June - July 2019 • Santo Domingo, Santo Domingo Province
What I liked
I learned so much about the concept of microfinance. Developing a society starts through a relationship and compassion and this is exactly what Esperanza International does.
What I wish was different
Could have stayed a little longer to experience more about the business model of the company.
Advice
One-in-a-kind internship experience, where I learned about microfinance and about another culture. Extremely applicable business and life skills that I will carry on to the rest of my life.
