Great Time!
by: Ben Slama - United StatesProgram: TEAN - New Zealand - University of Canterbury, ChristchurchI had a great time in New Zealand!! Studying abroad in Christchurch was amazing and there are so many things to do within a short walk or bus ride. Absolutely amazing time hiking and taking advantage of the beautiful nature! Studying there was satisfying and I was able to learn so much!
Best four months of my life!
by: Sarah - United StatesProgram: TEAN - New Zealand - University of Canterbury, ChristchurchWorthwhile is an understatement when describing my time abroad. Although it may sound cliche, I absolutely feel like I grew and changed as a person during my time abroad. I came back to the US more confident, cultured, and with a new outlook on life. Traveling through TEAN allowed me to make friends, see incredible sights, and make unforgettable memories. If I could do it all over again, I would choose TEAN every time.
