Anonymous asked: love your work! I suppose you did a BA in visual communications? I'm thinking of going to study in welly, what's it like as a city? what are the people like?

Hi anon! (no need to be anon btw :)

Thanks! I did a BDes majoring in Visual communications and minoring in graphics at Massey. You should definitely consider coming here to study. Wellington is my favourite city in NZ. I moved here 5 years ago, for uni and honestly? Now it’s the only city in NZ I could ever live in. I love that the city centre itself is quite small, so you can basically walk to anywhere you need. It just has such an easy-going, creative spirit, unlike Auckland where everyone is rushing to get somewhere and it’s huge and horrible and if you want to go anywhere you have to travel (sorry, I hate Auckland lol). I know people in other cities complain about the Wellington weather, but I moved here from sunny Nelson and am coping just fine. A bit of wind never hurt anybody! and you just can’t beat Wellington waterfront on a good day :)

Hope that little rant helps! haha
