Amazing Experience in NZ

HECUA New Zealand was a truly remarkable experience. The combination of field study, internship, independent research and more traditional class is an unparalleled way to live, experience and learn about New Zealand. The program staff is supportive, helpful and generous. My internship at an environmental education center in Wellington helped me realize my passion for environmental education, and teaching in general. My individual research project about the Quaker Settlement in Whanganui allowed me to engage with new concepts and connect with interesting people. I loved living in Wellington-- having a bus pass and being connected with a frisbee team were some of the highlights of my time. Charles, the main director of the program is an incredible teacher, mentor and quasi-guardian.
