I studied one semester in Bangkok, at the Kasetsart University. Doing a semester abroad was always a dream of me and it turned out as good as I thought it will be. I had an amazing time in Asia, travelled to so many new places, met so many new people and tested a lot of different cuisines. The time in Asia made me so much more self-confident and courageous in my personality.Studying abroad was one of the best decisions of my life!

I’ve always wanted to go to South East Asia but my school didn’t offer me that opportunity. I decided to go there by my own means but it was not easy to connect with the university there. Beyond Abroad made it all easy and I was able to go to this area that I wanted to discover so much. This was definitely the best experience of my life. I had the chance to discover a very welcoming culture and to travel all over South East Asia!
Hello everyone! My name is Léa and I fell in love with Thailand in 2018 after a volunteer experience. As a student in a French business school, I had the opportunity to study abroad for a semester. Unfortunately, my school did not give me the opportunity to discover more about Asia. Thanks to Beyond Abroad, I was able to realize my dream. Thailand is a wonderful country with very nice people, delicious food, and beautiful scenery. A real backpacker's country! I am very happy to study at Kasetsart University and I will be happy to answer all your questions (experience, administration, courses, travel, local life...).
