With a fascinating Thai culture, it is bound to act as a magnet for all thosepeople looking to start an exciting new career in life, where globe-trotting and earning are both on the same page.
Bangkok is often called “The City of Angels”. It is a vibrant city full of life. However, it can also be called “the city of contradictions”. It is the contradictions that give the City of Angels its rich, multifaceted personality. Here, air conditioned megamalls are seen side by side with 200-year-old village homes; gold-spired Buddhist temples share space with neon-lit strip markets; slow-moving traffic is bypassed by long-tail boats plying the royal river; and streets lined with food carts are overlooked by restaurants on top of skyscrapers. And as Bangkok competes towards the future with the Western world, these contrasts will never stop lending the city its unique and ever-changing strain of Thai-ness.

Also, transportation is equally cheap; travelling to the most popular places, viz Chiang Mai, the Rose of the North and the Golden Triangle can easily be done.
Another worth mentioning characteristic of this beautiful Southeast Asian city is the ‘sanuk’ culture.

Discipline among the students won’t be an issue; instead, there will be a lot of fun stuff to be done for both teachers and students alike, like exciting activities, new lessons, excursions, and games. The Thai students are extremely creative and fun to teach as you get to know them.
Along with enjoying such benefits, if you are one of those people who are fond of shopping, just like me, then this place is definitely a paradise for you. The variety of shopping experiences in Bangkok goes far beyond a stroll in a mall or a morning spent browsing a market. Shopping in Bangkok is a day-and-night activity that runs parallel with the best in the West, while also giving a flavour of the cultural uniqueness of the East.

In spite of the city having its downsides like the hot weather, the intense traffic jam and pollution, the political instability, Bangkok is the place for you where if you are looking to make a difference in the lives of students and absorb a new culture altogether and make pleasant memories.
