For my study abroad requirement, I participated in a three-week faculty-led program called "Life as a Signer." We traveled to various cities in New Zealand and Australia to learn more about their unique sign languages and Deaf communities.
Here is a video that includes a program overview, trip highlights, and student testimonials.
Here are some pictures from my time in New Zealand and Australia!
In New Zealand, we visited Wellington, Rotorua, and Auckland. Next, we flew to Melbourne and Sydney, Australia. At each location, we connected with the Deaf community, sign language students, and local cultures.
