Amazing

I am so happy I chose to go with Bipas to Bali. Great program and great teachers! I love to be able to go to the beach after my classes and I have a lot time to go surfing. I've been doing a lot of traveling to amazing places on this island. This is a great opportunity to see and experience their culture and visit all the temples and their beautiful nature.

I can really recommend this program!

Study Abroad, Autumn 2016, Lombok, Indonesia

I spent my exchange semester (autumn 2016) in Lombok, Indonesia. My exchange experience was absolutely amazing! I wanted to experience and see something totally new and different - Lombok was perfect place to do that. Lombok is not that crowded compared to Bali and that’s one of the things I loved!

Everything went much better than I ever dared to dream. With Asia Exchange, everything went smoothly and the application process was super easy and fast! I would definitely go on an exchange again!

I had plenty of time to explore Lombok and other islands nearby. I learnt many things about myself and everything around me. This kind of things enrich one’s life and I highly recommend Study Abroad -programme in Lombok to everyone!

Best decision ever!

I made the decision to apply for Udayana University in Bali, provided by Asia Exchange and it was the best decision I've ever made. The apllying process was very easy and quick, and I've spent the 4 best months in my life so far. I have no complaints, only praises for the Asia Exchange team, they're very helpful and friendly, and I've managed to acquire some lifelong friendships :) Can't no anything but to recommend highly! DO IT!

What would you improve about this program?
The teacher student communication could be digitalized or at least improved in a way that students get all the relevant information regarding course assignments, tasks, and general information.

An amazing experience!

I did an internship with Asiaexchange in 2015 and I'm so grateful to have that opportunity to be able to stay longer in Bali. The experiences and all the opportunities opened up for me. Meeting new people from all over the world and making new friends is something I had always hoped for. I feel rich not because of money, but because of the memories I gained. I recommend everyone to go out of their comfort zone to experience something amazing. It is something no one can explain, you have to experience it yourself :)

Living in Thailand

Asia Exchange is Great! Their faculty is always happy to answer questions and get involved. I'd recommend them to anyone!!

They set up events throughout the first couple weeks to get us oriented. And have staff live in the area for some time. Nice group of people.

Two of my highlights were the trip the planned to Phi Phi- an island off of Phuket, Thailand. And getting to have lunch with one of the employees and the co-founder. Both were fun and I'm so happy I choose to experience it.

Life in KL

To cut my story short, I spent the best year of my life in Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur is a vibrant city with diverse cultures and numerous activities to spend your weekends with. You can see the beautiful city while having a drink at the skybar, shop in one of the biggest shopping malls I've ever seen or run away to one of the many beautiful beaches Malaysia has.

The best experience I had was when I traveled to Redang Beach with my amazing Indian neighbors. Beautiful beaches with perfectly clear water painted a scene I will never forget. Diving with different animals from sharks to tortoises made the trip unforgettable therefore I will certainly plan to travel there one day again.

Overall, Malaysia is something everyone should experience. Once you step out of the plane and arrive to Kuala Lumpur, you won't regret it.

Come to HUFS - Meet the World

I can assure you that once you experienced the vibrant life the city of Seoul as to offer you never want to leave this place again. South Korea and Seoul in general is the perfect mixture of modern lifestyle combined with a variety of cultural traditions. No matter if you spend the day or night in Gangnam, Itaewon or Hongdae, you will have the time of your life.
The semester at HUFS offered so many new insights into different subjects and enabled me to exchange ideas with students from all over the world. I became friends with so many of them and I am now able to look differently at a world map, because I have friends in every single part of it.
The support from Asia Exchange was always helpful in any case and although we were the first batch of students attending a semester at HUFS for Asia Exchange everything ran so smoothly. From the beginning of the application process, during and after the semester, Asia Exchange was always there to help.

I would recommend the semester abroad at HUFS for everyone and would always do it again immediately.

First time scuba diving

I have seen corals and exotic fish species in TV documents many times. When it was time to make the first trip to an island, I decided to try scuba diving. Underwater world was so unreal and at the same time everything was so amazing that I couldn't even imagine to see anything like that. Swimming with sharks and turtles was my top 3 experiences during my student exchange period in Malaysia. My first wasn't also my last time. It is important to see the nature as it is so it will be easier to respect it!

HUFS is the perfect please to make life changing experiences

From the very first day, HUFS was a hotspot of fun, experience and development. HUFS is a mixture of very diligent and goal-oriented students, numerous fun activities and a the exchange of culture and language. During the days there are countless challenging yet enriching classes offered, the nights are filled with meet-ups, clubs and festivals. The campus is cozy and beautiful and offers a lot of options to chill or do group work. Both personal and academically, this is an excellent spot to grow because anything pretty much anything is possible over here - except for boredom. Outside of the campus, Seoul is a city full of entertainment, culture and joy. After one or two semesters at HUFS, I am pretty sure you do not want to leave anymore.

Amazing exchange!

I loved my exchange experience at Udayana! I would 100% recommend the Udayana exchange program from Asia Exchange to anyone interested in learning more about Asian culture in the middle of paradise. This amazing place and the memories you will gain as you study here will never leave you, and this experience will add instant color to your CV as well. Don't miss out on this chance to explore Southeast Asia and learn more about yourself in the process.
