My name is Patricia G\u00f3mez and I’m from Mexico. \u00a0 \u00a0I am halfway of my internship in Thailand and it has been much more than I ever imagined. Since I arrived in Bangkok the city was awe-inspiring. The city never sleeps it\u2019s always moving, doing something and never resting.<\/b><\/p>\n

The other side of the World<\/span><\/h3>\n

My Team<\/span><\/h4>\n

I\u2019m a current intern in the restaurant \u201cUno M\u00e1s\u201d by Centara Grand at Central World, Bangkok. You can\u2019t imagine how many things I\u2019m learning day by day. I see myself growing in a professional and personal way<\/p>\n

There are tons of reasons I can mention you why I love my internship, but I think the most important one is my team, since my first day of job they had made my days awesome, full of learning, happiness, teamwork and always making me laugh. The work environment is incredible and being part of such amazing team keeps me motivated every day.<\/p>\n

Team Internship Thailand<\/p>\n

\u00a0The other side of the world! \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

I start to explore Bangkok and I discovered the magnitude of the city with the temples and surroundings. They are the perfect reflection of \u201cme being on the other side of the world\u201d. Maybe the hardest part on this side of the world is to adapt to a completely different culture. My Thai is becoming better and I\u2019m proud of it, now I can ask for a cab and even haggle better prices on the markets. I remember me being in Mexico and expecting a completely different thing of what I\u2019m living now, I\u2019m loving it and enjoying every single minute of it. First I had no idea why I chose Bangkok for my internship and although I still don\u2019t know but I am grateful for my decision.<\/p>\n

This is an amazing cultural experience!<\/p>\n
