First week of interning! I am currently interning at a company called Vinolytics, which is a company that hosts wine tasting events connected to an app allowing the consumers to rate the wines providing them with a “wine persona” and providing the actual wineries with consumer preferences! I have been enjoying the work and the people so far. Other than work, this week I celebrated two of my friends’ birthdays! We did dinner at the Opera Bar one night and Lee’s Dumplings another night! I also went to my first ever Symphony! The Sydney Opera House had a performance of Beethoven’s Third Symphony and I was able to see it! It was absolutely beautiful, there was so much musical talent in that room I was truly stunned. I spent the rest of my time just walking around and enjoying Sydney. I went to WildLife zoo and saw some adorable animals. I took a walk through the Barangaroo Reserve and made my way to Observatory Park. I ended my time with a trip to the Art Gallery of NSW and a nice stroll through the Royal Botanical Gardens! (Submitted on March 24, 2024)
