Melrick’s feedback:
Already four months in Africa and I can’t complain. Over the past four months I have been getting to know myself and taking as much responsibility as possible. Thinking back a year to the day, I never thought I’d find myself in Johannesburg. In 1 month, it will be my 20th birthday and it is the first time in my 20-year career that I have left the family nest, so far, so long. Other major projects are to come, but this one remains a favorite. In just 4 months, I had time to improve my English, to better manage my time, my money,[…], I am enriched by the culture, the sun, the flavours and the colours of South Africa. My internship is coming to an end soon and I will have to leave Africa. But Africa will never leave me.”
