A typical Tuesday...

For me starts with sport in the morning and a healthy tasty breakfast. After that, I usually head to the library and study until lunch time. For lunch, I like to get together with my friends and go somewhere near and get some takeaway food so we can eat on the roof of the Yura Student Housing. When the sun shines I stay a little bit longer and enjoy the sun. From 2 to 6 pm I have a software engineering practice class. After that the hunger is ringing again, on Tuesdays we like to go to restaurant El Camino Cantina where there is a special taco Tuesday offer and a happy hour until 7. After that, we usually go to someone's apartment and let the evening end comfortably. Of course, not every day is like this; I have at least three days a week to explore and enjoy Sydney. The university occupies me about 3-4 days a week. But this is a personal matter of time management.

When I am not studying you most likely find me...

Somewhere in the city. I like to explore Sydney, some of my favourite places are Darling Harbour or the Botanical Gardens. I also go on weekend trips with my friends.

My favourite thing about my experience so far is...

Living in such a big city and meeting so many new people from all over the world.

Something I want to tick off my bucket list...

A spontaneous Road Trip With Friends, I was already able to tick this off my bucket list; we made a two day trip to Jervis Bay, which I can recommend.

My one must visit in Australia...

I haven't travelled that much through Australia so I can't say for sure. For the moment it would be to visit the Royal National Park, including the figure eight pools.

See you soon!
