The first time I laid my eyes on Dornbirn in Austria, I felt a feeling you might not expect. It was cold, gloomy, quiet and dark. We had just landed in Zurich and took a painstakingly crowded 3-hour train ride with 2 pieces of luggage and a backpack while also trying to keep our sanity.…

I’ve been in Eindhoven for 3 weeks now and have thoroughly enjoyed all that has happened so far. As expected everyone rides bikes and it’s awesome.

When you hear people reminiscing about their time on exchange you can guarantee that at some point they will refer to it as being the best time of their life. I always thought this was a little extreme, but after only a week of being in Sweden it is already coming close. UTS orientation week…

Berlin feels like a collective of smaller cities within the city, with endless parks, galleries, neighbourhoods, repurposed buildings and clubs to explore. I have only been here a few weeks, but it has been a lot of fun exploring the city so far. Each day, Berlin reveals something different and exciting, and it has a…

Whilst this is not my first time in Hong Kong, it always surprises me how busy and bustling this compact city can be. It is a crazy mixture of both modern design and its historical heritage. I have come into this exchange experience, with a want to submerge myself in a different lifestyle and to…
