In the new year I will be spending 5 months overseas in Chicago, studying visual arts and majoring in photography.<\/p>\n<p>This is an experience I&#8217;ve wanted since the beginning of my first year, now going into my third I am prepared for the life changing experience &#8211; that will affect me as both a person and an artists. I am incredible excited about living on campus and being able to stay in the centre of the city, surrounded by such a rich and vibrant culture. Whilst there I will be exposed to a number of new things and meet people for different parts of the world.<br \/>\nI am excited to see how this experience will change me and how much of a positive impact it will have on me. I am specifically keen to see the art of the city and be exposed to artists who may never travel to Adelaide.<\/p>\n<p>This exchange will be a very different situation for me but I am very excited to jump straight into the deep end with it and learn as much as I can about a different city and country.
