Since I arrived at Louisiana State University, also known as LSU, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, I have been overwhelmed with how different the university experience in the United States is compared to back home in Australia.

Rotterdam, the city with more heart than any other. After living in Rotterdam for just over a month, and having travelled Europe for almost 2 months, I would highly recommend, support and applaud any smart soul considering studying in this beautiful city which is now no longer Holland in my mind, a far and distant…
