A bit less than two weeks remain in the application process for the second round of the Sammic BasqueStage scholarship.  This program offers you the chance to live in your own apartment, steps away from a three-star restaurant in Basque Country where you work under chef Martín Berasategui. There are few opportunities as incredible, where you can both learn and foster your creativity in such a high-caliber environment.

What exactly do you get if you are the next Sammic BasqueStage?

• a plane ticket to Europe
• an apartment for the duration of your stay
• a job placement in one of the world’s best restaurants
• 500 euro monthly stipend
• a blog to document your adventure
• the opportunity to film cooking videos (and garner some cool clips for the future!)

The applications are rolling in steadily, but there’s still time for those who have just recently found out about the opportunity, perhaps through their culinary school or our coverage by media outlets such as Bon Appetit.

To apply, visit our homepage.

You can read tips from our current stages, Tracy and Athena, here.
