Inside the internship
I was set up with a wonderful housing and internship placement. I was able to make connections with my boss and coworkers that I still keep to this day, and my Spanish improved in leaps and bounds.

Krista Rodriguez
Animal Science Intern
My Spanish improved so much, and almost everyone in the city understands that you are learning and appreciates that you are trying. So if you are worried about the language barrier, don't be! It is hard and sometimes frustrating, but it gets easier.
