    Prague in Winter: The Best Things to See and Do

    February 9, 2026 /

    By Miranda Dreisin (Universität Leipzig, Germany) One of the best things about living in Central Europe is how easy it is to travel – often on a whim, and usually without much hassle. Last month, I planned myself a very last minute weekend trip to Prague, which is only around 3 hours drive from Leipzig, Germany where I am currently studying.

    Western Australia Road-trip Rundown

    March 29, 2023 /

    by Lauren Tennant, University of New South Wales, Australia As most my previous posts have emphasised, a work-fun balance is so important to get the most out of your year abroad.
