Australian Internships Review

Doing a travel and tourism internship in Australia with Nomads for a semester I got a 360º experience in the adventure tourism industry. I worked for both Nomads Network and all three Nomads properties in Melbourne and my tasks ranged from marketing to back-office and administrative tasks to on-the-floor hostel activities. What I loved about Nomads was its open and supportive culture, way to be create and innovate their business process, and well – truth be said it’s just a rad and fun company to work for! At the end of the day I loved it so much I stayed another semester to write my bachelor thesis as a graduation assignment for Nomads. Would do it again in a heart beat.
