I felt so welcome and safe

The checklist online was really useful for making sure I had completed all of the tasks before I left. I enjoyed the most giving tours to tourists around the mariposario. I think I gained confidence and communication skills that will be extremely useful further on in my career. I also improved my Spanish a lot of I look forward to working on it when I am home and using it for a future job.

The internship has contributed towards my personal and professional development.

The thing I enjoyed most during the internship was the feeling of being immersed in a different culture and learning new things about something I very much enjoy. The internship has contributed towards my personal development by allowing me to interact with different people and understand more of a culture that I wouldn´t have understood as much by simply travelling there for a holiday. I was able to develop my social skills and intrapersonal skills. It also contributed to my professional development by teaching me how organizations are built on teamwork, how meaningful projects come together over time, and how there are a lot of people who share my passion for the conservation of our natural environments.

My questions were answered and I was able to get a clear path to success in my internship.

My questions were answered and I was able to get a clear path to success in my internship. My host family was very welcoming and comforting; they took really good care of us and I hope to be able to visit them once again in the future. The locals that I talked to and other interns from other countries made the experience very enjoyable.
