An Amazing Experience!

I had the most amazing time during my internship in Colombia, I loved the work I did there and felt so accomplished in my placement. My coordinator Mariana was the most amazing person and we were so lucky to have her to help, she was so willing to assist with all issues and planned such amazing excursions. My experience was so life changing and has made it so clear to me that I want to continue to travel in my life.

I thought I was going to hate it, I was so wrong, I loved it

As the title said, after completing all the sign up requirements I questioned why I was doing it. I had such extreme homesickness before I even left, but being in Colombia was the best thing for me. M & V were the best, I made real friends with the other interns and I got to go and have an experience I would have never considered for myself. Colombia is beautiful, the people are amazing, being back home now I miss it and my friends so much. This experience was worth it.

More than just an internship

Interning in Medellín for 12 weeks through the Intern Group was a wonderful experience. While the internship itself was not the most demanding of placements, I still gained valuable insights into a different industry, and it was a great way to experience the work culture of another country and meet local people. Whatever shortfalls there were in the actual internship itself, they were well and truly made up for by the cultural learnings and the social connections made through the program. Huge kudos to the Colombia Intern Group team for always looking out for all the interns and organising so many social activities to get to know other interns and to feel right at home in a new country.

    In today’s globalized world the option to study and work abroad is not only easier, it’s slowly becoming a necessary consideration in our lives. As a political science student this is even truer in a field that offers incredible opportunities across the world, but which are also very competitive. I felt it was important to sample at least some kind of work abroad before I consider a future career.

    I am a more mature person, not a typical intern. I had been out of the IT industry for some years after being in business, and I really wanted to get back in, but I had little recent experience. I had owned a business for some years and hadn’t had the chance to travel, so an international program gave me the chance to travel as well.
