Week 6 – Becoming my own leader.

It is hard to believe I am coming up on the last full week of my two months in Stockholm! We just finished our last weekend trip, this time to Helsinki, and for the rest of my time here I am going to try to soak up the city as best as I can. As…

Farewell to Dublin

Since it was my last week in Ireland, I wanted to make the most out of the experience by doing some of the last things on my list. We were able to make one final day trip out to Cork which was a two hour train ride from Dublin. While we were there, we made…

Bittersweet GoodBye, Berlin!

Well, we did it! After 8 and half weeks in a new country, memories made for a lifetime, and a bumpy flight home, I made it home and completed my Business Development internship with Surflay Nanotec GmbH! Since I’ve been home, it’s been really nice to relax and reflect on what an amazing oppurtunity this…

Sailing home soon

On the home stretch in Sweden with less than a week left! I’m sad to go, but It will absolutely be nice to head home. This past week I got to go to the Vasa museum, where the previously sunken ship the Vasa is kept. The ship was restored in the 1920’s after sinking in…

Hel-sinking in work

This week was the long-await Helsinki trip! After a (long) boat ride, we got to spend a day wandering around Helsinki and seeing the sights! Although it was (incredibly) expensive there, I had an amazing time looking around, shopping, and generally being a tourist. I have never really considered myself much of a “leader”, but…

Vax-holding on

The week of July 6th was a fun one! Me and my roommate got to visit the Paradox Museum and got some super cool pictures to share: The internship company organized a trip to Vaxholm as well – a beautiful little island outside of Stockholm with gorgeous sommarstugar, or Swedish vacation homes! As for my…

So, how’d I do?

My last week at my internship passed in a blur. I got to hang out with my coworkers a fair amount in and out of the workplace. I even got to go to an anime convention with one of them, which was a lot of fun! We were just intending to check it out a…

So Long, Dublin

Euro Summer is so joever, and I am both sad and happy about it. On the one hand, I have been itching to get home. At the same time, I am also nursing a heartache over the completion of a once-in-a-lifetime experience. My final week in Dublin consisted of a lot of jazz and a…

Goodbye Berlin!

Now that my internship and time in Berlin has come to an end, I am reflecting on the entirety of this experience. I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to develop my skills in venture capital and work in an extremely interesting environment. I’m also grateful to have had the opportunity to immerse myself in…
