'Working as an intern for C3 has proven to be one of the most rewarding experiences I've had. The city, the climate, the staff, and the local people I interacted with helped in making the stay even more enjoyable. These past three months have been an intense hard working session of local village awareness raising programs, socio-economic surveys conducted throughout the island, staff training, and planning for future events. The hard work was rewarded with time to relax and learn more about the local culture, do some traveling up to the mountains close by, or enjoy some time off snorkeling among the coral reefs which surround the island. So much has happened in three months, and unfortunately time flew by, but none the less the C3 experience has proven to be the best internship program a marine biologist like me could have participated, as it gave me loads of insight of the issues that third world countries have to deal with on a daily basis.'
