Australia Court
Living Down Under
When I moved to Sydney, Australia to attend Sydney Uni, I justified it to all my friends and family by saying that “if the ticket was so expensive, I might as well be there for awhile.” I left in July, thinking that this was it - one last flirtation with travel and life overseas before I finished up school and headed to the scary world of work and two-week vacations.
