Review

This is my first visit to New Zealand and I am loving my experience so far. New Zealanders are very friendly people and the weather here is good too ( I am from a country where its around 30-35'C throughout the year).
Living in Huia Residence (a University hall) provided me with the chance to meet many interesting people from all sorts of backgrounds because there are so many exchange students living here. I am glad I made the right choice to stay in a University hall. I really appreciate the time spent learning about other cultures and languages.
Also, I got to visit the beautiful south island during mid semester break. The view was impressive! I took this opportunity to try Skydiving, Bungee jumping and Aerobatic flight. It was awesome! They are all very unforgettable memories.
The lecturers here are friendly and helpful, but the officers in study abroad office wasn't very helpful. It was hard to reach them as they were mostly not in the office during the start of the semester (when exchange students like me needed help the most).

However, it is still a good experience and I would recommend any student who may be interested to come over for an exchange.

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
