Internship of a lifetime

Definitely one of the best experiences of my life. I gained valuable life skills over the 10 week internship. My project was tailored to a subject field I was very much interested in and I was able to see the beginnings of the Scottish Referendum from an inside perspective of Parliament. The one on one interactions between you and your MSP is always an added bonus to a wonderful time abroad.
