    Life After Toronto: Where Next?

    January 28, 2020 /

    By Paul Alex Treadaway, University of Toronto I genuinely have no idea what I’m doing or why this photo was taken in Guanajuato, Mexico By May last year not only was the Toronto cold beginning to lose its bite as the snow melted into a optimistic Spring, I was all done and dusted studying at U of T. Home time? Well no, not quite yet. The explorer inside me, (Insert a hilarious Dora the Explorer joke here) had some unfinished business to attend to.

    10 Things I miss about living in Toronto and studying at U of T

    December 1, 2019 /

    By  Paul Alex Treadaway, University of Toronto After six months away from the University of Toronto and the city itself, here are just some of the many things I miss about the city and my time studying there! 1. Tim Hortons Tims is an institution – its hard to explain why. It’s simply always there for you when you need it, morning, noon and most of the night. Coffee, TimBits, surprisingly addictive Chilli where you’re not entirely sure what all the ingredients are but somehow that doesn’t matter, it has almost everything you could want in the vicinity of fast food.

    Life in the Six

    August 10, 2019 /

    By  Paul Alex Treadaway, University of Toronto Living in Toronto has been one of the greatest experiences of my life. Its a diverse city with an abundance of culture, food, nightlife, attractions and hidden treasures, but it has also been a second home to me. Because of this, I want to not only talk about what makes life in the Six fantastic for anyone, but also what made Toronto special for me during my time there.

    The Word is Yes.

    January 23, 2019 /

    By  Paul Alex Treadaway, University of Toronto If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my life so far it’s that, most of the time, saying yes is usually a good idea. Do you want some cake? Obviously yes. Are you coming out with us tonight? Yes! I mean what could possibly go wrong? Do you want to go to study and live in Canada for six months? Yes.

First snow in New Jersey, the east coast gets cold and new weather conditions is all part of the new experiences on exchange! - GA Amy ❄ #uom_goabroad #globalambassador I had an incredible time travelling up the east coast of Australia in December with another of the GAs, visiting the Gold Coast up to Magnetic Island. We had the chance to get up close to a Koala, but one leg of the journey was 17 hours by coach! - GA Lily 🇦🇺🐨🦘 #uom_goabroad #globalambassador GA Lily - My trip to Bangkok and Ho Chi Mihn City for my first semester break.
