By (University of Hawaii - Manoa) - abroad from 02/06/2017 to 04/28/2017 with

The Intern Group: London Internship Placement Program

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
I have to triple check everything and watch my own back. But it's also relieving that InternGroup has my back with anything. Even if it's just moral support or someone to talk to.

The Avid Adventurer
The wardrobe you packed was better suited for a semester of camping than club hopping. Outdoorsy, you might forgo a crazy night out for an early all-day adventure. You'd rather take in the rich culture of an old town than the metropolis of a modern city, but for you getting off the grid is ideal.
