Kia ora! (That's hello from New Zealand) 
My name is Emme and am a rising senior studying Physical Sciences, Natural Resources & Environmental Sciences, and Global Food Systems Leadership at #KState.

I just recently hopped off my 15-hour flight from Houston, TX 🇺🇸to Auckland, New Zealand🇳🇿 to climb aboard another plane to Queenstown for my six-week education #abroad program through the #Gilman Scholarship Program and USAC. 🛩 
I will be traveling through New Zealand for two weeks completing case studies related to agriculture and environment practices and issues. Then, I’ll be settled in Hawke’s Bay for a four-week internship.

Fun fact: that super long plane ride was actually my first flight since I was five years old! 
Also, since it was dark for my entire journey, I never got to see the Pacific Ocean 😢. During my second flight, I was able to catch some amazing photos of the North and South Islands including Mount Taranaki!

Stay tuned to catch more of my journey abroad! #studenttakeover #studyabroad
