We’ve been job shadowing for several days in Braga. This allowed us to see various classes and gain insight into the operational dynamics of the Portuguese education framework. Our visit also included trips to the cities of Braga and Porto. Our favorite city was Porto due to its culture and architecture. Exploring this city with our guide was the best way to make our experience unforgettable. We recommend Mobility Friends for their exceptional assistance with logistics, and overall support throughout our journey. Their expertise ensured an enjoyable experience, making our trip memorable and perfect for our project.

Our internship in Child Care was very enlightening. We were able to gain an insight into educational work in Portugal. We were given a very warm welcome and felt that our presence was valued. Our trip to the Barcelos market very appealing, we were able to explore it independently and many of the cultural characteristics there. We would recommend Mobility Friends as it is a welcoming place and very organized. There is always a contact person available. At the reception, we could always get an answer for our questions.

Excellent organization of he training course, interesting classes enabling the exchange of different perspectives.
Good organization of free time so we also would learn about culture, tradition, local food and customs. The organizers were in constant contact with the group and provided assistance. It´s a great adventure, an opportunity to exchange experiences, get to know the culture and traditions of the country.
