Life in NZ...

Hah! Been a while, isn't it? Well, truth be told, I'm still getting used to the life here in New Zealand (for those of you who doesn't know, I flew here on 10th February).

Summer's almost over (boo-hoo, right?) but classes have begun (WTF?!?!?) and honestly, I'm enjoying the classes!

NO, REALLY! I ENJOY THEM! Why you ask? Haha.. The first two weeks (no, three weeks) here were BORING... Even with the bus trip around Dunedin and the train trip to Middlemarch were not that tempting anymore... (Pictures, click HERE for bus trip and HERE for train trip)

Well, life here couldn't be any simpler... Thanks to my experiences (ehem!) living with my parents in Paris, I'm used to living overseas, or more importantly, living in a foreign country... But, as always, the trickiest part is helping others to cope and get used to the environment of drunk people, early sunrises and late sunsets (this is summer, NOT winter) and getting used to the prayer times..

Oh, speaking of prayer times... There's a mosque here in Dunedin! Well, it's not that big, but still, it can host up to a few hundred people at a time (pretty darn good for Friday prayers).. Apart from that, shopping malls and supermarkets are all in the walking distance..

Anyway, won't ramble much.. I will definitely post something again next week, showing you guys pictures instead of me rambling on and on.. haha..

Till the next post!

With all due respect,
