The oldest chain bridge in Budapest.
So, my second European holiday destination was Hungary, or more specifically, Budapest. I headed over there a few weekends ago with another Australian exchange student. I’d heard a lot of good things about Budapest, so my expectations were quite high and not only did it live up to those expectations, it far exceeded them. I loved Budapest, it was wonderful! I think part of the reason I enjoyed it so much in Budapest was the weather. I know talking about the weather is a bit mundane, but to go from Prague, where it’s been averaging about 15oC and is often cloudy [View Full Entry]

Guten Tag meine Damen und Herren, So, the first of my many planned trips around Europe this year was to Berlin on the Easter long weekend. I headed over there with an Austrian friend, although she was in Hamburg for half the time we were there. Despite my previous disinterest in anything German, I really enjoyed being there, much more than I had expected I would. My first impression of Germany, as we were travelling from Prague to Berlin on the train, was that it looks just like a more upmarket version of the Czech Republic! The buildings and cities looked [View Full Entry]

Ahoj! Hope that you're all doing well and for those of you in Australia, specifically Adelaide, that you're managing to survive the heat! This blog is gonna be quite long, sorry. I've been meaning to write for ages but have been sick for a while and have been incredibly busy with lots of different things. Anyway, it's here now, hope you all enjoy it and that it answers some of the questions I've been getting. Uni’s definitely in full swing here now, which is partly why I've been so busy - everything’s crept up on me and then all of a [View Full Entry]

Well, I’ve been in Prague just over a week now and what a week it has been! It’s been an incredibly difficult and frustrating week but also very rewarding and I’ve already done lots of interesting things here. Everything here got off to a bit of a bad start basically from the minute I arrived at the airport. Getting from the airport to my dormitory was a minor disaster, mainly because of lack of communication. I took public transport to get there - ended up waiting an hour for a bus that was never going to come because it doesn’t run [View Full Entry]
