Take me back to summer 2021!

I don’t even know where to begin. I did an internship with AIP in South Korea and this is going to sound cliche but it was such a life changing experience!

It all started when a friend of mine told me about this internship they did in South Korea the previous summer. She did an internship in Seoul for 4 months and told me all about her experience. We both study business development and she told me that she learned so much during her 4 months. She said that the experience could be used for university credits as well (which is something that is required for our course).

So I did some more research and decided to apply. I landed an interview and the staff were really friendly. I wasn’t sure yet about what I wanted to do but they gave me multiple options as well.

The whole application process went extremely well and before I knew it I was already in South Korea.

When I got to South Korea I was amazed by everything, like I was blown away. I had seen lots of videos on South Korea and this definitely met my expectations.

I did an internship at a journalism company and loved every minute of it. From writing lifestyle articles to travel articles, this experience really allowed me to immerse myself in the local culture. My supervisor was super friendly and helpful and gave me valuable advice that I can take with me.

My accommodation in South Korea was great as well. It was only a 15 min ride from my apartment. Had convenience stores and everything I needed nearby like what more could I ask for. The only problem though is that I did have a few issues with my room such as the ac not working properly but they were so quick with fixing it.

I also met people from all over the world and this is one of the reasons that made this experience so great. It truly was a global experience and I can happily say that I’ve made friends from all over the globe.

I am so grateful for this experience and it’s one I will cherish forever. I met so many great people, really built my professional network and am grateful for the help I received by AIP. Can definitely recommend this experience to anyone. Please take me back to summer 2021!
