Finally it is ... loooong after about a year of planning and design and planning, I am in Australia.
I flew to meet my long awaited desire - down under!
(are short with mean 16 hours) with a relatively brief stop in Hong Kong, I landed after a 22 hour flight and healthy sleep in Brisbane, Australia.
to my stopover in Hong Kong, I can say one thing: Eng! Yes, the city is quite populated narrow. I always thought London would have quite a few skyscrapers, but acts against Hong Kong and our good old Frankfurt as a spot on the map in terms of area although this island is not that great. After an intensive guide to Willi (Our guide) through the city and environment, I fortunately found its way back to the airport where I spent another 5 hours until the flight went on.
received arrived in Brisbane myself an employee of the university.
enter the first time the street, I made acquaintance with the Australian heat wall.
were true it is "only" 30 degrees, however, the United States compared with a different climate.
After a short account at my Wohnheimtverwaltung me the entire complex via Caddy (golf cart) is shown. Bungalows, tennis courts, basketball, volleyball, swimming pools, ... but you just look at the pictures in the coming weeks.
The University of the Sunshine Coast is located about 150 km north of Brisbane and is populated quite thin. It is pretty much the most easterly point of Australia (so much for orientation).
There are a few small settlements in the area and the beach is about 20 minutes by bus approx.
There are quite a few Europeans and Americans here. My bungalow in part I with three other room mates who are from Canada, England and Australia. These are all very friendly and very English.
on time at 9pm (12:00 pm German time) I fell into a deep sleep. has
Today it had to ... the Orientation week began.
Super faculty and staff with much humor designed a beautiful and informative day.
The university is very clear. It is taught by the Harvard-concept and experience is reported to be very effective. Well wait wirs.
the day verlieft otherwise very nice ... a bit between swimming in the pool, a game of volleyball and delicious fruit. Here are the fruits taste import somehow freer than us * grin *
Ah yes, the time difference between Germany and Brisbane is exactly 9 hours.
The expected jet lag was fortunately out because of the complicated journey.
I'm really looking forward to what awaits me in all this semester and you are about to hopefully at least in digital form.
I'll try a regular Intervals, a few of my experiences with pictures here to provide clean and I am of course about every comment from you
So now's go!!
