 About me

18th June 2024

       I'm Seiya. I was born and raised in Japan. I am often looked scary from childhood, so I can feel you're afraid of me if you feel so. I used to be inclined towards cats, but I came to like dogs over cats because there are two dogs in my home in New Zealand, and when I get home, they come out and run to me. When I go back to Japan, I'm going to definitely miss them. That might sound very cliche for a student who chose New Zealand, but what I like would be rugby and nature. I used to play rugby when I was in Japan, and I often seem to play basketball by the way, but I rarely play it. I love to play and watch rugby. I'm going to watch the All Blacks game next month, so I'm literally excited. I also like nature, so I've climbed two mountains since I came here. It blew my mind. That was the one of the greatest experiences my whole life. I'm thinking about where should I go using next school, so if you could recommend some places to go, that would be great. Off-topic, I do like to study and learn English. I'm always studying English, and I'm more of a person who likes the feeling that I'm getting better at something, so I like to know English knowledge that I'm not sure, so if you happen to know interesting English words, I want you to teach me. Anyway, I'm glad to study in the EAP class. Nice to meet you.

    Hi Seiya. I recommand Mt Cargil in Dunedin. It is famous for the very big antenna on the top. And Flagstaff loop track in Dunedin is good too. At the top of this track, you can see the whole Dunedin.
    I am so glad that you like mountains.

    Hi Seiya, I respect you are always studying. Also, I am glad to know that you prefer dogs to cats.
    Anyway, I highly recommend you to visit Larnach Castle if you have never been to there.

    I didn't look you scary when I first talked with you. NZ has a lot of nature so I think here is the best place for you!

    As I said before, I have a big respect for your attitude toward studying English because I can't concentrate on studying for a long time. Let's improve each other until coming back to Japan!

      Hello my name is Athit Komin, my nickname is Alpha, people usually call me by my nickname. I lived in Bangkok which is the capital city of Thailand. Early this year, I just graduated from high school and I will be going to the university in Thailand this August. When talking about my favorite subject I like the most in high school would definitely be Physical Education because I do not have to think much during the class and I also get to play with my friends in this subject. During the study in Dunedin I am staying in Kenmure with Pooley’s family. I used to come to Dunedin for high school in Yr9 and Yr10, so I am very familiar with this place and the best part of Dunedin is the view of the city and  the beach. Coming back to Dunedin this time is to study an English course at the Otago University, the reason I choose this course is to improve my writing skills and also reading skills, which will help me in the future with my career. Furthermore, I am an easygoing and introverte

I have host mother, host father, host brother, host sister, a Japanese flatmate, a Chinese flatmate and two cats. Every day, I play with my host sister who is 5 years old. Actually, I was worried about every meals like if every dishes were not delicious… However, my host mother is good at cooking, so I eat tasty meals everyday! ☺︎ My favorite subject in high school was Music because I could play some musical instruments such as piano, mandolin, koto, guitar and so on. As I said, I like music. So, of course I like to listen to music. Also, I like to play musical instruments. I can play the flute and piano. I brought my flute to New Zealand and practice the flute sometimes. In addition, I love cats. When I was in Japan, I didn't have cats. But now I have two cats and they make me relaxed. No cats, No life. On the other hand, I don’t like to study. And I’m not good at keeping

      Hello, everyone. My name is Tsukino Watase. I am from Wakayama in Japan. My family members are mother, father, younger sister and one dog. And I live in Mosgiel with my host family who are host mother, father and one dog too now.       I think people who live in Dunedin is very friendly and kindly. People who do not know tell me about food taste like “This is so good” or “It’s nor good taste “ when I was shopping in supermarket with my host family. And I think they have a lot of talking when they have food with them family and friends comped with Japanese people.        My favorite time is eating, watching movies, listening to music, going for a walk and sleeping time. They make me happy and relax. However I often get too lazy if I have free time so I think it is not good point about me. On the other hand, I think I have skill of making happy myself so that is my good point.       I liked English class and art class when I was a high school student. I choose the EAP course becaus
