hoping for this great opportunity!
when I saw the post on Facebook, my heart and soul lit up as this internship involves writing and traveling which I am very passionate about 🙂 , such great timing as I am a senior in college now, studying BS in Tourism Management. It’s for sure I won’t let this opportunity pass by, gonna take this chance and whatever happens, I am already happy that there is an incredible opportunity like this for creators and storytellers to share their art in different mediums that help travelers globally and boost the tourism industry.
