Spain Summer 2026

I was with the Intern Group for an internship this summer and I have to say it was one of the best experiences of my entire life. For the cost (especially compared to other programs), it was totally worth it. I loved the Spanish culture and workplace I interned at and I got to meet up with people from completely different parts of the world, which was enlightening to say the least. Highly recommend it (especially if you have a scholarship/grants that can pay for it) and would do it again if I could.

My experience with the Intern group

I am incredibly grateful to The Intern Group for giving me the opportunity to intern in Japan this summer. It was an experience that I will never forget. Throughout my internship, I learned so much that I know will help me in the future. I drastically improved my communication skills and became much more confident after meeting and working with people from all over the world. Everyone I met through the program was incredibly wonderful to work with. The experience allowed me to grow as a person, while giving me the opportunity to experience Japanese culture. 10/10 I would highly recommend the program to anyone looking to gain meaningful work experience and get out of there comfort zone

What was your funniest moment?
I would say my funniest moment was definitely singing karaoke to the Japanese salary men.
Pros
  • Met people from all over the world
  • Invaluable work experience working in a different country

A rewarding experience

Everyone from The Intern Group was super helpful and easy to contact! Easy to meet other interns due to events and a welcome meet-up at the start. Really nice accommodation and good location with easy public transport to the city centre. Clear check-in / check-out process. The internship was a great learning experience, everyone from the company was really welcoming and willing to help me out. I always had something to do and was given clear instructions for tasks. Would recommend to anyone looking for more experience!

Internship experience in Bangkok

My internship experience in Bangkok with The Intern Group was extremely valuable and rewarding. Bangkok is an amazing city, and living here gave me the opportunity to experience a completely different culture while growing both personally and professionally.
The Intern Group organised many activities throughout the program, which made it easy to explore the city, meet other interns, and make the most of the experience. Our program managers, Quynh and Nath, were always friendly, helpful, and available whenever we needed support. They regularly checked in with us and made sure everything ran smoothly, which made us feel supported throughout the whole experience.
I also really appreciated being placed in a professional company where I could gain practical experience, develop new skills, and contribute to real projects related to my field and future career.
Overall, it was a great experience that I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to gain professional experience while living abroad.

Summer in Madrid 🇪🇸

Spending a summer away in Madrid was truly a surreal experience. I think for me the most enjoyable part of this journey was to actually step outside of my comfort zone as travelling to a new country, language, environment on your own is certainly a challenge, but one I think everyone should experience! I highly recommend this program if you are someone who loves to travel and explore new cultures, however I’d recommend this program even more to those who would like to challenge themselves, step outside of their comfort zones and build themselves as a person and as a professional.

Summer in Madrid

I really enjoyed my time in Madrid. This was my first time in Europe, and it did not disappoint. Whether it was the people or the places, they all made this trip eventful and a lifelong memory.

Before I left, I honestly didn't know what to expect. I had heard stories from friends who studied abroad, but nothing quite prepares you for actually living in a new country, navigating a different culture, and figuring out how to get around a city you've never seen before. Madrid welcomed me in a way I didn't anticipate. The city has this incredible rhythm to it: long, slow dinners that start late in the evening, a plaza on nearly every corner where people gather just to talk, and a pace of life that somehow feels both relaxed and full of energy at the same time. I quickly fell into that rhythm myself, and by the end of the program it felt less like a place I was visiting and more like a place I had actually lived.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
If I had to pick the most surprising part of the whole trip, it would easily be the weekend a group of us traveled to Pamplona for San Fermin. Seeing the running of the bulls in person, and being surrounded by a tradition that's been passed down for centuries, was unlike anything I had ever witnessed. The energy in the streets, the history behind the festival, and the sheer scale of the celebration made it a moment I'll be talking about for years.
Pros
  • Good Food
  • New People
  • Beautiful Views
What other participants should know
  • Housing was rough sometimes
  • language barrier
  • missing friends and home

Great experience

I loved my time in Madrid, 2 months is almost the perfect amount of time to be away and it is a beautiful city. The intern group did a great job of answering all my questions and concerns. I met so many new people as well. I lived in a house of 20 people and they were all super nice people and connections that I will have for a long time. The house we lived in was also super nice we had our own bed and bathrooms as well as air conditioning in all the rooms. We did have to change places a couple times but the end result was a good living situation.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
I think the most surprising thing I did was being able to travel so much, my friends went to beautiful places like Ibiza as well as many other cities in Spain.
Pros
  • New Friends
  • Seeing new things
  • More work experience
What other participants should know
  • Housing difficulties
  • Homesick
  • Very hot

Summer in Madrid

My time in Madrid was the best three months of my life; I learned so much about myself and was able to meet a bunch of new people. I loved how easygoing Madrid was, from the transportation to how nice the people were. I was able to experience the Madrid culture and try new foods. It took a little bit to get used to the 9-hour time difference and the late dinners. I also loved how easy it was to travel around Europe because Madrid has easy access to trains and flights. Lastly, I had the best roommates and made lifelong memories.
The Intern Group was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. More specifically, Lalita and Corinne were so helpful while being in Madrid. Anytime I had a question, they were able to answer it very quickly. Also, getting to be in a group with other interns made the experience a lot easier because we were able to connect and relate to each other's experiences. I was able to make lifelong friends with some of the people in the group.
The Bubble (the company that I worked with) made it very welcoming and allowed me to ask any questions that I was unsure about. They gave me many hands-on tasks, which I am grateful for because I gained a lot of experience.
Overall, Madrid makes it extremely easy to adapt to and is a great place to do an internship. There is always something to do, and you will 100% make lifelong memories and friendships.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
If I did this all over again, I would try to pack lightly because I did a lot of shopping in Madrid. I would also try to meet new people sooner and build those connections because I made a lot of friends within the last month, as I felt more comfortable.
Pros
  • The intern group made it easier to make friends and explore Madrid outside of work.
  • I gained international work experience, built professional skills, and met people from different backgrounds
  • Although I was already fluent in Spanish, daily conversations in Madrid helped me perfect my pronunciation, natural expressions, and confidence
What other participants should know
  • housing could be better location wise and make sure it has all the amenities that were in the contract
  • pricing of the internship is quite expensive
  • I wish group outings were told a few weeks in advance
