I went to Israel for agriculture internship for 2 years from 2019 to 2021. It was a great opportunity for me to learn more about agriculture and how can be horticultural production can integrate with aquatic or fish farming. Apart from that I learned about Jewish culture and pay visit to different places as written in the Bible about Israel
I thought that living in Australia for this aquaculture internship would cost me so much. Glad to be proved wrong. I liked that there is a wide range of housing options, provided to me by Dr. Adams. The hotel has so many amenities too. I enjoy that it also has a pool for tenants and that they have nice showers. As to cost of living, it's fantastic. My college savings aren't totally used up. Good internship, over all.
Ever since I was a kid, I really have this burning passion for the environment and marine ecosystem, so when my mom knew about this internship she really took the time to message the IGS staff to accommodate me. luckily I passed the standards and screening of IGS and they assisted me in every way possible. i am grateful because I got to see hawaii in person and got to visit Haleakala National Park and the Waikiki beach. truly an amazing internship for me!
my internship in aquaculture is a good way to spare time. i am interested in this field and I took different internships abt it already. good thing that IGS also gives imtermship positions even to those who already graduated, not students anymore, like me. good people and good experience
We shared our English language skills and helped disabled persons help themselves by increasing their independence. On weekends, we do some trips too. And Koh Lipe. Chiang Mai, and Phuket are my ultimate favorites. :) Thank you IGS for a very interesting gap year! Thanks Dr. Adams and thanks to my mentor Miss Jia.
I am so happy that I took this internship!! I gained invaluable experience in disability services, specifically for those with issues in mental health. My patience was tested and my compassion too but it is well worth it. I can see them move on from a depressive episode and I am so proud of them. Making a lasting, positive impact on the lives of individuals with disabilities is pure bliss.
My placement is geared towards the care of disabled people in Thailand. Personally I was assigned as an administrative staff for physically disabled people. They cant walk since they are born. The facility is very supportive of them. We taught them how to speak English and created presentations for them. It is so fulfilling.
