Five months in
another culture on another continent, it all goes
too fast. I know it sounds cliche, but one
semester is just enough time to get really
immersed in something, then it is all over. It
was definitely the best experience of my life. I
would recommend it to anyone. Hopefully this site
will be helpful to students who are interested in
studying, working or traveling in Australia. I
will tell you that right now that the reason that
I went to Australia was to see the Outback and to
surf, not necessarily to take classes. However I
must say that Griffith University surprised me
with how well organized and professional it was.
It is located in Southport in the Gold Coast
region of Queensland. The University of Illinois
did not have a program set up with Griffith for
Exchange or Study Abroad, however was very
helpful with making things happen to give me this
incredible opportunity. I really want to thank
two people for all their help:
Seth Bush at the University of Illinois Study
Abroad Office sbush@uiuc.edu
Murray Fraser at the Griffith University
International Affairs Office murray.fraser@mailbox.gu.edu.au
Thank you so much. It wouldn't have been
possible without you.
