  • Pandas, Needles and Chilli

    This was my first time going to Chengdu. I was born in Guangzhou, grew up in Shanghai and spent the last forty plus years in Sydney. And so, having spent more of my life in Australia than China, the chance to go back to China to study Traditional Chinese Medicine was a dream come true…

  • Meanwhile, in sunny San Sebastian…

    Over the past winter holidays, I had the amazing opportunity of visiting San Sebastián, Spain alongside three wonderful engineering peers. It was a two week engineering pro gram at the University of Navarra. The four of us from UTS had been split up into two of the three available courses, one focusing on drug development…

  • Paris – City of Love

    I spent two weeks in Paris studying Luxury Brand Management at the Paris School of Business.  The weather is absolutely wonderful over there, summer in Paris is so different compared to Sydney.  The sunsets don’t come until 10 pm, with night time being quite short. The summer weather was so comfortable at 27 degrees. We…

  • Tschüss to Travels in Berlin

    My BUILD abroad trip was my first time to Europe it was definitely an awesome way to wrap up five years of hard work on my undergrad in law and business (economics). In January I went to Berlin to study ‘Introduction to International Economic Law’ at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (I’ve been told that the name isn’t…

  • Berlin 2018

    I really enjoyed my time in Berlin at Humboldt University. The course ‘Introduction to International Economic Law’ was extremely interesting. Our teacher, Hanno, delivered the content in a very enjoyable and understandable way. The classroom atmosphere was relaxed and open, and our classmates gradually became our friends. There were students from all over the world…

  • Adventures in Berlin

    Guten tag! In January, I was lucky enough to study abroad at Humboldt University in Berlin. It was an incredible adventure that I wouldn’t have experienced if I had just travelled there for a holiday. At UTS, I study forensic biology but the course I chose to complete in Germany was “Human Rights: Gender, Racism…
