“It was a thrilling experience. I have learned a lot about myself and to adapt to the organisational structure in Vietnam. Sometimes it was hard, especially waking up at 8 am in the morning in the heat and also the different ways of thinking (Western vs. Vietnamese) clashed sometimes, but in the end I am glad to have contributed to such a good cause. Being able to live and work abroad is certainly a very educational experience I could advise everyone to participate in!”

“I learned a lot from living in another culture amongst people with different lifestyles. I think the world would be a better place if everyone had similar experiences with different cultures. It will help people see that the diversity among cultures is part of life’s exciting variety and beauty, not something to fear.”

“In general I really recommend the AIESEC internship experience to everyone! I think it is a great balance between an adventure and gaining professional experience in an interesting way. The internship at the startup allowed me to work on my entrepreneurial skills. I actually like it so much here that I am thinking about extending my internship or finding a permanent job in Taipei. Doing an internship abroad might become one of best adventures of your life!”
