Review
I had an international marketing internship in Barcelona over the spring term and was placed with a start up entrepreneur networking community for my time there. My role involved managing social media, and helping to organize company events. I learned how to quickly navigate a completely different type of work environment and communicate in ways that were a bit out of my comfort zone. I think I adapted really well to the Spanish work/living style and felt like I fit in pretty well after about 2 weeks of being there. Because my company was international, we communicated in English which meant that I wasn't able to practice my Spanish as much as I had hoped. The thing about the program that I didn't enjoy was the living situation. Because it was individual dorms where we weren't allowed guests and freedom it felt very isolating and made me feel depressed.
