  • Uppsala University, Sweden

    The first month of my exchange in Uppsala, Sweden has come and gone and there is not much chance of it slowing down any time soon. This is almost certainly because every day has been filled with so much fun, excitement, travel and learning. I am studying at Uppsala University which is located about an…

  • Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

    EXCHANGE! EXCHANGE! EXCHANGE! After chanting this word for the past two years, I am finally on exchange at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore – the Centre of Asia. My exchange journey started exactly two years ago, I met Minnie Zhu in one of UTS Mentoring Programs where she first said the word “exchange” to me.…

  • Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain

    You know you’ve gotten to Madrid when the streets are filled with happy doggos on their walks, large groups of jovenes (young people) serenading the parks with Maluma on their speakers, and everyone’s pet name is tio (directly translates to uncle, but it’s the equivalent of mate). It’s not just the doggos that make the…

  • University of Nottingham Ningbo, China

    Life in Ningbo is very refreshing, relaxing and overall just amazing. Ningbo is located away from all the hustle bustle, a very suburban area with vast lands, a stark contrast from Sydney. My host university UNNC (University of Nottingham Ningbo) has a beautiful campus, with scenic views, such as rivers and parks, on the routes…

  • Hej Hej Jönköping! Sweden

    I’m sitting here doing something I never imagined would become a reality for me. Writing a blog post from my student accommodation in Jönköping, Sweden.

  • A-Ö of Stockholm, KTH Sweden

    Heyo, my name is Jack Pascoe and I’m a Bachelor of Information Technology student in my final semester of my degree. I’m in Stockholm studying at KTH (Sweden’s top technical university). Stockholm is a really cool city, made up of 14 main islands and hundreds more smaller ones. It’s pretty cold, even in late summer…

  • Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

    I’ve found Singapore to be a land of contradictions. Its not like China where you see whacky stuff all the time. Its not like Hong Kong where you’re constantly floating in a sea of people and energy. This city-state is both super comfortable and super challenging at the same time. When you live on campus…
