The Twenty-Four Hour City

Seoul is sparkly, clean and beautiful, divided by the gorgeous Han River and enveloped by mountains. In contrast to the downtown high rises, there are also multiple UNESCO world heritage areas with ancient temples, palaces and courtyards for you to explore.

Even though Seoul is a vast capital city, it embraces its new residents quickly and warmly. Koreans are known as very polite and friendly. Seoul has also been rated as one of the best student cities in the world.

“Going abroad has opened up my eyes” Korea and HUFS was a culturally enriching experience that gave me profound insights on many new things. I established friendships that will hopefully last for a lifetime and I felt like I really infiltrated the Korean culture – I got into it. I’m extremely grateful for the entire experience. Going abroad has opened up my eyes and allowed me to see that there is another world out there besides the world I live in. I have put to rest my prenotions. I cannot wait to travel to back to Korea and experience new things and meet more people.

“I love the atmosphere of my new home” The smell of cotton candy is laying in the air paired with laughter. It’s the first day of school at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies and the college clubs try to recruit new members. I love the atmosphere of my new home; busy students walking around, the smell of the metropolis and the excitement about something new that’s laying in front of me. Read more in Antonia's Blog!

This is an amazing experience! I was impressed with the amount of care I felt from the advisers in Asia Exchange, I learned a lot about the Korean culture, but also about myself and how much more I can do. I would recommend this organization to anyone looking to study abroad. Asia Exchange made everything incredibly easy and accessible.
