Education Abroad Student Blog

Hi guys,

The past few weeks in Canada have flown, cannot believe my trip is going so fast! It seems like I started college a couple of weeks ago, yet I only have 3 weeks of classes left.
The weather is starting to get very cold, which means skiing and snowboarding time. :) Am looking forward to hitting a ski resort over here called 'Big White' as Aussies run and own it. As much as I love Canadians, I miss the Aussie accent and casual, laid back attitude!

Hi everyone, how are your trips going?

I'm absolutely in love with Canada; I could definitely live over here!
Over the last few weekends I have been doing a lot of traveling with the other international students. I have traveled through the Okanagan Valley, to Vancouver and to Banff.

Hi everyone, hope you're all enjoying your time in Australia or abroad. 

I am having a fantastic time in Canada so far, there's so much to do and see! On Saturday Mike (a Canadian student who was on exchange at Swinburne last semester) organised a rafting trip for all of the international students. We met at the college where a bus picked us up and drove us to the Thompson Ravine where we began our 38km rafting trip. The water was great - it was still but also rocky in some places and was actually quite warm as I discovered when one of the other guys on the raft pushed me in! We stopped for lunch halfway through and had a bbq dinner. It was such a fun day!
