I had a really wonderful time in Cape Town doing an 8-week internship at a human rights organization. Going into my experience, I was a little uncertain about what exactly I wanted to do, and which organizations I would be comfortable working with. Connect-123 did a really excellent job of listening to my ideas and hesitations and linked me with a really incredible organization. All of my peers also really enjoyed where they worked—Connect-123 has an excellent network in Cape Town and is well situated to place you in roles you might be interested in. Connect-123 also did an excellent job of ensuring that I had all of the resources to thrive in Cape Town. The building I lived in was well located in the town, and the social events worked to build relationships with the other interns. Also, the Coordinator was extremely helpful and available for concerns. I felt supported, and like I had a safety net if I needed it. I had an incredible 8 weeks in Cape Town. I was able to explore an idyllic city in my free time and got to do impactful, fulfilling work through my internship. I highly recommend Connect-123 to other students and peers looking to do internships abroad.
