Currently intern Equity research but I want FX Trading

Hello,

I am currently an intern at HSBC (Germany) in Equity Research. Now 1 month is over and I know it is no my destination. After the work, I always read some currency reports. It really interesting. I want to do an internship at FX Trading, but not sure how to ask my boss or ask employees in FX Trading for an internship. Should I write them an email?

How you would handle this situation?

Many thanks for your help
