I arrived to Brisbane on January 2011 and I can’t believe that my first semester here is almost over! Even though time has flown, and it has literally felt faster than ever before in my life, I also feel like I have done many things, experienced a new lifestyle, discovered incredible places and learned not only academically but socially, culturally and spiritually. This place has given my the opportunity to meet amazing and very different people that I would have never thought of, it has also offered me a great education so far. The time that I have spent here has made me grow a lot as a person, as a woman and as a student. I really look forward to all that is waiting for me….

Brisbane is a city that I can’t describe but I will try my best….it is not too big to get lost but not too small to get bored, it is as multicultural as it can get, it has a very good infrastructure but its close to nature, the river brings peace and there are beaches very close by. The weather is perfect! I love the way it is designed for cars and buses but also for bikes and pedestrians.
I bought a bicycle as soon as I got here and it is the most efficient transport! You can get to anywhere you want in a bike, using the bridges and green roads exclusively for bikes and people.
The City Cat of Brisbane is very efficient, I really enjoy hopping in this public transport on a sunny day and I can take my bicycle with me from one place to another. There are many areas of the city that I love, one of them is Southbanks where there is a nice temple next to the city cat stop.
Since I arrived to Australia, I wanted to see kangaroos and koalas and I have finally not only seen them but touched them…I could actually spoon a kangaroo! He didn’t seem to mind ;).
