Great experience

This roots internship in Cambodia was very nice. Roots and company helped me a lot to organize everything even including my accommodation before I arrived in Cambodia. As a communications intern, I've done many tasks, but the main focuses were creating content, writing posts, and photography. Since I'm currently studying communication, it was a great experience to apply the knowledge and skills I've learned from university so far to the professional field.
