Yulia, 20, Vladivostok

I was advised to use Irina and Evan’s company by friends who had already gone to New Zealand through them. I was also lucky to meet the Directors of the company in Vladivostok at that time. At our meeting, she and her husband Evan Gray clearly explained the immigration rules and the documents that needed to be collected, as well as sharing with me interesting information and personal experiences of living in this country, which gave me even more confidence that New Zealand was the right choice for me! I decided to leave my Russian University after 2 years of study as I thought I would find a better life in New Zealand. Of course there were questions which came up during the process of collecting documents and the visa process, but they were immediately solved by Evan. I got my student visa to go to New Zealand very quickly, in just three days in fact, which was undoubtedly due to the excellent work of the company and its good reputation with the New Zealand Embassy in Moscow. Mrs Gray chose a very good English college for me, where my English improved considerably. It’s no secret that those of us coming from Russia arrive with only average English. After finishing my English course, I went to study at the prestigious Professional Bar & Restaurant School, which I really enjoyed. I also worked in a cafe, which gave me additional income. In general, I was very pleased with the work this company did for me and the choice of this wonderful country. Thank you!
