“Hi my name is Claire and I lived in the shared apartment with other girls in Recoleta. I really liked Recoleta because I felt really safe, we were able to walk around. I probably said that my favorite thing about Mente was all the excursions they promote, many of my friends initially didn’t know what to do but Mente was helping so much with all the things on what to do during the week, like Bomba and the Tigre excursion or having an asado and a Polo Day. I really just love the energy of Buenos Aires. I am from Colorado so I have never lived in a big city. Buenos Aires has a thing happening at every hour of the day in the different barrios. I also got to go to Iguazu which was really fun to, one of the amazing things you can do. I only wish I could have changed my travel time, I really wanted to see the north and Patagonia and Mendoza. I loved Buenos Aires and I made so many friends and I am going to miss everybody. As far as my internship, I never worked for an NGO so I learned a lot and it was very insightful and I discovered their processes that I would never imagine they run, practicing Spanish with my coworkers was really fun. My only recommendation is to get to know more locals because it is easy to fall into the habit of hanging out with Mente friends that only speak English but some of my favorite experiences were meeting random people and getting a local perspective. I can’t believe that Im leaving, have fun!”Internship in Argentina - Mente Argentina Reviews by Claire
