Excellent program 10/10!

My time in Hong Kong with Absolute Internship was the most amazing experience I’ve ever had. Both interning everyday and just living in this incredible city and experiencing so many different cultures by meeting all the other students everyday was so exciting. My best friend had participated in the London Program the year before me, and she had only great things to say about it, so I decided to fly somewhere closer (I’m an Aussie so I thought London was a bit far away) so I chose Hong Kong for two months.

From the day I arrived at Hong Kong International Airport, checked in at the accommodation, I felt completely comfortable. Our program staff was wonderful and made sure to help us with everything from showing us how to setup the 3G/4G on our mobile phones to showing us where to do our groceries. Very important when you just arrived!

My first day at my internship was very stressful understandably, but as soon as I arrived my company was very friendly and invited me for a lunch the first day! The food in Hong Kong is amazing. You can have delicious meals from $3. There was an amazing dim sum restaurant where we ate almost every week nearby where we lived.

Traveling from Australia to such a different country far away such as Hong Kong can be frightening, but living in the city together with around 80 other students in the same age, doing the same thing makes the experience so much more worthwhile and fun. This was definitely the best summer I’ve ever had and I would recommend to anyone from Australia or anywhere in the world that loves to travel to intern in Hong Kong!
