A DAY IN YOUR LIFE AS A STUDENT IN ADELAIDE
It’s a warm summer day. You’ve been studying hard lately, so you
decide you deserve an afternoon off. As soon as class finishes, you
and your new friends from the Social Club head straight to the
tram stop on King William Street, a short walk from the College.

As the sun starts to set over the ocean, you decide it’s time for
some dinner. But, where to eat? Your new friends come from all
over the world, and they want to try different things. There are
so many different restaurants to choose from: Italian, Mexican,
Japanese, Chinese, or Ethiopian, to name a few. In the end, you
decide to go get some of the delicious (and cheap!) dumplings at a
favourite Korean restaurant. Accessible5

After dinner, one of your Aussie friends suggests heading to the within Adelaide CBD
Garden of Unearthly Delights to see some music acts. The Garden
looks magical, lit up with lanterns, and you spend the evening
talking, laughing and dancing. Years later, you’ll look back on that
