Start with my adventures in Australia

This blog is mainly recording my life while I am studying in Australia. I think I am so lucky to be entitled to receive a grant from the Ministry of Education which enables me to study abroad for one year at the Australian Maritime College.

Here goes my life abroad, I hereby would like to share this with my friends. The day I departed for Australia, my mom drove me to the Kaohsiung international airport. Actually I was not that saddened at that time because I know I am going to experience a brand new adventure which is far cry from Taiwan, the home I used to belong.

The dreamland I am going to land is called Tasmania which is separated from the rest of Australia by the 240 km stretch of Bass Strait,Tasmania is an island apart -a place of wild and beautiful landscapes,friendly ,welcoming people,a pleasant,temperate climate ,wonderful food and wine. Maybe I am giving too much credits for my destination. :)

The school institution where I study at is the Australian Maritime College or AMC, it is a specialist institute of the University of Tasmania and I have access to world-class teaching and research facilities because it's said that AMC is top 5 institution in marine industry worldwide which I found very impressive .

That's why I believe the AMC is my ticket to the world.
