Personal Interests

I love spending time with my family. Simplest things in my life give me the greatest pleasure such as a good chat, cooking a good meal or spending time with my friends. I like travelling, discovering new places and experiencing new things.

Campus Life

I really enjoy UC and its warm and relaxed campus culture. Here, I know that I am surrounded by people who care about my success and education.

I really enjoy Christchurch because it isa great place to live.It is close to nature with breathtaking outdoors just around the cornerand friendly people who just make it even more awesome.

I really enjoy New سԹbecauseof its welcoming people and beautiful nature. A picturesque country with high quality of life makes NZ a pretty great living place for me.
