  • The Sophian Experience

    So I’ve been gradually adjusting my life here in Japan and so far, I think I’m finally getting out of that holiday mood and into study mode. My grades thank me. I applied for Sophia University in Tokyo thinking that university life here was going to be similar back home in Sydney, but there were…

  • Copenhagen University, Denmark

    Hej from Copenhagen! It has now been 4 weeks since I packed up life in Sydney and got on the plane to Denmark to begin my semester abroad at the University of Copenhagen. I have absolutely fallen in love with the city – it is the most beautiful city I have ever been to and…

  • Copenhagen University, Denmark

    It has been a month since I arrived in Copenhagen, and I can safely say it has been one of the best months of my life. I have been staying at BaseCamp, which is student accommodation that is situated right in the centre of the city.  My room is lovely and spacious, and adding a…

  • Sogang University  – 4 month experience

    What are the facilities like at your host university? The facilities are quite clean upon arrival but future newcomers must be prepared to realise that there is no kitchen available to cook any food, which was quite a downfall. But the cheap food will make up for that predicament. How does the teaching style differ…

  • Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam, Netherlands

    -How’s life in your host city? What’s the uni like? Life in Rotterdam seems to be much more laid back then Sydney. The people are all lovely and are happy to help you navigate your way around the city – the most popular way to get around the city is by bike, I ended up…

  • Uppsala University, Sweden

    At the start of this year, I would never imagine that I would have travelled to Sweden alone to study at Uppsala University. Uppsala is a relatively small town in the grand scheme of things however, it is the 4th biggest city in Sweden. I am in awe of the country’s approach to recycling and…

  • Yonsei University, South Korea

    Arriving in Seoul Korea 21st of August 2019. Sydney Airport. International Departures. I knew it was going to be difficult. It was daunting to embark on a journey which I knew was going to be the most challenging period of my life. Going on exchange would be the first time I would be living away…

  • Danmarks Tekniske Universit, Denmark

    Having spent less than a week in Denmark, it’s impossible to properly describe Danmarks Tekniske Universit (DTU) or give justice to Copenhagen as the diverse city that it is. I’m sure I’ll look back at this post in a month or so with plenty of asterixis and caveats to add. I’ll start with the basics;…

  • IE University, Spain

    So my name is Abhijeet Parge and I’m currently an student exchange for Spring 2019 at IE University in Madrid, Spain. So far, I’ve backpacked Europe for about a month, covering 12 countries in 7 different countries! I settled in to my student accommodation in Madrid about a week ago, however, the place is still…

  • Welcome | Selamat Datang | வரவேற்பு | 欢迎 to Singapore!

    Multicultural, cheap food, great night life and close to home- what more do you want? Nanyang Technological University lies in the very west of the bustling city of Singapore. Whilst it is over an hour away from the city via public transport (20-30 minutes by Grab/Uber), the university is its own city with multiple restaurants,…
