Wellington botanical garden

We are placed at Wellington Botanical garden and the view is so magical. Truly happy that I found this gem/ internship. The NZ city is very vibrant and the atmosphere is really calm and chill. I wish I could shout but view is so serene I'm sure I will ruin it. My major is marketing but I am primarily interested in tourism so this internship is good to combine both my likes. Ciao!

Found great friends

In our botanical internship, I found great friends from Chile and Russia. We experienced daily life in Wellington, commuting to our workplace, living in the hotels, and traveling on weekends. My favorite trips we had was one weekend in Wellington and one weekend in Queenstown. Glad to have been a part of a happy bunch! Thanks IGS for arranging things for us, you are very organized and caring. Happy to be a part of this program.

I had the greatest 4 weeks of my summer in the Wellington garden! New Zealand is the perfect place for me, alongside Japan and Korea, so this is a very beautiful opportunity personally. people in NZ are cheerful. we learned about the operations of a botanical garden. the 25 hectares of specialized plant collections, colorful botanical displays, unique landscape, protected native forest, and views over Wellington City. I even saw a friend of mine visiting NZ and we bonded over snacks.
