Most Sri Lankan students think internships abroad are only for the rich. But what if I told you you could earn more than your local salary while living abroad, with accommodation and food included?

Going abroad for an internship doesn’t have to drain your savings. Many AIESEC programs in India, Vietnam, Egypt, and Tunisia provide affordable accommodation and meals, meaning your biggest expenses are covered. Plus, you’ll receive a competitive stipend based on the project and country.

Imagine this: you’re learning new skills, building your CV, networking globally, and actually earning while doing it. That’s right – it’s not just an expense, it’s an investment in your career and personal growth.

You don’t need months of planning or large amounts of money. Programs range from 6-12 weeks, 3-6 months, and even 6-18 months, so you can pick a timeline that works for you. Even a short 6-week internship abroad can teach more than months in a classroom and give you experience that sets your CV apart.

Think of it like this: your peers are doing local internships that barely pay and barely teach, while you’re building global connections, leadership skills, and professional confidence. Plus, the stories and experiences you bring home will last a lifetime.

Plan early, choose your country wisely, and take advantage of the support AIESEC provides.
