University: Portsmouth University

For how long: 12 months

.

Amy started her Hospitality Internship in Christchurch, New Zealand in July 2009 and I was speaking to her this morning by email and all seems to be going well.

Another of our hospitality students, Susie is also heading down to Christchurch for a six month internship and will be on her internship at the same hotel as Amy. So as we speak I think they are emailing each other to find out how things are going in Christchurch.

Christchurch is known as the Garden City of New Zealand and is one of the largest cities in the South Island of New Zealand, with a population of just over 350,000. In the summer you can enjoy the river Avon and the beautiful gardens and parks around the city. In the winter you are very close to the best ski slopes in the Southern Hemisphere!

The feedback so far from Amy is that she is loving her internship and with her parents heading out to visit her in New Zealand around Christmas, I’m sure Amy will have lots to tell us about her travels.

Hope you have a great trip with your parents Amy and can’t wait to hear how everything is going!

Cheers,
Jon
