Anthropology Internships in Greece

This experience gave me a greater understanding of how organisations can work across borders to support communities. One of the most meaningful parts of my internship was learning about healthcare initiatives supporting refugee communities and international partnerships providing medical care to people affected by conflict and displacement. Seeing how resources can be used to improve the lives of both citizens and non-citizens showed me the impact that advocacy, collaboration, and compassion can have. I left Valencia feeling more motivated to pursue a career where I can contribute to positive change.

What I enjoyed most about the Human Rights & NGO Support internship in South Africa was the people and the overall experience of being in a new environment. I appreciated working with supportive colleagues and being around others from different backgrounds, which made the experience more meaningful. This internship helped me grow personally by making me more open-minded and independent. Professionally, I gained experience in communication, teamwork, and working on real projects. The internship also helped confirm my interest in international development and gave me a better understanding of how the field works.

I really enjoyed working and living in Madrid, Spain and I've gained invaluable experience in the legal field that has (and hopefully will) continue to be helpful in my professional development moving forward!

The friends that I made and met through my internship as fellow interns there opened my eyes to the diverse backgrounds that Intern HQ helps connect people with. I also gained valuable perspectives on how to interact with diverse groups of people with differing abilities, ages, and culture.

InternHQ delivered an amazing internship experience, combining real-world professional development with exceptional support throughout. From the beginning onboarding procedure to the conclusion of my placement, everything was handled with care and quickness. The team was communicative and responsive, ensuring that I was matched with a placement that suited my interests and ambitions. Once in New York, I felt supported and ready to tackle both the workplace and the city itself. The placement was important, and I was assigned responsibilities that allowed me to truly contribute and learn—rather than merely observe. A special thank you to Marc, whose guidance and support were invaluable during my internship. His professionalism, support, and response helped me feel grounded and confident throughout the process. InternHQ always made me feel like they were genuinely interested in my experience. Their team was responsive, thoughtful, and clearly committed to each intern's success. I would highly suggest this program to anyone searching for a meaningful and respected internship abroad.

I had a fantastic month in Jordan filled with culturally rich experiences. I was able to meet friendly people, eat amazing food and see beautiful historical sites. Most of my time was spent at my Internship at a women’s empowerment non-profit organisation. They had a multitude of projects targeting marginalised groups in society. I specifically worked on programme meant to equip young orphaned girls with productive skills to stimulate sustainable career paths as well as using brain health exercises to promote positive self esteem’s and self images. Through supporting this project I was able to meet people from all walks of life and all different motivations which help to grow my culture competence amongst other things. I was able to see the practical work that human rights NGO’s do in an international context. This was instrumental in my personal growth but also my professional development as I was able to get an adept first hand experience in my future career path.

The best thing you need to know about Linguistic Horizons is the great support system. I often communicated with Nicole from the start of my application, my departure and all the way to the end of my internship, and she was absolutely fantastic. So nice, friendly and helpful and willing to hear you out always! I had some issues with finances and my placement and she sorted it out like nothing. I would recommend this experience not only because of the the prospects of being abroad and immersion, but for the cultural and work life that awaits you. Loved everything about my experience and I'm sure you will too!

Thank you, Angellah! I'm so glad you joined us in London!

Finding opportunities in the art & music world can be quite daunting at times, but Nicole made the process so easy! I was presented with several amazing opportunities across Europe, and I ended up working with a London firm that was a perfect match for my skill set. I really felt that Nicole took the time to get to know me and what my future career goals were, she even introduced me to other LH Alums in the music industry or others who were living in London. This experience has opened up many opportunities for me since returning to the US, I highly recommend working with Nicole to find your next adventure abroad!

Nicole and her team are wonderful. They quickly found the perfect internship for me after I spent months on my own struggling to get any response from companies abroad. I don't know if I would've gotten an internship in time if I hadn't contacted them.

Linguistic Horizons have done a good job in setting me up with an internship that matches my academic background. This is the first time I have travelled alone and lived in a foreign country. Right from the start I felt welcomed into my architecture internship experience. The first day I jumped right into hands-on tasks and learning the ins and out about French Architecture. I have learned a ton of skills that I'm now taking with me to look for a career.

Nicole helped me find an internship in my desired field, in my desired city, during my desired timelines. The company I was paired with gave me lots of flexibility over my archduke to arrange travel on long weekends. They also helped me grow and develop new skill sets. Nicole did a great job communicating and I felt supported. Awesome experience, and I highly recommend for anyone considering studying abroad/interning abroad. I would not have been able to find this internship myself, trust me I tried! Go see the world!

I started out determined to get a business internship in the fashion industry in France (but not Paris) through my own efforts. Unfortunately, I started searching a little too late and I was overwhelmed with my work, school & family commitments to be successful. Luckily, my advisors recommended Linguistic Horizons to me. They were the only company willing to find an internship for me that fit my criteria (instead of a cookie cutter position). Plus, they were able to do it on a shorter than normal time-line (2hich saved me and let me graduate on time). It turned out that the company and city that they placed me in was better than I could've ever planned and was exactly what I needed. The company was small and my supervisor understood my goals so they actually ended up teaching me everything about their business. I wasn't just a grunt, and I made professional and personal relationships that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for your review, Kelly. I'm so glad you had such a good experience! I'm also happy to hear that you found the internship to be valuable and relevant.

Linguistic Horizons provided me the best customization options going into an international internship. Nicole worked with me to ensure I found the perfect internship with me and did her best to find multiple companies for me to choose from. Not only did she pair me with a company, but she also created a means of contact with other students from America doing a European internship. Through this I found a new friend who was also interning in Berlin. The company I worked for gave me a great experience and really helped me learn a lot. During my time abroad, Nicole also ensured that all the European interns knew about any potential protests and areas we should avoid due to potential dangers. She also personally checked in to make sure we were doing alright and having a good time at our internships.

Hi Katherine, Thank you for your review! I'm so glad you had a good experience in Germany. :)

After a few phone interviews, Nicole presented me with three internship offers in industries that I told her I was passionate about. Nicole landed me the BEST internship, working for a yoga, health and wellness center in Berlin! I met so many incredible people who honestly, changed my life. Nicole and her team were always very responsive (even with the time difference) and made sure I had everything I needed, including health insurance, before I went abroad. I would highly recommend her services to any student who's feeling overwhelmed with finding that perfect internship. she's the best!
