An enriching experience

I wanted to do an internship in an English speaking African country and when I found out about VACorps I immediately applied because I always wanted to visit South Africa. It is a little scary to come to a city where you don't know anyone and it felt good to know that the VACorps family was there to guide me. What I loved the most was the combination of gaining work experience while discovering a new city. A beautiful city at that! I will miss the views of the mountain so very much! I found myself more adventurous than I thought, and there is so much to explore and do in the city. I could not have wished for a better place internship site. My site has the most positive working environment I've ever seen and the time I spent there made me grow so much!
