1 - Why did you decide to do your internship in Australia?

Since I was 10 years old I wanted to come to Australia. Therefore, having the chance to be here for an internship was turning my biggest dream true.

2 - What made this experience unique and special?

This has been a wonderful experience because I've met so many amazing people from different backgrounds with different stories. Australia is truly a beautiful country with heaps of things to do around, amazing beaches, animals and experiences. My time here has been full of nice surprises.

3 - How has this experience impacted your future?

This has definitely impacted my future in the most positive way you could ever imagine. Living in a different country far from home can seem scary, but is one of the things that will stay with you forever. I have learned so much about parts of science I did not know before. Thus, I can assure my career has gotten a 100% boost with this internship and all the things I have learned here from both, my work and the people around me.

4 - What was the highlight of your experience?

The highlight of my experience is that I have made some amazing friends who I travel around during the weekends and we are always up to some new adventure or trip around Brissie. I am also an Open Water Diver by now.

5 - What advice you would offer someone considering interning abroad in Australia?

You should do it. Put all your courage in your luggage and come to Australia not only to learn and grow but also to evolve. It will be the best thing you will ever do.

6 - How do you feel Australian internships supported you throughout your internship program?

I have felt Australian internships support 100% of the time. Please now that paperwork takes time and getting your placement takes some months, but once you get it everything starts to change and the team in Australian Internships is ALWAYS there for you!
