Ahmed Karam in Ankara, Turkey

I would like to say that I am so glad because I have managed to achieve one of my goals which was to travel to turkey.

I had a great time with AIESEC Ankara and I had the chance to see different cultures and interact with different people.

I learned about their language and culture and we taught them ours.

My project was called the “International Taxi drivers”, in which we worked with other 9 interns from Egypt, China, Indonesia, Poland, Nigeria, and Bahrain

I learned a lot of things, of which is the most important was how to organize your project and that a person must be proactive and learn from previous mistakes

And I learned that if your project is related to a big organization like AIESEC, you must put different plans in mind, in case anything went wrong in the future.

Because problems happen suddenly, and sometimes you need to handle them as fast as possible to avoid any losses.

In my case, there was a problem that the drivers were not flexible with learning a new language and solving such a problem needed a lot of thinking and planning and was very challenging. And I am sure if we had enough time, we could have managed to come up with a great strategy and help the manager avoid such problems on the longterm.

I cannot wait to go through this experience again and go on an internship somewhere else with AIESEC. I learned and gained a lot of experience

Finally, I want to thank both AIESEC Cairo University and AIESEC Ankara and I am looking forward to continuing my AIESEC experience
