Political Risk Internship 2013

Goal: Land a political risk internship (US or international) in the summer of 2013.

Rising junior with a 3.8 at a non-target--Arabic, French and MENA studies major. Studying abroad in Morocco (best school there) for this entire year. Advanced Arabic, advanced Spanish, professional French fluency. Only relevant experience is unpaid blogging--paid positions not relevant. Possibly doing unpaid work at school think tank (MENA economic and foreign affairs focus).

How do I get there? And to where should I look?

[Best case scenario is internship in Europe, but any location would also work]
