It\u2019s hard to believe there\u2019s only 1 month left of my internship at the Finnish Cultural Institute for the Benelux! Let\u2019s take a look back at the past 10 months and highlight the top 10+ moments of my stay at the institute.<\/p>\n

January<\/h2>\n

Ah January, where it all began! The first few days of an internship at the Institute are reserved for \u201cinductions\u201d, where interns are introduced to the different departments of the institute. It\u2019s a lot of info to take in but the team is endlessly patient and there\u2019s plenty of time to learn.<\/p>\n

Highlight: On my very first day I got to make my TikTok debut!<\/a><\/p>\n

February<\/h2>\n

In February, I went on my first work excursion as the team traveled to Antwerp to see Saara Turunen\u2019s Grapes of Reason<\/a>. As I stepped off the train, I instantly twisted my ankle. Luckily, Belgian beer, good company, and the fantastic theater experience quickly numbed the pain.<\/p>\n

I was also diving into and organizing the Institute’s photo archives from the past 30 years. There are still many mysteries in the mix, but I like to think I\u2019ve shed some light on the activities and characters of the Institute\u2019s past.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

March<\/h2>\n

March is when things began to get busy at the Institute. In the beginning of the month, we took part in organizing the International Women\u2019s Day Breakfast Discussion<\/a>. Hearing about issues of gender equality in performing arts from industry professionals was incredibly insightful and a unique experience for me.<\/p>\n

My greatest accomplishment of March was definitely being in this little TikTok number.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

April<\/h2>\n

In April, I had the privilege of organizing the Institute\u2019s 30th Anniversary Celebration Extravaganza! This was definitely an education, and it turns out I find figuring out logistics incredibly rewarding.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

May<\/h2>\n

May was absolutely dominated by Eurovision sensation K\u00e4\u00e4rij\u00e4. Cha Cha Cha swept across Europe and had everyone dancing from our Brussels office<\/a> to the Institute days in Oslo.<\/a><\/p>\n

I also went on holiday to France and got the chance to meet up with our then still-to-arrive intern Tega!<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

June<\/h2>\n

The highlight of June was the premiere of Texture of Connection<\/a> by Yohannes Henriksson in Helsinki (which I sadly did not attend). Luckily, I had Blob to keep me company<\/a> at the office.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

July<\/h2>\n

July was the summer holiday month at the office so I was mainly focused on finding my favorite ice cream flavors (peanut butter and raspberry sorbet).<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

August<\/h2>\n

In early August, we got to meet our newest intern Tega!<\/a> Things were slowly picking up again as the autumn semester of our Finnish courses<\/a> and the Together Again Festival<\/a> were fast approaching.<\/p>\n

September<\/h2>\n

In September, I was busy planning and organizing the screening of Eatnameamet – Our Silent Struggle.<\/a> As the practicalities and logistics were taken care of at this point, I mainly focused on the comms side of things: writing the press release, creating content for social media, commissioning a translation and so on. I was glad to see the film generating a lot of interest here in Brussels, as its topic remains ever relevant across the globe.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

October<\/h2>\n

The month is still unfolding, and now we\u2019re looking for the next me! I hope this post shows you the wealth of possibilities of this internship: you can really make it your own. Click here to learn more and apply<\/a>, but be quick! The application closes tomorrow 10.10. at 16:15 EEST. If you have any questions, you can contact our Head of Programme Malin: malin.bergstrom@finncult.be.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
