I debated for days as to whether I should stick to the norm of these blogs and sugar coat my experience with tales of beautiful scenery, new friends and experiences (all relevant), but I think it is really important for anyone considering exchange to understand that it isn’t just easy breezy socialising and flirting about…

I started my study abroad journey with a booking for a one-way flight to one of the largest cities in Scandinavia – Stockholm, Sweden. I ended up landing in this enormous city in the middle of winter. I was very cold, very jetlagged, knee deep in snow, and with no idea of what would happen…

31st July 2016. This marks the end of probably the most adventurous month that I have experienced to date. I wasn’t in Thailand for too long, in fact, it has only been two weeks. It still doesn’t seem like it though, because it felt like I was there for an entire semester. Within the short…

There are very few words that could sum up the amazing experience gained on this trip. KMUTT itself was an amazing education hub and was quite the cultural experience in comparison to UTS. The location itself was out of the way of the city and I felt that added to the experience of it, travelling…

I am currently halfway through my exchange experience studying at Shanghai University in China. A fact that I am still coming to grips with, it seems that only a week ago I said goodbye to my family and friends and hopped on a plane to China. I feel like that really summarizes the most outstanding…
