Hands down the best time of my life. NZ is an amazing country with limitless beauty. If you are ever in a position to take a vacation or study abroad there is no better place than the lovely land of NZ. While abroad I endeavored to bungee jump three times, sky dive twice, sledge (river rafting w/out the raft), spelunker, Zorb, cable jump, kayak, hike a glacier, jet boat, mountain climb, play rugby, and oh yeah... study.
