High School Year in Thailand

Live with a host family, go to a school and get an inside look at a typical life in the gateway to Southeast Asia.

Explore a country whose ancient traditions, friendly attitude, and tropical landscapes are world-famous. By living with a Thai host family, you’ll be able to make yourself at home as you attend a local high school and get involved in your community. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in cultural activities like touring Buddhist temples, visiting lively night markets, and tasting spicy gaeng (Thai curry). If you’re a person who values the quiet and calm but also seeks to find sanuk (fun) in all things, then Thailand is the place for you.
