During my time in Cape Town I was based in a fantastic government hospital and got to work with some incredible doctors and nurses. I observed open heart surgeries, organ donation surgeries and transplants.

I had the opportunity to travel to Buenos Aires for my summer in 2016. I had experiences I would have never gotten as a tourist. It was amazing being able to really be a part of the Argentinian community, which is full of incredibly helpful and kind people.

I interned for 3 months as a teacher’s assistant at a preschool in Buenos Aires. It was a super great experience. I would certainly recommend a Connect-123 internship to anyone looking for an educational and fun experience that can be as structured or as free as you wish.

Connect-123 provides a solid support system while giving you enough space to explore and learn how to navigate a foreign country on your own. The skills and experiences I have taken away from Cape Town will stay with me for the rest of my life.

While I was in Cape Town, I learned more about myself, became friends with people from all over the world, and immersed myself in a country with a complex history — an experience I believe everyone should have before jumping into a full-time job.

For me, this was not just an internship program, it was a life experience. I had to grow on so many levels and i can already tell that now, I’m a changed person. The architecture internship was better than I expected, I was working with a team of passionate people.

Through Connect-123, I had the very unique opportunity to be involved in multiple internships. Using the skills I learned from my experiences with Connect-123, I am now teaching English in Chile.

Last spring, I spent three months living in Buenos Aires, Argentina and interning at a local hospital through the program, Connect-123. The program is really well run and organized. The local Connect-123 representative is really friendly and always available to help.

My internship was the highlight of my time in Argentina. I had the opportunity to work with children ages 7-14 as a athletics assistant and I had a great time doing it. Connect-123 was also very helpful in helping me travel to other parts of the country.

Connect-123 was a huge help during the whole time. The application process was very easy and fast and everyone involved was really friendly. This really helped improving my English and was a very interesting way of gaining new skills in the field of education.
