Story My internship in Saint Petersburg, Russia was a life changing experience for me. I taught students in different schools as a part of the IT Literacy project powered by Microsoft. I got a chance to interact with students and professionals from over 6 to 7 different countries. The whole experience made me explore not just other cultures but myself. I now see the whole world from a different perspective. I have friends in more than 7 countries and will forever be indebted to AIESEC IIT Kharagpur for providing me with such an experience.
Microsoft’s IT Literacy Project has been a very influential part of my life. Not only did I make some amazing friends for life through this project, I also experienced wanderlust at its best. During my two months in Russia, I realized how fascinating it is to explore a new city with people from all over the world despite all our difference and realize that all this while, I had an indifferent outlook towards a lot of experiences that life had to offer. The biggest take-back I had from the entire experience is a realization that a meaningful life begins only at the end of your comfort zone.
