Doing my Child Life Practicum abroad has provided me with experiences that I never could’ve had in the United States. It is evident that the Connect-123 team really has a passion for their jobs and care about each and every one of us.

My experience in Buenos Aires has been nothing short of incredible! Connect-123 set me up with a fantastic host family and a great internship at a non-profit, providing me with an experience that went far beyond that which I would have had simply as a tourist.

I had the pleasure of living and working in Barcelona through Connect-123. It has truly been the experience of a lifetime. I interned at a property management software startup where I learned the ins and outs of what it takes to build, market, and maintain a growing business.

Interning in Dublin was one of the greatest decisions I have ever made. I had the opportunity to live in a different city and work for a great non-profit organization! I made so many friends through the Connect-123 program.

My experience with my internship was amazing and a once in a lifetime opportunity. Through my job I was able to become more confident in my Spanish and absolutely more fluent, as well as improve my professional skills.

My participation with Connect-123 has been one of most unique experiences of my life. Connect-123 gave me the opportunity to go to a place I never would have thought to visit on my own.

Overall, my experience has been incredible. My host family has been very accommodating, my time at the language school was incredible, and my internship has been a great experience that fits with both of my majors at University.

I would have never imagined how much I would have ended up getting involved in all of it: the country, the culture, the people and the issues regarding human rights. This involvement was also helped by the side activities organized by Connect-123.

I’ve learned about myself, and my goals for myself – both personal and my professional thanks to my internship. I highly recommend this program for anyone interested in seeing different parts of the world, learning different cultures, and learning more about themselves.

Connect-123 provided me with the chance to travel abroad and live in a large city, both of which were firsts for me. To this I am forever grateful because they allowed me to experience a whole new culture and lifestyle that I believe has made me a better person.
