  • Aarhus School of Architecture, Denmark

    Life in Aarhus, and in Denmark is best described using the Danish word “Hygge” – it’s a word that can’t be translated in English but is the feeling of cosiness and wholesomeness. The people here are warm and welcoming, despite the reputation that Danish people are stand-offish (they’re not!). If you are easy-going and love…

  • The cozy city of Eindhoven, the Netherlands

    The Netherlands is a beautiful, rich, diverse country that is a fantastic place to live, work, and study and is the perfect location to choose for UTS Global Exchange. I am studying a Master of Architecture at Technische Universiteit Eindhoven. I had the opportunity to undertake an internship 3 months prior to beginning the semester…

  • Budapest University of Technology & Economics, Hungary

    Szia, Budapest put lightly is a seriously great city. It has stunning buildings, great nightlife and an array of wonderful people you will quickly get to know in this small city. I would recommend it to anyone that would like to come on exchange here. The university is quite a lot different from UTS however…

  • Life’s A Smoothie, With A Side Of Pad Thai, Tom Yum And More

    There’s food everywhere! You can’t walk 5 meters without spotting another place to eat! It’s been almost three weeks since I arrived to Bangkok and for one, I can tell you I haven’t gone hungry. More importantly, I haven’t been dehydrated either. You’d think us Aussies would be well equipped to heat, but 33 degrees…

  • Aarhus School of Architecture, Denmark

    Why Denmark? I’ve been hearing that question a lot recently. Apart from the great architecture, the culture has always interested me and here’s some of the things I’ve experienced in my first couple of months of exchange. The general culture of Denmark is quite laid back and it didn’t feel terribly foreign from what I’m…

  • Bauhaus University, Germany

    Guten Tag. I’m currently on Global Exchange at Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany and have been here for just under 2 weeks now. It’s a small town located 3 hours south of Berlin and is famous for its arts, music and literature culture. Weimar towards the end of the 18th century was the centre of…

  • Danmarks Medie-og Journalisthøjskole (DMJX), Denmark

    Hej København! Without realising, almost two months have passed since I first began my semester abroad in Copenhagen. Since then, I’ve adjusted to the chilly weather, the steep costs for everything/eating out (not really, I’m still shocked), and become quite fond of this gentle city. I’m studying Graphic Design at DMJX’s (Danmarks Medie-og Journalisthøjskole/Danish School…

  • My Journey in Hong Kong – Hong Kong Polytechnic University

    My name is Xixi, I major in fashion and textile and I am currently completing my semester abroad at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. My time in Hong Kong is coming to an end and I can’t help it but to feel upset because I will miss this beautiful city and everyone that I’ve met…

  • Exchange Life in Milan – Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Italy

    After being on exchange in Milan for over two months, I’ve come to know one thing very clearly: fashion is everything for Italians. This city has a touch of style in all aspects of everyday life, whether you’re merely having a coffee at a local coffee shop or attending the Fashion Week and seeing the…

  • A Fashionable Summer in Milano

    Milano… the fashion capital of the world that lived up to my every expectation. My three week program ‘Fashion and Design Management’ at the University of Bocconi was something i had been planning and hoping of getting into for two years. The University in it’s self is one of the top 10 business university’s in…
