"Studying International Business opens doors to countless opportunities, but nothing compares to the hands-on experience of working abroad. My internship in Events & Marketing in Perth, Australia was more than just a professional milestone—it was definitely an adventure that blended personal- and professional growth with cultural immersion. Stepping out of my comfort zone, I discovered not only the fast-paced world of events but also the relaxed lifestyle of Australia itself."

Stepping stone

"At just 19 years, moving to the other side of the world was a whole experience in itself. One of the best aspects of the International Business programme is the encouragement from coaches to follow your dreams and explore new horizons. With the world as your oyster, I chose Perth Australia, and it became a decision that is still shaping my future."

"Having done my internship in Events & Marketing led to me working at various big conference and gala dinners for important West Australian clients. It showed me the ropes of events and project management while helping me discover my passions in the corporate world. The opportunity to work in an environment abroad is not just an achievement – it’s a stepping stone that sets you apart in your career."

Out of my comfort zone 

"Living in Australia also allowed me to fully immerse myself in the local culture. Learn the local slang was one of my favourite experiences – I reckon I aced it by the end of it! But beyond the professional and cultural aspects, this abroad experience helped me with my personal development. Those months pushed me out of my comfort zone and has helped me grow in ways I never expected."

"After 6 months my journey did not end. The opportunity arose for me to stay another 6 months to work at an amazing speciality coffee company. This only because I connected with the manager during my internship period. It opened doors I had never expected to be opened, and hopefully soon to be continued."

"See ya next time!"
