3. Doing an internship in another country means that you’ll fully integrate into the local, cultural and social life, you’ll be immersed in the target destination, therefore you’ll get to visit places and discover things and not just as a mere tourist.

4. You’ll also be immersed in the Arabic language. Most surely, you’ll be able to speak in a common language with the company’s/school staff, but you’ll also get to hear Arabic on a daily basis and speak in Arabic with your Arab friends, in your free time and during the weekends!
