An Amazing Experience!

September 18, 2025by: Elissa Gee - CanadaProgram: International Internship Programs in Colombia

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.
