I completed the Nature Sit Spots assignment for my SUSTAIN 200 Citizenship Passport, and through it I discovered a lot of interesting spaces around AUT and the University of Auckland that I had not noticed before. Some of these places are slightly hidden, while others are spots we may walk past every day without realising they are there. Visiting them gave me a chance to slow down, and feel more connected to nature during a busy university day. I created this website to share these spaces with other students and to make them easier to find.
I would also like this website to grow over time. Hopefully in the future, students will be able to submit their own nature sit spots on campus, and hopefully future features could include student ratings, comments, or personal recommendations for each place.
