Internships In Bali With Think Pacific

This summer, I had the incredible opportunity to participate in a Global Team Internship in Bali, Indonesia. Through a partnership between local businesses and Think Pacific, I was able to provide comprehensive consultancy services tailored to address each business's specific needs.

During my time in Bali, Think Pacific encouraged me to fully immerse myself in Balinese culture, allowing me to embrace the island's traditions and way of life while exploring its stunning landscapes with new friends. This cultural immersion was an integral part of my experience, enriching my understanding and appreciation of the local community.

One of the most valuable life skills I gained from this experience was adopting a 'just go for it' mindset. This approach has empowered me to pursue my goals with greater determination. The project instilled in me a resilience and confidence that I will carry into all aspects of my life.
My favourite part of the internship was undoubtedly working with the incredible partners of Think Pacific. The collaborative projects we engaged in were both challenging and rewarding, set against the beautiful backdrop of Bali. The blend of professional growth and the island's natural beauty made for an unforgettable experience.

For students considering a project with Think Pacific, my top tip is simple: do it! Think Pacific delivers projects in both Fiji and Bali, each carefully designed to promote community development and cultural immersion. As a BSc Education student, the Global Team Internship was closely aligned with my future career prospects. My biggest advice is to find a project that excites you and just go for it. The experiences you will gain, the people you will meet, and the personal growth you will achieve are invaluable. Embrace the adventure and make the most of every opportunity – it’s a decision you won’t regret.

During my global team internship in Bali, I had the incredible opportunity to work with people from diverse backgrounds, which broadened my perspective and enhanced my ability to collaborate across cultures. Presenting to local businesses helped me sharpen my communication skills, adapting my message for different audiences. The experience not only allowed me to build strong professional connections with fellow candidates but also fostered valuable relationships with businesses. This blend of cultural exchange, hands-on presentations, and networking made the internship an enriching and rewarding experience.

I spent 5 weeks in Bali with Think Pacific this summer and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend it!
Immersing myself in another culture was something completely new for me. With the support of leaders from TP, I got to work and collaborate with local businesses, entrepreneurs, and of course other students from all over the world.
I would recommend this experience to anyone looking to broaden their horizons and learn something new about themselves and a new part of the world. I will never forget my summer :)

I enjoyed my time on placement with Think Pacific. There was some kinks that still need worked out, however I attended during their first year operating in Indonesia. The local staff were very supportive and insightful when teaching us about their culture. All the homestay families were incredible, really integrating all of us (even if we weren't living with them) into their daily lives as if we were family. The placement aspect was also good, however it is not a clinical setting. You are helping mental health in other ways, so this is something to keep in mind when applying. It is a great opportunity to become more aware of mental health practices across cultures and widen your own understanding of the world.
