CIEE Abroad Internship- Milan, Italy

I enjoyed my experience. The program directors were very helpful, and the internship was an amazing experience. Traveling on the weekends was very accessible. I would say it is very hot in Italy, so it is good to be aware when packing. Public transportation is very easy, but you have to get the hang of it first. You can save a lot of money on public transportation by purchasing a monthly ATM card, highly recommend. I enjoyed being a part of the program to meet others from many different places. We also had group trips or events we could attend to get to know each other. When working in my internship, my supervisor was very understanding and helpful. We had several classes throughout the week with the CIEE directors. I didn't find all of them helpful, and they were sometimes long. Orientation was insightful, but it was directly after my 12-hour commute to Europe, so I was very tired and felt they couldve spaced out the process.
