BRB currently on a gap year down under
Manila, Philippines ✈ Canberra, Australia
Here you can find my thoughts, notes, photos as I enjoy the "still life"
Stop for a girl who hitchhikes. Stop for a girl with an adventurous spirit who isn’t afraid to leave her comfortzone. Someone who loves the open road and lives for the unknown. A girl who prefers to raise her thumb and put her trust in strangers rather than opting for the safer bus or train…
this was beautiful :(
hitch hiking is definitely gonna be in my bucketlist
The other day at work, I had a friend who asked me, “Why would you study in the Philippines?” For a second, I wanted to slap his face and go all E X C U S E M E, but truth is, he had a good point. My first year in university back home was challenging and the workload was a lot heavier than universities here. They have 15 hours of school a week, are you kidding me? It’s a far cry from my usual 7:30-4:30 classes and my 8pm to 1 am homework/study/read/write papers nightly sessions. Yet their universities here rank 40 in the world and ours……… well……490 something. Which begs the question, are we doing something wrong?:( would studying back home be worth it?

I’m not sure of a lot of things but I know it will be worth it.
