Interning abroad is very different from travelling abroad. You’re there for 30 days or more. You aren’t travelling with your family. You’re not staying at a hotel and you have to look after yourself. Interning abroad isn’t just about an amazing experience and a good addition to your CV. It’s about learning how to be on your own. Like a trial of how to be an adult. Only here you can’t cancel your subscription and opt-out (we wish!). Here is a checklist while travelling abroad. What you should carry with you while interning abroad!
