Mente Argentina: International Business Intern, Buenos Aires

I would recommend Mente to anybody looking to gain experience abroad whilst enjoying the local culture and creating new friendships. My experience with Mente was very good, they were more than helpful when I encountered an issue with a local and i enjoyed playing the football every week (which is included in the program) that was ran by Sam. It was well worth the money for both the experience and all the events they host during the week which are free for Mente participants! My friend also joined along sometimes as he was travelling for 14 days with me and they were more than accommodating to him too. I choose to do a business internship over the course of 9 weeks, I created many events for both locals and students looking to make new friends or experience new interest. I highly recommend doing the tango or joining the football sessions!

My name is Jerel and I am from the UK. I did and internship of international business and trade and my experience was great here. I had a good time and I learned a lot of Spanish, it has really improved. I would say that one of the best immersion techniques you can do to just full blown make it in the Spanish or Latin world is to take Spanish lessons by living in a city like Buenos Aires, where you are tempted to really understand things because you really fear of missing out. One of my favorite things about Buenos Aires was the nightlife, everywhere I went is opened later than in Europe, which was different and totally amazing. Steak here is amazing, best in the world I had so far. I definitely recommend anyone to join Mente and check out their information resources, because they will help you with anything you have to do. I had the greatest time here, I am already missing Buenos Aires.
