Greatest experience of my life
November 03, 2025by: Emma Blanquer - FranceProgram: Study Abroad in Seoul for 1-2 Semesters - Hankuk UniversityI am a visiting student at HUFS in Seoul, and I applied through Asia Exchange. What a wonderful journey I had with them! The entire procedure from application to arrival was smooth and user-friendly. The Asia Exchange team consisted of very nice people and they always answered my questions very fast. They gave me specifications about HUFS, student life, and living in Korea, which were really useful for my preparation. They even helped me apply for a dorm, so I didn’t have to worry about finding accommodation on my own. I really suggest Asia Exchange to all those who are planning to study in South Korea, you won't have any problem and no stress at all!
I never left
October 12, 2025by: Umeda Hoffmann - DenmarkProgram: Study Abroad in Seoul for 1-2 Semesters - Hankuk UniversityI’m super grateful for Asia Exchange during my study abroad. They took care of everything and made it super easy for me to go to Korea. Since I loved my experience so much, I’ve stayed in Korea since 2021 and still work with Asia Exchange to this day!
Would come back anytime!
February 23, 2025by: Gizem Toraman - GermanyProgram: Study Abroad in Seoul for 1-2 Semesters - Hankuk UniversityTogether with asia exchange I was able to study in the city of my dreams. They have an excellent support and help you with anything. I was initially very overwhelmed, but Asia Exchange sent emails and reminders every time something came up, which made everything much easier. My contact person was also very approachable and kind. I'm really happy with my decision!

Participated in 2010
I chose to study abroad because I wanted to see the world. I wanted to LIVE in a completely different way, not just vacation for a few days. I wanted to feel what it was like to live in another culture, to see what other ways of life were out there. I wanted to make new friends and learn another language.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I started getting really interested in foreign languages in high school, when I decided to take three foreign languages all at the same time. After considering a career as a foreign language teacher, my interests eventually shifted to European studies and international education. I knew I had to live in Europe, so I did an internship in Belgium and then enrolled in a master’s degree program at Stockholm University in Sweden. I really like the Nordic countries, and I was thrilled to get a chance to work at Asia Exchange in Tampere, Finland.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I went on an Asia Exchange study exchange in Bangkok in the spring of 2009. At the time I was doing a bachelor’s degree in engineering, but I was interested in business studies and wanted to experience the exotic Asia. I found Asia Exchange online and saw that they offered a good business study program at Kasetsart University in Bangkok, so I decided to take the leap and apply for the program. The exchange has been one of the best experiences of my life and it worked as a spark for me to do a whole new bachelor’s degree in international business, which I’m currently finishing up. The whole experience with the exchange in Bangkok and studying more business led me to apply to work at Asia Exchange, and thus I’ve come around full circle.
