Arriving all alone in the city of Bangkok late at night was a little frightening. I was tired and only had a few notes to get me from the Airport to the hostel where I would stay one night before starting the BUILD program at KMUTT. This dark lonely place of scammers and people trying…

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…

My time spent in Wuhan at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) was a great experience. Wuhan is one of the major cities within Central China. Because of this, less foreigners frequent the city as they would Beijing or Shanghai. This means what I was exposed to was a very traditional Chinese culture, free…

I applied to this program and I was not sure if I will attend or not, because I was doing my internship last semester and my workplace asked me to stay for the summer break. This program was in the city of Surabaya, organised by ITS University. This exchange program was one of the best…
