My semester abroad at Victoria University of Wellington through Richmond’s exchange program was a very unique time for me, both academically and personally. I was able to explore a new university, a new city, and a new part of the world while still productively completing my degree through Richmond University in London. Victoria University of Wellington is an impressive university with a wide range of courses and resources, as well as an active student life. Its campuses are lovely and I encourage you to both get involved with the school and explore Wellington, which is a lively, creative, and friendly city. Traveling opportunities and experiences in New Zealand are plentiful, especially when it comes to gorgeous landscapes, culture, and adventures. I hold this experience as very valuable, especially since I was able to have this opportunity in correlation to my studies at Richmond.
