It's a long way from India's crowded capital Delhi, but after just two months in Auckland, international student Anuradha Bhattacherjee feels at home.
"I'm not at all homesick. Everybody feels like a family here. If I'm in class, everybody's interacting. I can talk to anybody. The professors are always available," she told Newshub.
Bhattacherjee is studying a masters in architecture at Unitec, which is experiencing a mini-boom in international student numbers from India.
"We have grown about 110 percent in terms of the demand from India compared to 2019 figures," said Don Sirimanne, head of product marketing and international market development at Unitec-Te Pūkenga.
Staying is the plan for Bhattacherjee. She loves the lifestyle.
"I would want my parents to be here, too. I'm a single child, so I would want my parents to be here with me. I want to stay here. It's really good," she told Newshub.
Because, she says, unlike in Delhi she can breathe here.
在主流媒体称国内无法呼吸,来这里像回家一样。还坦言不但要留下,因为是独生子女所以也要把父母弄过来。
就是这么直率这么赤裸。反观我们,真需要深刻反思了。
