Valentina, 20, UCV student, Semester abroad at @waikatouniversity, Hamilton, New Zealand
“I decided to spend my semester abroad in New Zealand to discover more about the nation’s relation to environmental conservation and equality. Dealing with new settings and cultures encouraged me to question myself and learn.
NZ is very inspiring, mostly Kiwi’s philosophy and way of life. Respect is key in relationships with people and the environment. This mindset inspired me to take part in the @beet.green.committee to encourage pro-environmental behaviour at UCV. New Zealand was a beautiful country filled with beautiful people. I recommend anyone who goes there to take the time to talk to Kiwi’s and learn more about their philosophy of living. Fun fact: Aotearoa (New Zealand in Maori) means ‘land of the long white clouds’. ”
