Review

My internship with Meiji Internships was not only a valuable experience for my future career but also an eye-opening opportunity to live life in a different corner of the world. I worked for a fantastic company in Seoul, which allowed me to gain work experience in the industry I care about. I conducted research, wrote reports, translated documents and assisted my colleagues in day to day duties. While the tasks I did were amazing, the best part of my internship was the people. I made so many awesome friends from all around the world with whom I share one thing in common: our love for traveling, living abroad and sense of adventure. I had so many eye-opening conversations with these people and talked about things I never thought about back at home. just wow! I can highly recommend this experience. Go ahead, intern abroad!

Advice:
- When packing bring a towel and tissues with you, so you have some for when you arrive
- Don’t overpack. Shopping is amazing here! Also, don’t bother bringing much makeup. It probably is way better in Korea anyways.
- Honestly, I did not cook much because it is super affordable to eat out in Korea.
- Learn basic korean and learn to read it! It will help you tremendously!
- Bring deodorant! Korea has very limited supply of deodorant, particularly stick deodorant (hard to find and expensive, so stock up before going!)
- Have lots of fun! I envy you and wish I could do it all over again! *-*
