Last day of credit internship

Lunch time with Allyson (PRO) and the interns present on that day
After a few months of interning at the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan Embassy in Tokyo, I have successfully completed my credit internship! I can't believe time just flew by so fast. It feels like yesterday that I started my internship at the embassy feeling a little nervous and unsure of what is to come and BAM(!), It's the almost end of my spring semester at university and the end of my credit internship at the embassy.

If it wasn't for this internship, I wouldn't have got to meet so many talented new people!  I am very thankful for all the opportunities given to me at the embassy. I've learnt so much about Afghanistan and its culture, it has indeed  changed my perceptions about Afghanistan. I really wish the best for Afghanistan and would love to visit there one day and have more Afghanistan's local food! The ones I had during my time interning at the embassy were wicked delicious!

Even though my credit internship with the embassy has ended, I've decided to continue my internship and continuing to volunteer at the embassy until.. well, for as long as I am able to without sacrificing my other responsibilities. 

With Love,
Charis
