My Internship search
When I started my search, I focused on one country: Malaysia. I decided to send all my applications to Malaysia in different cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, George Town, Melacca, Petaling Jaya, etc. I sent an application to more than 200 companies. First, I focused on large French (or international) companies, but with no positive responses. After that, I sent it to about 80 hotels because I wanted to have free accommodation or free food for example. I received positive responses but these people did not want to deal with formalities (like visas). So, I searched on Google the 10 most promising companies in Malaysia and decided to apply to them all. I received 3 positive responses and finally chose PurelyB. My advice would be that if you really want to go to one particular country, focus on it. Finding an internship in a big company is often difficult, so do not hesitate to send your application to a start-up or SME because you will receive more responses. Doing your internship in a start-up instead of a big company is no bad thing. You may even have more tasks and consideration and you will enjoy your internship.

MY ADVICE-TIPS
Advice: try and find help locally because I booked mine with Airbnb and it was very expensive compared to other methods. Choose a place near your company or public transport because taking a taxi every day is expensive. Taking a sim card in the country is cheaper than taking a contract in France for foreign countries.
MY MONTHLY BUDGET :
Housing : €500 € Internet & telephone: Food : €5/meal Transportation: Only taxi around €4 / fare€ Leisure: it depend
