Internships in Honduras

Honduras is a small Central American country with a beautiful landscape, tropical climate, and population just exceeding 8 million citizens. It also remains one of the poorest countries in the world, plagued by political conflict and social inequality for much of the past century. An internship abroad in Honduras then is especially valuable on two fronts; it allows the intern abroad in Honduras to gain professional experience in their field of choice, while also contributing positively to local development on a variety of fronts.

A Guide to Interning Abroad in Honduras

Locations

Honduras is a tiny nation with a diverse mountainous landscape in the heart of Central America, sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Caribbean Sea to the east. While there are a few major cities in Honduras, it remains a relatively unindustrialized country and so much of the population continues to reside in more remote rural areas (where it is very much possible to pursue an internship abroad).

With a population exceeding 1.3 million people, Tegucigalpa is the nation’s capital and largest city, and so it is not surprisingly also the most popular destination where to intern abroad in Honduras. Tegucigalpa was founded in the 16th century by Spanish explorers and today survives as the major center of political, economic, and cultural activity in Honduras. It also continues to suffer from major problems of poverty and infrastructural inefficiency, making the efforts of the intern abroad in Honduras all the more valuable.

Other popular cities where you can intern abroad in Honduras include San Pedro Sula, El Progreso, and La Ceiba. These cities are much smaller than Tegucigalpa and so can provide for a more relaxed backdrop to your internship abroad in Honduras, if that is what you are looking for.

After my arrival in Israel I had a great day in Jerusalem with coordinator Yan. He showed me the city of Jerusalem in another way that impressed me very much. Then we went to Tel Aviv for the project. The manager of the bakery Assaf is a very open, kind and talented person. We had a lot of fun working.The working hours were very flexible, so I could arrange my free time and, for example, go to the Dead Sea or take a tour with Yan through Tel Aviv. In the bakery I helped to prepare the recipes, operated the dishwasher, baked cakes and much more...I think we were a very good team! Outside of the project, I met many other travellers in the young - people Abraham hostel in Tel Aviv. We went out together in the evening and had a great time! In summary, I am very grateful for this experience! Also thanks to the Go Eco team who made this possible for me!
