Review

Okay so the first thing I can testify to is that Adelante Abroad is absolutely legit. My biggest fear with these things are being scammed-Adelante Abroad has been professional the whole way through. The interview process is quite smooth and the contacts are timely and very sweet. No disputes about money or any hidden fees or anything like that. They are also very affordable considering what other programs charge which is another reason I picked them. I like that they're not affiliated with any sort of university, they're a unique way to study abroad after college-an experience I always wanted but wasn't able to do until now! I also really love their flexibility-for the internship program you can pick how many months you want to intern, and they tailor the program to you. One bit of advice I would give is if you're picky about the sort of internship you want to do to be as involved as possible in the process, and respond timely to their emails.
Something really nice they provide is a personal chaffeur from the airport when you land to where you'll be staying, which was so great not having to navigate foreign transportation after an international flight. Another thing they provided is two weeks of Spanish immeresion classes before your internship. Both of these things were included in the price.
For me personally, my internship was in Music in Madrid. I'm a singer and wanted experience in the business side of things. For my particular internship, a large part of the work I did was online, so I took advantage and traveled to Portugal, Germany, and Morocco! Mandatory events I had to be in Madrid were musical events, some of which took place in churches and castles. I got along great with both my boss and my roommate thank goodness. I was provided really nice accomodations with a working professional near a metro in a very safe part of town.
One thing I will say is this internship works well if you're very independent. They do not hold your hand and fill your schedule with things, so if you're very adventurous and free, like me,this program will be a good fit for you. If you want a set schedule with things constantly planned out for you, maybe not.
If you're looking for something legit and affordable in a Spanish-speaking country to boost your resume and travel, I would recommend Adelante Abroad.
