my strengths and weaknesses and I know more about my character. I never gave up and reached the goals I wanted to reach. I expressed my feelings and grown in myself. I did many trips and joined the school band. My biggest advice is if you have a problem, try to talk to a person about it because if you keep it to yourself, it will make you feel sad"

“Your time in Thailand you will get out what you put into it. I am thankful for my relationships with my students and they are one of the biggest things I got out of my time teaching.
My time in Thailand helped set me up for success in my current role. Living and working in a small rural part of Thailand meant I adapted to life in Asia more quickly. I became fluent in body language and hand gestures when speaking with locals. Currently I am a primary caretaker for Sun Bear cubs in Borneo. I am in an even more rural part of the world but I felt prepared coming from Phusang. My schedule and my resources have constantly fluctuated here in Indonesia but teaching in a Thai school helped me learn to embrace adaptability and flexibility. Forming relationships with my students helped me learn that bonds could be formed regardless of languages, and I have connected with many of the local staff here and we speak very little of each other’s language.”
