I liked that we had preplanned excursions included which made the trip much more worth while. The company I was out with was amazing and I really enjoyed my time with them

-Overall being a part of the AIFS Sydney, Australia internship program has been an amazing experience! AIFS did a great job at planning and preparing incoming interns for the program, and arranging fun activities for everyone to participate in. Sydney was a very beautiful city and I had a lot of fun exploring the area and meeting new people. With the help of this program I also learned a lot of valuable lessons about my career path and what my future career may look like

I had a really positive and good experience here in Florence through AIFS. They put me in a really good living accommodation that I was happy with and I found the staff to be very helpful and easy to talk and communicate with. The placement they put me in for my internship was fantastic and I had a wonderful experience working and got to build really good relationships with the people I worked with. I also got to meet and make friends with many people and had a great social life and social aspect to this trip. I would recommend AIFS because it's provided me with a great experience and memories that I will never forget.

Interning full time was a lot of work and it can be difficult to want to go to work every day when there is exploring to be done. However, getting the chance to work full-time was such a rewarding experience and my boss was really accommodating about letting me take Fridays off to travel, and working with locals also means that you get the best recommendations! AIFS was always available for support when necessary, and it was comforting for myself and my parents to know that there was somebody in my program location for help if necessary. I wouldn't trade this experience for anything and I got to meet some amazing friends (in addition to working in my industry)!!

Being able to come to Florence has taught me so much! About myself, my social life, and my professional life!! I met so many amazing people while here for the last 2 months, and created such awesome memories that will last a lifetime! Coming across the world by myself was the scariest thing I had ever done, but being able to connect with other students my age that were doing the same thing, really gave me peace at mind and made me feel better!

Sydney has a lot to offer, both socially and professionally. This combination provides a good experience for interns looking to travel to a new city. My placement provided me a plethora of new knowledge and experiences that I am most definitely going to carry with me in my career. Overall I think Sydney great destination and would recommend everyone to visit at least once.

This experience has been an incredible adventure! I feel like I am leaving more confident in my career and inspired in my personal life. AIFS did a wonderful job preparing me, and Andrea was a phenomenal program director once in Australia. Sydney itself was the best location choice for me. Since it was my first time abroad on my own, I wanted something that had a similar culture to home in the states. I never felt alienated here, but since it's so close to Asia, I got to experience plenty of cultural fusion which broadened my world view. If you're on the fence about studying or interning abroad in Sydney, I can say from experience that it did not disappoint.

I really enjoyed the program!! Our onsite coordinator helped coordinate fun events for our intern group! Sydney is a great place to visit and it’s been a good experience overall :)
