Few years ago, I had an opportunity to study in Australia. I had been studying English and living in Melbourne for a year. It has been a quite unique and an unforgettable experience to me so far. I learned a lot not only English but also life experiences which made me get more knowledge and mature, too.
I wasn't very nervious at Melbourne airport alone at the first day of Australia but excited and tired after a long flight. I lived with a single family and another oversea student who was korean. My homestay monther was very nice to us and she helped us to get used to living here a lot, such as opening an account in the bank, introducing environment and showing us locations. I adapted living in Melbourne soon without homesick but I still missed taiwanese food much especially I missed hot soup, hot noodles and hot pot the most in the winter. After few months I moved out and I lived with an Austrailian guy and a Chinese girl in a share-shouse. I was a bit sad to move out because of a tight budget and I was a bit nervious to live in a share-house because it's the first time I live with strangers who I totally don't know them at all. I didn't live there in a long time because they had a different schedule from me which was very annoying. The most serious problem was that my landlord's son had some mental problems and he was getting serious. I remembered the day I moved out there were few police officers trying to persuade him to go to the hospital. I think I was lucky to move out earlier otherwise I really didn't know what will happen to me. At last, I moved to live with a Thai couple who were friendly and they were students, too, so it made me feel confortable to live with them. I liked to live there becasue it was in a quiet area although it was a bit far to go to school by feet.
I had been living in different placese in Melbourn and each place gave me different ideas and feelings. I got a lot of experiences that I had never had when I lived in Taiwan. I think it is a good opportunity to learn and to experience different lives by studying abroad. No matter good or bad things what I had or learned which help me to grow up and to be more independent.
