3) Apply for an internship with Compassion International in Colorado Springs, CO.
Ever since I decided to become a Public Relations major two years ago, I dreamed about applying to Compassion International Internship program. It seems to be a great summer program, and I like Colorado Springs.

Of course, I would have to find a fabulous coffee shop to work in there to incorporate coffee into this adventure. I am not familiar with the area, so I am up for ideas! This idea excites me because it would take care of the summer and fulfill every aspect of what I want this adventure to be.
I would get to see the States as well as another country and get another internship all at the same time.
Thoughts?
That sounds like an awesome idea, Beth. I know Compassion is something you are really passionate about, and I think it would be a good fit for you!! :)
