First days in Japan
The last week or so before I left it started to set in that I was about to move so far away. Before then it did not really feel like a reality that I was about to be living so far away from home.

It was a bit stressful making sure that I had everything ready to go, but with a consistent plan and support system it all worked out. Continue reading First days in Japan

A Subject Comparison of UNCW & Waikato
While studying at UNCW I am enrolled in 5 subjects. This crosses over to be equivalent to 4 Waikato Subjects. I am fortunate enough that I was able to find subjects that had enough cross-over that Waikato University allowed it to count towards my degree. And all going well, if I pass all these papers, I will have completed my degree while studying in America. Continue reading A Subject Comparison of UNCW & Waikato
