“Studying at the University of Tasmania, I got to make very valuable connections with international friends and lecturers. Commuting to university and seeing the beautiful scenery around me always lifts up my mind. Most of our classes are not only made of Australian students but also of international students, not from a specific country but from various different countries. I feel like that’s the beauty of Australia and Tasmania as well, people from different cultures and countries coming together.”
