The semester here in Newcastle ended November 23rd and I am still loving every day being here. I am still on college enjoying the company of my flatmates until the on campus accommodation runs out on the 9th. These last few nights on college have been a rollercoaster. It seems like there will always be a &#8216;last time&#8217; for everything. With different travel plans, visa dates, and home lives- there has been a hard goodbye each day. It is amazing how impactful people can be on your life for such a short amount of time. In fact, my flatmate from Spain has already booked her ticket to Orlando, as well as a friend from England on college. Living somewhere temporarily really makes you cherish and appreciate each moment. A semester abroad forces you to live in the moment, a skill a lot of people struggle with or fail to have in general. It is almost this fact in particular that I would recommend; studying abroad teaches you many little &#8216;life hacks&#8217; so to say. After I leave Newcastle I will be traveling around Australia until the 19th. I am traveling with a couple of my flatmates as well my friend coming over from the States. It is always cool when your &#8216;two worlds&#8217; collide so to say. We are hitting four major cities in 10 days and I couldn&#8217;t be more excited. It will be a great send off exploring a new part of Australia with my new family over here. Next blog I will be in America! Looking forward to telling you about my trip.
