AIFS Abroad: Intern Abroad in Italy

This was the best experience ever. I loved it and had so much fun. I was surrounded by the best people and Antonella and Amanda rocked. I highly recommend this program. They offer you everything g you will ever need and more. I can’t recommend this program enough. It literally rocked my socks off and made me grow in so many ways. I got to experience the true feeling of living abroad and now I want to come back and live here because of this program. This rocks. Glibal experience rocks. Love my life.

I am so grateful for my abroad experience in Milan! I went without knowing anyone and made so many new friends. I got to travel and see so many new amazing places. My internship taught me so much about the fashion industry and has prepared me to pursue a career in the fashion industry once I graduate. I am so grateful my experience. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Milan will always hold a special place in my heart. I can’t wait to come back one day. Thank you global experiences for everything!

They made the experience so smooth and fun!! Anything that we needed they were there for us no questions asked. I’m so happy I was able to get into this program. I would definitely recommend it for anyone that has been thinking about study abroad. We had a lot of freedom and we’re able to really immerse in the culture. The events put on were fun and got us to meet the other people in the program. The apartments were safe and nice, we all got our own space. It was easy to make friends and we all got super close super fast!

I absolutely loved my summer in Milan so much! Learning about the new culture and getting to experience life in this city was the best experience I could’ve asked for. Amanda and Antonella were the most amazing on site coordinator! They were able to help us integrate and get the best out of our experience! I can not say enough about how much they helped me feel at home and comfortable in such a new environment. They were there every step of the way and made it such an easy adjustment. I love Milan so much and will miss this city with my whole heart.

Not only was I paired so well with my employer and roommates, each week was special. From traveling to new place and meeting new people, I learned so much every day. Amanda and Antonella were so encouraging and accommodating. I would do it again if I could!! I now know I want to do fashion marketing because of the clarification from this program. These are memories I will cherish forever. My favorite memory was taking a pasta making class in Florence with my roommates! I learned so much about Italy and the culture.

Overall I think the program provides a little bit of everything, it was a great experience and im very glad I did it, I think my advisors did any amazing job and helped me in any way they could along with my internship and housing accommodations were great. The travel I did outside the program was great and allowed me to explore and see the world as I wanted, I think the social scene is very flexible and comfortable to each there own. I learned a lot and think This internship is just right for people who want to see the world and experience it in a
perfect amount of time

My experience in Milan was nothing short of phenomenal. The program/trip itself was great but the best part had to be the friends I made. Everyone is so kind, warm, and welcoming. Whether I see them again or not (and I hope I do see at least some of them again) they will always hold a special place in my heart. Additionally, experiencing many different aspects of the culture of Italy was amazing, whether it be eating truly authentic Italian food, learning the language, looking at art, or learning about the history of the country.

This was genuinely such an amazing experience! The staff is so friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. They have several steps in place that ensure that you feel and genuinely are prepared for all steps of the internship process, as well as all the shocks you may experience living in a new country. The housing was exceptional, being very close to the main parts of the city and in a safe and clean area. The additional excursions that they plan in your city are also so fun and a great way to experience touristy activities one may not have access to otherwise.
