  Bahrain My primary role was to write and follow up on current local news. At times, I was asked to follow up and translate western publications tackling Bahrain news. On some occasions, I was sent to cover local events from the field. Through the duration of my internship, I published many articles and conducted many interviews including with a Presidential Candidate in Mali's 2013 elections.
