Find yourself in China

Review
I finished high school and have no clue about what to do next. I thought that to work abroad for some months could be fun and at the same time a valuable experience.
I found GoAbroadChina and compared to other companies, which offer basically the same kind of products, has the most competitive prices and was the fastest to answer my questions.
Accommodation: I choose to stay in a host family because I wanted to be closer to Chinese culture. It was great, maybe a little bit awkward at the beginning (my level of Chinese was really low, we had to use gestures to understand each other). I became part of the family and when I got time I spend time chatting with them. I know much more about Chinese culture now.
Internship: as I didn't really know which kind of job could be more suitable for me, I asked GAC staff who helped me a lot. I studied scientific (IT, telecommunications) subjects during high school, so I decided that an internship in a company in that field.
Mandarin course: you don't really need to speak fluent Chinese. Anyway, I wanted to get closer to Chinese culture, that's why I decided to take some classes of Mandarin with a private tutor GAC put in contact with.
