| Lincoln's Flat Rock, the magnificent photo opportunity |
I was
really finally here! It is a magnificent feeling when you actually achieve
something you have been working for a long time and never really believed it
could come true. This whole thing has been like that. The cost of it, the
visa, finding a school… But now I’m here, awesome! :)
Before the
real uni life begins there are a lot of different kinds of pre-orientation
activities around the campus and trips around Sydney. The first one was a free lunch - how
convenient on my first day here! Well, it was a cup of nice sweet corn soup and
a piece of some bread, maybe something foccaccia-like. But I hadn’t eaten
anything after the plane had landed at 5 am.
I spent my first weekend having an amazing
Wilderness Weekend organised by the uni and the Colourful Trips. The bus picked
us up from the uni and then we spent the whole weekend driving around and seeing some
really awesome things! That is Blue Mountains National Park, the Three Sisters
rock formation, the Jenolan Caves, free kangaroos, an authentic Aussie pub, had
an authentic Sausage Sizzle Aussie style, took the magnificent photo
opportunity at the Lincoln’s Flat Rock and in the Featherdale Wildlife Park we
saw KOALAS! Among many other authentic Aussie species.
