Rotary exchange year New Zealand

From July 2013 - July 2014 I will leave my ordinary life in Holland to go on a Rotary youth exchange to the other side of the world; New Zealand! I will go there on my own and get to know the culture and country by staying with different host families and going to school. I can't wait to tell you guys about my adventures! I'll try to be consistent and post lots of stories and photos but you'll see the real deal when I go back haha!

Ana Laura

My name is Ana Laura I am 19 years old and I use this blog to keep my friends and family updated on my most recent trips. Also I love to write and share my thoughts and experiences withe everyone who wants to hear them. My biggest passion is travelling which is why I look for all the opportunities I have to do so. I am half Dutch and half Mexican but secretly I don't feel like I strongly belong to any of those countries. More like a citizen of the world kinda thing! Enjoy!
