England or Australia?

[OneBadassCat]

Sup guys. So I'll have the opportunity to study abroad next semester and the dead line to apply is soon approaching. I'm basically stuck between these two countries. I'd really like to see both of these places. In England I'd go to Kingston University(really close to London), and in Australia I'd go to Wollongong University in New South Whales.

I'd love to see London and they SAY the transportation is excellent to go all over the UK. I've got family in Ireland too. So I find it appealing that I could go to other places as well. Plus there are pubs and night life etc..

As for Australia, it's fuging Australia. The campus looks really beautiful and there would be lots of poo to do there as well. I was told that Wollongong is very outdoorsy.

So I hope it's not a stretch ask for advice on here but I think we have some Australians and English folk here too. So if anyone has been to these schools or has experience studying abroad tell me whats up

For me, it would be England hands down. The chance to be able to experience a soccer game live would be amazing.

But of course you are talking about going to school, so that probably doesn't help.

no doubt in my mind, 100% Australia

Really can't go wrong with either. Australia has great weather, sun, surf, partying etc...

England has pubs, loose women, and ease of travel.

Remember with England, you also get easy access to the rest of europe.

Austrialia

Down under. Rememer, if you go during our winter, it will be summer there. Much better than summer in England or winter in England.

For a long term like that I'd pick England.

i bicycled part of the coast of australia last year... started in sydney headed for melbourne, passed through wollongong on the way. the weather was over 110 degrees fahrenheit (hottest summer in 70 years, i've never been accused of being a master of timing) so i decided to stay a few days and cool off my sunburn. and i can tell you firsthand wollongong is the poo.

ten minutes west and you're in the middle of the mountains and deserted australian bush. half an hour north you're in sydney. two hours northwest and you're in the middle of the desolate wollemi wilderness. two hours south and you're in lush australian wine and cattle country. half a day north by train and you're on the great barrier reef, which basically is like an episode of LOST. half a day west and you're in the middle of one of the largest, most desolate spaces on earth - australian desert.

england is splendid but australia offers adventure and an allur unparalleled by most countries. go. you won't regret it.
