One might think that there is absolutely nothing funny and exciting about studying business and economics and one would be RIGHT. Want to know what is though ? Taking a break from this run for academic credits, catching the first world map you can find and picking a country out randomly to perform a six month internship. Be brave and keep your fingers crossed not to be sent into a war area out of randomness of course (rumour has it doing sales analysis and struggling for your life at the same time is quite a bit unpleasant) Faith got my back on that one and decided that I would call Auckland home for the next six months of my life. I can already feel your jealousy reaching its higher level when reading that but get over it I'm not done. They say heaven differs from a person to another one. Little did they know that New-Zealand has proved it wrong by being everybody's one. Should you be into mountainous landscapes or more like stunning beaches this country has it ALL. Let yourself be amazed by Coromandel and its white sand beaches, say Kia ora to Bay Of Islands and its dolphins playing around the very boat you are sealing on. Another thing that also struck me here is the weird aspect of social relationships: when studying in Europe one would hardly make friends from a neighbouring country but all of a sudden you find yourself miles away from home and get close to Dutch and German people working your english hard to make yourself clear. Funny how you have to fly for 31 hours to meet people who live 1 hour away from your hometown. Oh and please if like me your blood is a real melting-pot of origins try not to be surprised when people guess where you are originally from. From Asia to South America going through Portugal I just don't know who I am anymore. Still recovering from this identity crisis at the very moment I'm writing you those lines. In other words, if you are after a life-changing experience DO NOT think twice and go ahead because that's exactly what's around the corner for you down here in New-Zealand. Cheers !
