Now that I am home, I am re-aligning my career to a more eco-conscious company and putting into practice much of the things I learned while on base.
Hey Christina, thanks for your review! I'm thrilled to hear you had such a positive experience with us and enjoyed your time on base as much as you did. All the best with navigating this new career chapter. We'd love to have you back on base sometime...

I made many very good friends
by: Victoria - GermanyProgram: Short-Term Community Development Internship in PeruOverall, I enjoyed the time in Peru. I made many very good friends and I will miss Karol and Luis.
