Byron Bay!
During our time here, Rollins paid for all of the Rollins students to go on a trip to Byron Bay. This trip included snorkeling and a surfing lesson. We got in on the Friday and just walked around Byron. We had pizza on the beach and just relaxed. On Saturday, we woke up and went…
end of october
recently, i have gone to baryon bay on a Rollins trip. The trip was very organized and fun, but the highlight would have to be skydiving. Though this was not included in the trip by Rollins, we had free day to do whatever we wanted. For some crazy reason, I thought I should take advantage of…

Mollys 18th birthday!
So this month in Australia was incredible for so many reasons. One of them was the fact that it was my home stay daughter, Molly’s 18th birthday! This consisted of a huge weekend of festivities. In Australia, the legal drinking age is 18 so it is pretty much the equivalent to a 21st in America….
