Awesome Alternative

I had the opportunity to complete the Animal Rescue Internship virtual due to COVID not allowing anyone to travel. Although I would have loved to have done this in person, it was a great alternative way for those who would prefer to do virtual or are unable to travel. I was a bit unsure when I signed up since I had no idea how this would work virtually. It turned out great and the Vet and her staff were all amazing and made it not only informative, but also enjoyable. I took 2 courses and 1 internship with Loop Abroad this summer and I LOVED all of it. If your on the fence about it, I give you the urge to just try it out. You will not be disappointed with any of their Internships or courses! Well worth every penny.
