I had done a lot of travelling to Australia and as always keen to share my experiences with anybody who would listen! I loved the country and it was an amazing place, and I soon found a perfect outlet for me to discuss it! I stumbled across a website where people like me would share stories from their Australian adventures and it could count as a journalism internship. This was quite funny as I had actually found myself recently wanting to do a journalism career, so it was pretty much the perfect way for me to start out on this!

I would get the information I needed and soon I was writing away. I wasn't unfortunately getting paid for the articles but the experience it would give me would really come in handy later on in my life! As I mentioned, I had been to Australia many times before so I had no troubles writing about all the places I had been to and all the experience I had. I would write about each of the cities I had been to, the best tips I would have for travel and even which restaurants to eat at and which ones to avoid. I would lose countless hours writing all different articles and I would always be having a blast when I was doing them! I think I wrote over 100 articles, that's how dedicated I became!

Many of you reading this probably think it's silly to work for these articles without getting paid but I can assure you it really isn't. Go out there and do jobs like this and get internships online as you will find it can help you so much when it comes to applying for other jobs down the track. I had many of my employers look at the experience I received by doing the internship extremely favourably, and it probably helped me land a few of my many jobs! Give it a go, and experience the amazing world of journalism!

Being a media student it was always important to me to try out new things and really get a chance to do many different areas of media. I really enjoyed photography so when I found out about the opportunity for an online internship doing photography, I could hardly let that opportunity slip! Soon I found myself constantly having my camera with me as I travelled the world and taking as many photos of many different things as I possibly could, it was great fun! The fact that I got paid for my photos and stories of experience was also a bonus!

I would be around the world a lot as my parents travelled so I had to do a lot of my school work online which was pretty simple. The best part then about doing an online internship was that I was essentially doing exactly the same thing but for stuff that I actually received money for! This was really a massive boost for my future media career and it was great then also to see my photos actually published online for the world to see. And it really was the world who saw them too, as I would get so many positive feedbacks from people in all different corners of the world. I had somebody from Finland comment on a photo I took in Lebanon, so it was an amazing boost to my confidence!

Writing about the experiences was also great, and I was able to use some of my articles as school pieces which got me good grades at the same time! It really worked out in so many ways! I was getting an education, getting paid for a job online as well as getting to see the world and getting large amounts of experience for all my effort! I would easily recommend this to anybody out there who has the opportunity to do so and you should definitely do an online internship if you can as well!
