Internship at<br />
Bali Pasadena,<br />
Indonesia<br />

Another beautiful sunset<br />
I<br />
heard stories after stories about<br />
Bali, its breathtaking sceneries and<br />
beaches, the richness of its culture<br />
and art, and its outstanding hospitality<br />
that gathered people from all over the<br />
world to this exotic island. Attracted by<br />
its global reputation, Bali has long been a<br />
tourism hotspot, pulling in 3 million tourists<br />
last year. Nevertheless, I am not satisfied<br />
with stories or how things have gone with<br />
others. I want to unfold and experience the<br />
land myself.<br />
The two months internship with<br />
Bali Pasadena was truly a life changing<br />
experience and was an eye opener for<br />
me. The privilege to work with one of the<br />
first local rattan furniture manufacturers<br />
in Bali was incredible. As an intern in<br />
the marketing and sales department,<br />
my main objective for internship was to<br />
upgrade the company’s website and<br />
social network. I was given a very warm<br />
welcome into the Pasadena family with<br />
my colleagues taking their time to teach<br />
and explain to me about the company and<br />
its products. My internship partner, Rifa<br />
Wahyuni and the supportive colleagues<br />
were truly huge blessings throughout<br />
the internship, beginning with learning<br />
about the products together to setting<br />
up Project Pasadena, where we built our<br />
own stage and took pictures for all the<br />
new furniture for the website and furniture<br />
collections catalog. I learned more than<br />
what I have expected, I had the chance<br />
to meet and assist buyers from various<br />
