I’m so glad I found Intern Abroad HQ.

As a university student looking for an internship that would really make an impact, I’m so glad I found Intern Abroad HQ. From the start, their team was so helpful and made everything easy to understand and showed me the right steps to follow which took a lot of stress off my shoulders. The internship gave me the chance to understand how building on skills that I've learnt can be used in real world application. It also helped me grow personally because I got to live in a completely unique location and experience a culture that’s different from my own. What I appreciated most was how supported I felt the whole time as it made me comfortable to make the most of the experience. If you’re a student wanting to build useful skills and have an amazing experience abroad, I definitely recommend Intern Abroad HQ.

The Marine Biology & Reef Conservation internship empowered me through the hands-on experience, problem-solving skills, and teamwork I developed during the program. I gained confidence in new environments, overcame challenges to strengthened my ability to adapt and learn quickly to thrive outside of my comfort zone to prepare me for future success in my field. It was also an amazing experience to meet so many different people while learning how to scuba dive in the beautiful reef and oceans.
