Dear Sir or Madam,


I am writing to you to express my interest and enthusiasm in having an internship within your organisation starting in summer 2007. I found out that your organisation perfectly matches my career aspirations and offers interesting working environment. At the same time I believe my qualifications and abilities could bring a lot of assets for your team.


My name is XXX and I come from YYY. I noticed your organisation this September when I was planning my holiday in Norway. I have explored your internet pages thoroughly and I was strongly attracted by the topics you are dealing with. Therefore I was immediately excited by the opportunity of internship for foreign students you offer.


Since 2004 I have been studying MA course in Regional Geography at the XXX University. Regional geography is very complex science. It investigates individual regions from all different aspects with the emphasis on mutual relationship between their socioeconomic and natural spheres. My course has involved lectures on the planning process, land use, sustainable tourism and regional development. During prior studies I have been working on several projects dealing with the EU Regional Policy and the Structural Funds. I also have an essential knowledge of the geographical information system (GIS).


I would like to apply for one-to-two month internship in summer months of 2007 at the YYY unit. I am confident that my knowledge would be beneficial especially when dealing with the departments of YYY and YYY. Apart from my theoretical qualifications I can offer enthusiasm and strong commitment to work. I learn quickly and after short training I am perfectly able to work independently, but at the same time, I am a useful team player. I am very reliable and flexible person, who can work hard.


During my holiday in Norway I had a chance to get in touch with local environment and people, and, I have to say, I really fell in love with the country. I had an opportunity to visit the Rondane National Park and see the beauty of the Scandinavian nature with my own eyes. The chance to actually take part in the management of this environment, and with this to put my experience and education into practice, would be priceless. Simultaneously I believe, my stay would be profitable for you as well, as I could enrich your team with my knowledge and international background and perspective.


Attached to this email for your review is my resume, containing additional information on my experience and skills.


Should you have any questions, please, feel free to contact me via email. Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to your reply.


Yours faithfully,

XXX
