Review

I had an international marketing internship in Barcelona over the spring term and was placed with a start up entrepreneur networking community for my time there. My role involved managing social media, and helping to organize company events. I learned how to quickly navigate a completely different type of work environment and communicate in ways that were a bit out of my comfort zone. I think I adapted really well to the Spanish work/living style and felt like I fit in pretty well after about 2 weeks of being there. Because my company was international, we communicated in English which meant that I wasn't able to practice my Spanish as much as I had hoped. The thing about the program that I didn't enjoy was the living situation. Because it was individual dorms where we weren't allowed guests and freedom it felt very isolating and made me feel depressed.

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
