It was a fantastic adventure

The international student volunteers (ISV) program in New Zealand was amazing! It was a month-long, full-immersion exploration of the country consisting of two weeks of conservation work and two weeks of adventure. We met and spent the night at a Maori village and learned and participated in their traditions and culture. We explored the northern and southern islands from east to west and from sky to sea. I went skydiving (separate cost) and glacier hiking (included). I met some wonderful people and cherish some amazing photo memories of my time there (and this was back in 2006!). I'm sure the program has only gotten more amazing. I don't have a single negative memory - it was all wonderful and I fully recommend it to anyone.
