Short bio

My name is Beau and I am 21 years old. I study sports science at The Hague University of Applied Sciences. For my internship period in the 2nd year I was allowed to do an internship abroad.

How satisfied were you with the support before departure?

The guidance was very good. At first I was looking for which internship was ideal for me. The orientation interview with Ruben made sure that I knew exactly what I wanted to do. After this we always had good contact in the rest of the internship process.

My story

“At first I wondered what the people in the house would be like because I went alone, but I quickly found out that it was very cozy.”

When I heard that we could do an internship abroad, this seemed like a great opportunity. At first I wondered what the people in the house would be like because I was going alone, but I quickly found out that it was very cozy.

In addition, the projects we carried out were nice to do. They varied from very sweet pre-school children to playing football with seniors. This variety ensured that you experienced something different every day.

In our free time we did all kinds of things on the island. I liked everything we did, but the petit piton and quad biking were my favorite.

Personally, I would definitely recommend doing this internship if you have the opportunity.

What advice would you give to those who come after you?

Make sure you apply plenty of sunscreen and drink enough water. I’ve seen quite a few people make the mistake of doing this.
