I came to Cape Town not knowing what to expect. What I experienced, however, far exceeded any expectations I could have had. Connect-123 not only places individuals in internships that suit their unique interests, they constantly strive to provide their interns with as broad a perspective of Cape Town as they can. From organizing day trips to popular tourist destinations and local events to providing a constant flow of volunteer opportunities, Connect-123 always has the best interests of their interns in mind. I would encourage anyone who is interested in performing meaningful work, learning about different cultures, and interacting with a diverse group of wonderful people to seek out a placement with Connect-123!
