Yesterday morning, an important milestone was marked in my life: it was the first time I worked it 9-5 (or 9-12:30, in my case) at my first internship!!!!…Now what exactly do I do???…Let me explain…
For the time being (that is, until the end of April), I work at the Museo del Comercio (Museum of Commerce) in Salamanca…Considering the name, it’s not hard to guess what kind of museum it is…
…My place of occupation…
Now, my 2 main duties are very simple: 1) I have to follow around the guides and observe how they interact with/explain the exhibits to the various groups of people who visit the museum, and 2) Translate various parts of the website into English…Yesterday, I observed my coworkers (I sound so professional!!) work with two groups of schoolchildren…The first group was a bunch of 3-year-olds (preciosos–but a tad bit uncontrolable)…The second group was easier to handle, considering that they were a little older (5-year-olds)…
So yeah, that’s it…And, of course, here are some more photos!!!!…
…Miguel, mi jefe (The Bossman)….
…Three of my colleagues: (Can’t quite recall her name right now), Marga (short for Margarita), and Alicia…
…The 3-year-olds…
…Some objects from the exhibits (the last one is some sort of object from the time of Hadrian–epic win [I’m an Ancient Rome nerd])…
And now for a shameless plug (If you’re ever in Salamanca, hit us up, :-)):
i see alot of old radio & turn table so what do the museo deal with? and find out what that object is from Hadrian?(because you should know about the works on display…)
…Whichever, Rosa–I’m NEW here…Oh, and like I said, the museum deals with the history of commerce…Obviously, radio has something to do with that because of jingles and commercials, and things…
Cool that you’re doing your internship in Salamanca! I’m in the same situation 😉
…Oh, really–Where, :-)???…
In Tia Tula 😉
…What/where is that???…What do you do???…And I’m guessing you’re studying abroad too, like me, :-)…
