Amber's experience with Mente Argentina

Amber, who is Vietnamese and English and currently lives in Germany, had just finished a journalism course and needed tangible work experience before starting work in Germany. In Buenos Aires she was placed with two companies, both of which she found valuable: one involved radio work, talking and interacting with people and writing a newsletter, and the other was office-based, working on websites, a little coding and plenty of content writing. She expected something like university, just classes and tasks, but instead found herself fully immersed in Argentine culture. Everyone was welcoming and keen to share their understanding of Argentina, and in just one month she feels she gained a comprehensive Argentine experience through the people she met. She calls it a fantastic opportunity and says to go with Mente Argentina.

In Amber's own words

My name is Amber. I am Vietnamese and English, and I live in Germany at the moment. I recently completed a course in journalism, and what I basically needed was tangible work experience before I could go to work in Germany. While I was here, I was placed with two companies, and both were really valuable in the long run. In one I was doing more oral work, like radio, talking and interacting with people, and then writing a newsletter. In the other placement I was in more of an office environment, working with websites, a little bit of coding, and at the same time a lot of content writing. All in all, I had no idea it was going to be this good. I thought it was just going to be kind of like university, where you go to classes, get things done, and work things out, but it was a whole experience where you assimilated into Argentine culture entirely. Everybody is so welcoming. Everybody is so keen to share their bit, their understanding of Argentina, with you. Although I've only been here for one month, I feel like I experienced 20 years' worth of a comprehensive Argentine experience through all the different people I've met. It was a fantastic opportunity, and I would definitely say go with Mente Argentina.
