Startup Internship Abroad - Masambeni South Africa

South Africa is beautiful so is Cape Town. I had the opportunity to be the first internship for a new connection. I was taking a risk but it was more than worth it. I got to see so much of Cape Town and people while working in event planning. The house and my house mates were welcoming and nice. A lot of fun with a lot of work but in the end I learned so much.

Elisha and Razi at Masembeni ensured that my group had the best cultural introduction, from eating in authentic places with entertainment, to shopping , group activities and much more. They ate much more than chaperones they are now lifelong friends. The house we stayed in was amazing. We had such a short time here yet Elisha was able to find a placement that showed us social work perspective and also gave direct work opportunities with young people, this was fantastic. I would recommend to my educator family and friends considering any such placements in the future.

Had an amazing time on placement and out of placement. Great experience and a humbling experience too. Came as a social work student and got the experience to see how social work works in Cape Town. Would definitely recommend.
