Sorry for the late update, but I really want to thank everyone who donated or sent me well wishes. I really could not have gotten through THIS YEAR without your help and support. Again thanks everyone. Sending you all love. I can't wait to return and continue my PhD program. Bear hugs

    Kia ora everyone,

    I am happy to announce that I have been accepted to apply for a visa exemption to return to New Zealand. The Ministry of Education has agreed to sponsor me as one of the 250 International students allowed back into NZ. I have completed the Request for Travel and have now moved on to the Invitation to Apply application. Once that is accepted I will be able to apply for Managed Isolation and Quarantine.

    Thank you so much for all the support, sharing and donations. I greatly appreciate all the love. I can't wait to get back to New Zealand. This year has taught me a lot about gratitude and humbleness.

    Aroha nui,

    Octavius
