Mission Intern

May - July 2019 • Madrid, Madrid

What I liked

Loved our contacts in Madrid. The Williams family was an absolute joy to work with. Also, each intern lived with a host family, and I grew to love my host family very much, and miss them often!

What I wish was different

I wish this trip hadn’t been closed. My school is unwilling to work with our contact in Madrid next year, so I won’t be able to return. I would have loved to work with the team in Spain again.

Advice

This trip is what you make it. My Spanish progressed SO much here; however, some students’ levels changed only slightly. Some students did not adapt themselves to fit the trip, and struggled to assimilate. So I would say, be ready to say “yes” to anything!
