Doing an internship in a foreign country is a unique opportunity and a perfect way to start your career. On the other hand, being afraid of all the things you might have to face is totally normal.
With just a few tips, you’ll feel safer to embark on this journey.
Do Your Research
Before you land in the country you’ll be living and working in, it’s always best to prepare yourself with some basic information you might need. To feel more comfortable once you get there, read a bit about the culture, daily life or professional behavior and rules.
Budget
Planning the budget in advance might help you avoid uncomfortable surprises along the way. This journey can become pretty expensive, so make sure to find out the prices and come up with a monthly budget.
Experience new culture
You’re traveling to this country to get some work experience, but this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t experience the culture as well.
Make friends
Findings some friends to hang out with from time to time can help you feel less lonely in a strange country. Take this opportunity to meet foreigners, talk with local people and who knows – you might meet some lifelong friends there.
