Work

Water quality tests, soil adsorption tests and so on. I learnt to organize and operate tests here.

Experience

It is very lucky I found a house very close to the work place, only 30 mins by walk I could arrive. I don't live with my landlord but with 12 flatmates who come from different countries. They are so nice and I really enjoy the interesting culture clashes. Besides that, IAESTE Portugal office organized an amazing trip for us and we met other IAESTE participants at that time. After that, we often invite each other to travel around Lisbon, enjoy the castles, churches, natures and food. It is really worth to mention that 'Nata', the egg tart is really amazing here and everyone shouldn't miss it.

I really feel grateful I have the chance to practice here. My supervisor is so kind and she listened to me and try to find different projects for me so that I could have more experiences. I also work with a PhD student and she is so smart and well-balanced. I learn to organize and operate tests by following her. Although 3 months are very short, I still feel I learnt a lot, not only knowledge but also test skills. I feel more confident now and I am sure I could hold my study after I back to China.
