United Nations intern can't afford rent so he's sleeping in a tent
Switzerland ranks among the richest countries in the world by any measure, and so it’s understandable why David Hyde, the 22-year-old New Zealander working at the United Nations in Geneva, might have to resort to living in a tent while serving out his six month unpaid internship.
Speaking to the Tribune de Genève, Hyde recounted a recent night where a storm poured in while he slept in his tent overlooking Lake Geneva near the UN Beach Club; the next morning, he put on his uniform and headed to work.
