International Student Spotlight
Conneja Stewart
Jamaica | Program: Photography

|
|
Q: Describe yourself.
A: I am a very passionate and driven person. I always try to give I I 0% in anything I am pursuing.
Q: Where are you from and what do you love/miss about it?
A: I am from Jamaica, what I miss most is the food, and right now maybe a little sunshine.
Q: What do you love about being here, what surprised you the most about the country/customs/food/etc.?
A: What I love about being here is how different it is from my country. Traveling and experiencing as many places as possible is one of my life's dreams. Wisconsin is very beautiful, both with people and landscape. What surprised me the most here was my new discovery of "ice fishing". That people are either brave or crazy enough to drive out on a frozen body of water to go fishing. That was completely new for me.

Q: What is the biggest difference between your hometown and here?
A: The biggest difference between my hometown and here would be the structure. Living in a developing country is different from living in a developed country.
Q: What are some customs from your culture, and what do you miss the most?
A: Carnival- which is like a huge parade on the streets around Easter. I think that's a time where people are very social and unified.
Also, just general gatherings with friends and families.
Q: What is your goal while here at NWTC and plans after graduation?
A: My goal while at NWTC is to gain as much knowledge as I can that will aid me in my field of study. After graduating I hope I find a job I love in that field.
