Please note that I am no longer the ambassador for Internations Surabaya.
While my tenure with Internations Surabaya was a good experience, it was somewhat trying. I leave with good memories, new friendships and a great deal of positive experience. I no longer have any involvement in organizing Internations’ events. I wish them luck.
We currently organize events, gathering and outbound through Bridges Surabaya. Join Us.
