Thailand Travel Grad TEFL

I came to Thailand as a qualified teacher looking to improve my abilities in teaching children whose first language is not English and experience a new way of living. I can safely say that I have achieved both of these things and so much more! I never thought I would be so lucky to live with 7 other amazing people in Maha Sarakham, Northern Thailand who I know I will call friends for life! I am also very lucky to live in a very nice city with lots of markets, nightlife, nature and food spots! Meeting the people I have and traveling with them all around Bangkok and then to places like Chiang Mai and Pai for New Year is surreal - I often forget that we have only known each other for 2 months so far! And the lifestyle in Thailand is something much to be admired. It is incredibly peaceful and nobody is ever in a rush! As someone who is a workaholic and always on the go, this took some getting used to, but I have never been so calm in my life! TravelGrad is definitely an excellent gateway into Thailand, and Andrew is incredibly helpful, reassuring, and always there when you have questions. Plus, if you are sensible, you can save enough money to travel more of South East Asia when your contract ends! I am currently planning my 9-week break trip to Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia!

I am very grateful for the experience I have had with TravelGrad so far, I don't want it to end!
