Mack's Internship Experience in Buenos Aires

Hey, my name is Mac. I did four months abroad with Mente Argentina. It was a great time. When you get there, you get a SUBE card, a SIM card, and cash, so you're ready to go. You also have a place to stay that they set up. They connect you with whatever internship you'd like. I got an internship with an event planning company, so I got to plan events for international students, learn how to bring people together, do some social media stuff, and I met people from all around the world and made some lasting connections. About three months in, I asked if I could do a little something more, because I wanted to do something else, and they connected me with an orphanage. I got to volunteer at an orphanage about three days a week. It was a super awesome experience. I got to work with kids, which I really enjoy doing, and it was a super eye-opening and interesting experience. They also have weekly events where they pay for your dinner and they pay for what you want to do. You go out and have a good time, and multiple times through the week they have partnerships with places all around Argentina, so you can go to an event every single night if you'd like. Through Mente you'll meet a ton of people. You'll have a great time.
