Architecture Internships in Barcelona

Growing up, I received National Geographic kids's magazines monthly via subscription. I vividly remember keeping a collection of them in my closet and spending my days reading about the various locations around the world and the animals that make up these ecosystems. From the luscious prairies of Africa to the jungles of South America, and even Antarctica; the places of the world began to feel wider than the community I was accustomed to. These early memories catalyzed my passion for international travel and sparked my desire to not only explore my city, but the world at large. Coming from Los Angeles, I got to meet individuals from all over the world, hear their stories and perspectives, and increase my desire to see the world. It created a fantasy for me in getting to see the world, and as I grew up, my global perspective began to shift with the times. When the opportunity offered itself to study Intern in Barcelona, I knew I had to jump onto the opportunity, as it would be a culmination of the love story that has been developing over the last decade for me and the world. I knew I owed it to both my younger self, but also my future self to step out of my comfort zone and venture to Espana. For that, I am eternally grateful for the aid and guidance Barcelona SAE provided during my time there. Both the coursework to the nuggets of information and activities that immersed myself and others in the Barcelona way of life. I will never forget my time in Barcelona, and that is due to Barcelona SAE.

I completed a social media martketing internship for a Spanish language academy during my intern program with CIS Abroad. I am really satisfied with my internship placement, as CIS Abroad made sure to match me with an opportunity closest to my interests and experience. Not only did I gain on-hand experience through my internship, but I also strengthened my cultural intelligence. I immersed myself and learned about a different work culture, practiced & strengthened my Spanish, and adapted to use different communication styles. On top of that, CIS Abroad supported me and was there if I had any questions, concerns, etc. I would highly recommend completing an internship abroad with CIS!
