I love New Zealand, but not UoA

I've had an amazing time in New Zealand for my study abroad program! However, this was largely due to the travel and adventurous clubs I took part in. My experience at the university was subpar, especially compared to Canadian education (it pains me to say this, but it's true).
By all means, come to New Zealand if you're hoping to have incredible outdoor experiences and meet lovely people! The country is ridiculously easy to travel around, and the people (outside of Auckland) are very friendly and accommodating.
If you have the choice to study at Dunedin, I would recommend studying there rather than Auckland; they are supposed to have an amazing Uni culture! Furthermore, the education at UoA wasn't as challenging as I'm used to back home, but in a sense that allowed me to have plenty of free time and created a very stress-free environment :)
New Zealand is beautiful and unique, and that is what I have loved most my time abroad.
