A different world

I went to Korea the first time ever as someone who has been out of school well over 5 years. I solo travelled and stayed for 2 months in an Airbnb and enjoyed my time. I recommend 4-5 weeks at most. At any age and any ethnicity you should try this. I am happy I did! So much so that I can’t wait to visit Thailand and other places in south east Asia solo. The program also offers you free transport back to the airport when it’s time to depart! I do wish they had a language class and more group outing when I went but no regrets here!

AIP in Jakarta

I had an excellent internship experience with AIP, and I am very grateful for the support I received throughout the entire process. From the beginning, the team was attentive to my needs and went above and beyond to ensure I was placed in Jakarta, which is the location I had hoped for. Their dedication and professionalism made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Beyond logistics, everyone at AIP was kind, approachable, and genuinely supportive, which made me feel welcomed and cared for.

The best six week of my life

Thanks to AIP, I was able to complete an amazing six-week internship in South Korea. It was my very first trip abroad and completely on my own, but with AIP’s support I always felt safe and well taken care of. From the moment I was picked up at the airport, I knew I was in good hands. They quickly answered all of my questions and guided me throughout the whole process. I was matched with a great internship placement that perfectly fit my interests and the housing location was excellent with both bus and metro stops less than five minutes away. During this time I met so many new people, experienced Korean culture firsthand and gained memories I will never forget. I wouldn’t change a thing! I am beyond grateful and very happy with AIP’s service. I would do it again if I could and I highly recommend it to anyone considering an internship abroad!

What was your funniest moment?
On my very first day in Korea I was super tired, since I barely slept on the flight. In the afternoon I went to a convenience store to grab something small to eat and drink before going straight to bed. I thought I bought two bottles of water (there was even a water drop on the label!)… but it turned out to be soju. Lesson learned: don’t let the packaging fool you in Korea!
Pros
  • Better English skills
  • Got more confident
  • Experience
What other participants should know
  • Not everyone speaks English (but u can still use translation apps)
  • Sometimes my Credit card didn't work(u should always have some cash on u)

Great people, great time!

I had a great experience! The AIP people are very responsive and communicative. It was nice that they periodically checked in throughout my time abroad, and the free ride from the airport made it very easy to settle in at first. I spent two months in Taipei, and it was super fun, and the people are so nice! The food is super good at the night markets and local restaurants. Beef noodle soup, deep-fried king crab legs, and Din Tai Fung are all standouts. MRT and public buses make travel around the city super easy if you dont have a private driver.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
The wasps here can get bigger than 3 inches long! They are extremely scary, but I put on my big boy pants and ran away whenever I saw one 10/10
Pros
  • Night markets + super cheap food
  • Kind locals + Beautiful island
  • Lots of English and Korean for non Chinese speakers
What other participants should know
  • Bugs are huge compared to America
  • Hot and humid every day
  • Bad pasta (do not eat the Italian food here it is very bad)

Internship In Malaysia

I am very pleased with the service AIP provided me. They made the whole process easier, from finding an internship to helping me locate in Malaysia. They always checked on me to make sure everything was going smoothly, which I really appreciated. I would say all of the people I worked with in AIP were very quick and concise to answer all my questions and it helped me a lot throughout the whole process. It was actually the best 2 months of my life, with a new culture, new people, and a decent work experience.

Life-Changing Internship Experience in Japan

Asia Internship Program truly changed my life forever. Through their program, I was given the incredible opportunity to travel to Japan and spend three months immersed in a culture that I had always admired from afar. During this time, I not only gained valuable professional and personal experience but also grew in ways I never imagined possible.

Living in Japan taught me independence, resilience, and adaptability. I made lifelong friends, embraced new perspectives, and discovered more about myself along the way. The memories I created—from exploring the beauty of Japanese traditions to navigating everyday life—are unforgettable and will stay with me forever.

I am proud to have called Japan my home during this period, even if just for a few months, and I am deeply grateful to Asia Internship Program for making it possible. This journey was more than just an internship—it was a turning point in my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Asia Internship Program to anyone seeking growth, adventure, and a truly transformative experience abroad.

What was your funniest moment?
One of the funniest moments of my entire trip was when I visited Nara. I thought I’d peacefully feed the famous deer… but instead, they ganged up on me like a hungry squad! 🦌😂 The second they saw food in my hands, they started nudging, chasing, and even bowing for snacks. I was laughing and running at the same time, trying to keep up with them. It felt like I was the main character in a comedy show—and honestly, it became one of my favorite memories from Japan!
Pros
  • Supportive
  • Caring

Amazing experience

I had such a unique and exciting experience thanks to the amazing team at AIP. They supported me every step of the way and made my time here truly unforgettable. Kate and Herlyn helped me find the perfect accommodation in a beautiful neighborhood, just 20 minutes walk from my internship office. It was exactly the environment I was hoping for and the flat I was staying at wonderful. Jeff was incredible in securing my internship. He quickly found me the exact position I wanted, arranged the interview and I was accepted right away. He handled everything, from the visa process to all the documentation, making the whole procedure stress-free for me. What made it even more special was the way the entire team was always by my side. They regularly checked in on me, organized activities with other interns and created such a warm and welcoming community. I’ll always be grateful for their support. Everything went so smoothly, even better than I ever imagined possible.

I had an amazing experience

I had an amazing 6-week internship in Bangkok through AIP, and the whole journey truly exceeded my expectations. The AIP team did an excellent job matching me with a company that offered real responsibilities, where I could contribute, gain meaningful hands-on experience, and develop practical skills that will benefit my future career. Beyond the internship, living in Bangkok was unforgettable, with countless opportunities to explore its culture, food, and vibrant lifestyle. AIP provided the perfect mix of professional growth and cultural discovery, and I highly recommend this program to anyone seeking valuable international experience.
