Hi, it is Alaz who is a citizen of the world trying to exist on the road with my mission and vision beyond my resume and I am here to take you on a long adventure around the world with my Human Resources Assistant Internship. I was in the 4th semester of my bachelor’s of psychology at Çağ University in Turkey and have an incredible interest in organisational psychology. Throughout my education, I had done internships in various fields (business and organisation, clinic, courthouse etc.) and took part in the board of management who are working on a national and international level. The story began in May of 2019 when…

On Thursday the 21st of June my adventure began: An eight-week long research internship in Belfast! For the first weekend my mum accompanied me and so we flew to Dublin together. From there we took the train up to Belfast, which is actually a very relaxed way of reaching Belfast as the train trip only takes two hours and for students it costs just 15 pounds. Plus, you get to have a look at Ireland’s beautiful landscape while traveling. When I arrived, Belfast presented itself in the best light with around 23°C, blue sky and the sun shone all day. I couldn’t help but liking this beautiful city instantly. The…

What a mess! Still, when asked if everything was clear, I sat straight, nodded, smiled (completely unnecessary behaviour as it was a mere phone conversation without video but oh well) and responded “yes, more or less”. Again, I thought, what a mess!!!…

How did I end up going to Prague? I’d done my Erasmus on spring 2017 and came back with a slight post-erasmus depression. I was graving for more adventures and not ready to stop exploring the world. EFPSA’s internship offer came to my way and without thinking much more, I decided to apply, because why not? I wouldn’t lose a thing. Things got serious when I started to create my CV and application form and I got excited about the thought to have a possibility for a short internship abroad. Prague and Person Center had good websites to give information what to expect form their center. Exploring Prague as a…

My name is Aidyl Sanchez. Currently, I am a second year Undergraduate Psychology Student who is studying in Ireland. Let me start by saying how well structured the European Federation of Psychology Student’s Association (EFPSA) is and how they have given students, like myself the opportunity of a lifetime through their “Study and Travel Abroad” service. How I found myself working with the Willingness team in the Willingness Clinic all started form just a click of a button. Although the process was not as simple as pressing a button online and applying, I went through a number of stages to get to where I was, and I am more than…
