My internship with Connect-123 was an incredible experience. Connect-123 provided me with excellent support both before arriving in Cape Town and whilst I was there. I spent two months working for a venture capital firm that provided specialist advisory services to technology companies and entrepreneurs. The guys at my work were all very knowledgeable and I definitely learnt a lot from working with them. South Africa itself is a beautiful country with an unbelievable range of activities – it is impossible to be bored there! Whether you fancy hiking Table Mountain, exploring the world-famous wineries at Stellenbosch, enjoying stunning views at Cape Point, relaxing on the beach at Camps Bay, visiting historical places such as Robben Island, seeing wildlife on a safari or doing the world’s highest bungee jump at the Garden Route, there really is something for everyone here. And Connect-123’s well organised social calendar makes it easy for you to see Cape Town during the day and at night (the nightlife is amazing by the way!) whilst at the same time meeting all the other interns. Overall, my Cape Town experience was definitely the best summer of my life. I made a number of great friendships and left with some truly unforgettable memories. Much of this was down to Connect-123, who I cannot recommend highly enough. They will go out of their way to help you find an internship that is tailored specifically to your needs. If you have any questions before or during your internship, they will do everything they can to give you an answer. I could not have asked for anything more – this summer not only met my expectations but exceeded them several times over!
