My name is Veronica Guerra. I am from Italy, and this is my final semester as an Economics student at Nova SBE. Last semester, I had the opportunity to embark on an adventure with NOVAFRICA as a research assistant in Mozambique for the project “Experimental Evidence on Occupational Choices of Microentrepreneurs in Mozambique”. When my professor proposed me this internship, I felt both excited and apprehensive. It was something I had not planned, and six months seemed like a very long time.
