As a Connect-123 intern, I had the privilege to work with an educational non-profit. This internship gave me the experience that I was hoping to have. I loved Cape Town but most importantly, the friendships I formed were the highlight of my time in the city.

Spending my summer with Connect-123 abroad was incredibly rewarding. Not only was I able to make lifelong friends that I know I will keep in contact for years to come, but I also was able to learn and thrive in a different work environment, country, and culture where I grew truly independent

My experience in Argentina was definitely a worthwhile experience. I was able to learn, practice, and enhance my Spanish speaking skills by just everyday life and by attending classes the organization suggested.

Connect-123 made my dream internship of observing doctors at both general and pediatric hospitals abroad possible. Buenos Aires was a wonderful place to live and I would not have felt as welcomed and as confident in the city if it weren’t for Connect-123.

Connect-123 was an incredible summer program. Not only did they arrange a research internship with a top university in Dublin, but they also provided fun opportunities while socializing with other members of the program! I would highly recommend this program for any student!

My experience in Shanghai was absolutely amazing and life changing and I could not have done it without the great service provided by Connect-123. My internship site was a great match because I was able to help the company grow and improve by utilizing the skills I already had.

Connect-123 gave me the amazing opportunity to complete my child life practicum in South Africa for the month of July. I interned with an amazing group at a children’s hospital in Cape Town.

My three-month stay in Cape Town was nothing short of life-changing — and it would not have been possible without Connect-123’s organization, support and accommodation. My internship allowed me to link much of my academic theory to practice.

Cape Town is a melting pot of cultures, a city with so much history and so much beauty I am already planning on coming back for a visit. So incredibly thankful for the opportunity that Connect-123 has provided.

Being in Cape Town, South Africa as a part of Connect-123 was by far the best 4 months of my life thus far. I cannot think of a better place for an internship and am already looking forward to the day when I can make it back to visit!
