Overall positive
May 20, 2026by: LexiProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
My experience with gWorld was overall positive because of the team that helped me prepare for my trip. I had Kate as a coordinator. She introduced me to the necessary paperwork/documentation I would need to do and lead me through each step of the process. I knew I could reach out about anything and she could answer my question or direct me to the right person. It seemed like a few things got lost along the way but I still appreciate her forwarding my documents to XploreAsia. She was also able to give me a discount when I paid for my trip so I could avoid paying extra because of bank fees which was great! I'd say the whole team was helpful with their positive attitude and ability to call almost any time despite the time difference. They checked in on me regularly and made sure I had everything sorted out.
This was such a pleasure to do.
May 20, 2026by: RobertI loved the process. Everyone was so nice. Tai is amazing!!! This was such a pleasure to do. I am so happy that I chose to go with this company to Teach English abroad. I am so excited that I am moving forward with this adventure.
Unforgettable experience with Global Work & Travel
May 19, 2026by: Brandon - - United StatesI had an unforgettable experience with global work & travel on this trip, and my Trip Coordinator Shona was truly exceptional. They took care of every detail, from logistics to local insights, making sure each day was seamless and exciting. Their knowledge of the area was impressive, and they shared hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own. What really stood out was how they handled unexpected situations with ease, always staying one step ahead and making sure we felt comfortable and supported. They communicated clearly, so we always knew what to expect, and their enthusiasm made the whole experience feel that much more special. Thanks to Shona, I could fully relax and enjoy the adventure without any stress. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make the most out of their travels with expert guidance! Will definitely be back in the future.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I had just returned from my working holiday in Australia and had a real passion for traveling. Global Work and Travel seemed like the ideal place to start my career. I love that they get people who are wanting to travel but don't know where to start and are starting in a new country. I am proud that I can be such a huge part of that.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
My huge passion for travel and helping others experience travel in a very meaningful way. Until I went on my first solo trip abroad (a working holiday to Australia) I didn't realize how life-changing a work abroad experience could be! From nights I don't remember with friends I'll never forget, it was the adventure of a lifetime that I feel everyone should go for at least once in their lifetime.
