Philipp Preusser - Germany, July 2012 to July 2013
Hey, I’m Philipp from Frankfurt, Germany. I spent a full year staying in New Zealand at Horowhenua College. It’s been a great chance for me to improve my English. Doing sports at this school is great fun since all the team mates have always been nice and kind. I made a lot of new friends. Now that I have come to the end of my stay, I just want to do it all again. » View all testimonials
