Mid semester break was a perfect 2 weeks to reduce some assignment stress and not think about studying at all, although my grades aren&#8217;t that bad to be honest. I had not seen my boyfriend for almost 8 weeks, so I was happy to see him again.<\/p>\n<p>The first 5 days we went to Melbourne, which is absolutely an awesome city and Oh my gosh the food and the coffees, SO GOOD!! After Melbourne we hired a car to drive all the way back to Adelaide via the Great Ocean Road, such a beautiful trip as well. The last few days I showed him around Adelaide and we went to Gorge Wildlife Park to cuddle some koalas and wallabies, cuuute.<\/p>\n<p>In comparison to Holland, it&#8217;s a little harder for me to focus as good on studying living here, knowing that there is so much more to see in (South) Australia, I just want to travel and adventure! That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m planning two trips for after the semester, one in New Zealand and the other is the East Coast of Australia, I&#8217;m so excited!! All right, I first need to finish the semester, so let&#8217;s do some studying and beat those exams. Good luck to all of you, almost there!<\/p>\n<p>See ya,<\/p>\n<p>Lotte<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Liselotte Vixseboxse is on a semester exchange at Flinders University from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uu.nl\/en\">Utrecht University<\/a>, the Netherlands:\u00a0Semester 1 2017<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Read Liselotte&#8217;s 1st post <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/student-exchange-experiences\/first-weeks-in-australia-as-a-dutchie\/\">here<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Are you a student from one of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flinders.edu.au\/international-students\/student-exchange-study-abroad\/outbound\/programs-and-partners\/programs-and-partners_home.cfm\">our exchange partner institutions <\/a>wishing to study at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flinders.edu.au\/\">Flinders University<\/a> on an exchange?
