I loved every minute of my time in Cape Town. I was able to gain so much experience in my field while obtaining life experiences that I only dreamt of having. I don’t believe words can express the love I have gained for South Africa.

I gained valuable experience in my field while working for a human rights organization and in the South African Parliament, all while experiencing the unique culture of South Africa and making lifelong friends!

I was exposed to a wide range of neurological disorders and now I have a whole new appreciation for neurology. Overall I had a positive learning experience and I would highly recommend Connect-123!

I spent my internship in Cape Town, South Africa. It was the most amazing three months! I was able to gain experience in my field while experiencing a beautiful new country at the same time.

Under the supervision of a CCLS, I was given the autonomy to practice hands-on therapeutic interventions and procedural preparation to meet the diverse psychosocial needs of hospitalized children and their families. I was able to collaborate with other practicum students for ideas, and work together to do activities at bedside and in play areas that incorporated the whole family unit.

The two months I spent in Cape Town were two of the best months of my life and I cannot wait to go back. From the connections I made to everything that I saw and did both at work and outside of it, I was able to accomplish all that I went there for and more.

My six month internship in Buenos Aires surpassed all my expectations. I would definitely recommend Buenos Aires and Connect-123 to anyone who asks!

My internship in Cape Town at a nonprofit institute dedicated to environmental conservation & education taught me about sustainable development.

Having a resilient and qualified support network is essential for a successful abroad experience, and the staff at Connect-123 are willing to go out of their way for you to reach your goals and happiness.

Connect-123 not only ‘connected’ me to an incredible professional opportunity, but also to amazing people in Cape Town. I worked at a media-based NGO that uses documentary-style filmmaking to catalyze change on a global level. I was able to learn film editing, work on digital marketing projects, build a proposal to incubate small businesses in townships around Cape Town, and form strong relationships with everyone at my workplace.
