Hi everybody!

My name is Bui Vinh Nguyen. I come from Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam and I'm 17 this year. I have a great feeling for being in New Zealand and Wanganui High School for nearly 2 years. I love many things in Wanganui, New Zealand: whether (even though sometimes it's very cold, freezing), my school with lots of friends come from many different countries and kiwi as well, my homestay with wonderful host parents.

Nearly 2 years in New Zealand seems to be a long time for me, since the first time I came here until now, my English has improved a lot by the help from teachers and friends. Wanganui is a perfect place to study (I have to admit), I feel like very lucky to have an opportunity to come and study here.

In Wanganui, I have lots of activities, like playing soccer, basketball, tramping, fishing (my favorite) they're healthy and lots of fun, I have fun with my friends every weekend.

I enjoy my homestay very much, they're very kind to me and I have a great feeling being in my homestay as my own home in Vietnam, by the way, I love my host mum's cooking, I enjoy New Zealand food.

I love Wanganui High School, I love New Zealand.
