Gabriel Sub's Internship Experience in Buenos Aires

My name's Gabriel, and I've just completed the Mente internship program. It was a lovely opportunity for me. Mente made it very easy for me to get accommodated in the city. They were a great support system for an otherwise fairly insulated traveler. My experience with the internship was only positive. It was a good learning experience for me in terms of the human rights network here in Argentina. I got good experience working with grant research and trying to network with other NGOs to provide a better system for human rights here in Argentina and abroad. My Spanish improved noticeably. With all the programs that Mente had, it made it much easier. I went on an excursion with Mente to Tigre, which was a great suburb outside of the city. Beautiful. I hope to be back very soon. Mente did a great job helping me get comfortable here in Argentina. My favorite thing about Buenos Aires is probably the structure of the city itself, the parks, the different neighborhoods. It's such a cosmopolitan city. There's so much to see. I spent most of my time lost and wandering around the streets, and I really couldn't have asked for a better place to be lost in. It's a wonderful city.
