My experience in Cape Town has changed me in so many ways. First of all, the act of coming to a brand new place by myself was one of the most terrifying and rewarding things I have ever done. I met people who changed my life and facilitated so much of my growth. I did things I never imagined I would have had the courage to do… shark cage diving, bungee jumping, driving on the left side of the road… My internship was a great experience as well. Overall, I have had a very rewarding and life-changing experience. Cape Town, the experiences I have had here, and the people I have met will always have a special place in my heart!!
