WEEK 9

Week 9 was our spring break week! We left for Cairns early on Saturday morning. There was some difficulty traveling with our luggage and attempting to pack everything we bought into two bags but eventually we made it through and all made it on our flight. We stayed in a hostel at Gilligan’s with the same roommates I had in Australia. Once we arrived on Saturday we took the time to wander around Cairns and explore the area. We also headed down to the pool before heading to our group dinner with everyone on the GAV program. Since we were […]

WEEK 8

Week 8 was our final week here in Sydney, Australia. It is so bittersweet to be leaving as this has been one of the best experiences of my life but I am so excited for what the rest of the trip holds as well. This week was unfortunately super busy with finishing up classes and finals so there was not a ton of time to spend in the city. On Monday of this week I spent a lot of the day preparing for finals and getting myself organized for the week. I spent Monday at a review session for my […]

WEEK 7

This past week during our 7th week here we explored some more and continued to enjoy our time here. Starting Monday and Tuesday was a slow start to the week.

On Tuesday I headed over to Bondi to look for some souveniers to bring home and went on the Bondi to Coogee cliff walk. Wednesday I had two classes and then we decided to have a barbeque with some friends at their apartment. They have a nice outdoor grill so […]

WEEK 6

This past week was our 6th week here! So we had lots of midterms to complete and spent a good amount of time on classes but still stayed in Sydney and explored around here :)) Starting Monday, I decided to go for a walk in the morning to the Opera House. Unfortunately, just as I reached that point it started pouring rain and thundering. I hid out in a nearby museum for a while before deciding to run home as my class was starting in a few hours and I still had to dry off. The weather here is so […]

Week 5

For week 5 here we started our new classes. For these 2 classes I am taking Business Law and Federal Tax and Income. On Monday I started off with our Business Law class from 3:30 to 7:00. Then on Tuesday I did not have class so I headed over to Bronte Beach with my roommate Anna. We stayed their for the most of the day and some other friends also showed up while we were there. We then headed over to Bondi when it started raining to pick up some food until the rain passed. We spent the rest of […]

Week 4

Week 4! During week number 4 here we spent more of our time in Sydney. This week was pretty busy as many of us for finishing up our courses and preparing for our finals. Monday morning we got back to Sydney very early so I took the morning to unpack and prepare for the week. Wednesday I had a final during class for my Global Management course. It was a lot of writing but not terrible. Our professor then took us out to dinner at a Malaysian restaurant to celebrate the end of the class here. For some of my […]
