For a hands-on internship abroad experience in a small city, look no further than San José. The Costa Rican capital is a laid-back gateway to Latin culture, one of the safest locations in Central America and a city currently undergoing significant economic growth. San José offers internship placements in career fields like marketing, tourism, architecture, and graphic design, and opportunities in several other fields are available too. When you're not developing new skills at your internship, enjoy Costa Rica's breath-taking beaches, rainforests, mountains, and volcanoes. Hang out in Barrio Amón, where colorful, colonial mansions have been converted to contemporary art galleries, hotels, restaurants, and offices. Shop at the Saturday farmers market in Barrio Aranjuez, where food and other locally produced goods are sold. Develop your Spanish language skills through socializing with colleagues and other students. Become an intern abroad in San José and get a taste of pure life in one of the world's most beautiful countries.
