Should I go to Australia for study abroad?


Should I go to Australia for study abroad?
My school has this policy where we have to take a semester abroad. I really want to go to Argentina or Uraguay but I keep hearing horror stories about students getting abducted in South America. SO, I have been thinking about Australia, I would be going somewhere on the coast. Which is better in Australia, the West or East coast ???

Wow, you really don't know anything about Australia do you. The west coast is pretty much uninhabited, except for the state capital: Perth. Everything else, I mean everything else, is on the east coast.
2 :
Yes by all means go to Australia. I would love to go there and go camping, but not surfing with those sharks. They won't let anyone kidnap you there. They like to fight. : ) And I'd like to have a barbie with some of the locals.

Haha east coast for sure, Most of the large cities are around there. Australia is such an amazing place, Last christmas holidays I spend 4weeks staying in a town called nagambie with my Godmother just out of melbourne, one of the most beautiful relaxing places I've ever been. Or you could also try NZ, the countries rather similar but from what Ive seen its ALOT less racist than australia it was one of the big things i noticed when I went there.

Studying abroad will be one of the greatest experiences you have. Honestly, before I went abroad I had no interest. I quickly discovered my love for traveling. With regard to Argentina- any city or country you visit is going to have safety warnings. I would not write off Argentina so quickly. Visit the US Department of State's website for safety information (http://bit.ly/oY5BZ) on particular countries. I write for a new travel/study abroad website called Gulliver (http://www.gullivergo.com). The site is dedicated to helping people study overseas. Interested in Argentina? Check out these programs (http://bit.ly/xyb8x). Or check out these programs in Australia (http://bit.ly/FGmMr). Where you go also depends on what area of study you want to pursue. When you decide where you want to go, check out our Prepare to Go section (http://www.gullivergo.com/prepare-to-go) to learn about funding, housing, internet, and other tidbits for your trip. Good luck and Happy travels!

Is it a bad idea to be a foreign exchange student in a country whose language you dont speak!?


Is it a bad idea to be a foreign exchange student in a country whose language you dont speak!?
I REALLY want to do a foreign exchange thing next year but I can't decide where! I thought I would to go England for a semester but my friend told me that they are paid to host kids so sometimes they just do it for the money and you aren't really welcome. I am hosting a boy from Italy right now and he said I should go to Italy because I love the country. I speak NO Italian though!!!! And then I thought Argentina might be super cool too but once again I DONT SPEAK SPANISH! Is it a really bad idea to go to a country for a year and speak none of the language but get language lessons there and learn it along the course of a school year!?

1. Some programs--completely and utterly regardless of in what country--will pay a stipend to the family for hosting. Not all programs in England will do this, it depends on the program and how they arrange things. Even if they don't pay there is always still a chance you could land with an incompatible family. 2. It is not a bad idea to do a foreign exchange in a country where you cannot understand the language DEPENDING on the type of person you are. For some people, it is a very bad idea. You have to realize that when you study abroad in a foreign country where you do not know the language you essentially become "disabled." You are mute for you cannot speak the language, you are deaf for you cannot understand the language, and you are blind because you cannot read the language. You become completely dependent on those around you, and even after a year you will still not have total mastery of the language. And for some it is not possible to handle this problem and handle it well, particularly people from countries such as America where self-support and independence is highly valued and encouraged, and you end up pitiable when you find yourself completely dependent on those around you. So you have to really understand yourself before you do this. Do you think you can get by in life losing the three most important parts of yourself? It will be a while before you will become able to express yourself to a degree adequate enough to yourself, and only then if you try very hard to do this and actively seek out learning. If you don't think you can take this, there are other countries than just England and the US that speak English. There is also Australia, Ireland, or Canada.

How it would work in most of the English-speaking world is this: You would ask, they would say no. And that's it. Nothing more. No harm in asking. (Provided, of course, that you're just asking, and not harassing or threatening.) I don't know if Argentina has the same sort of privacy laws that exist here; if they don't, then the school might just give you the information you're looking for, if they have it. Though I admit I know virtually nothing about the Argentinean legal regime, I really can't imagine there being any sort of criminal law against asking a question of that sort.

In most Southern and Central American countries it is really easy to get information on someone. Most people often lie as to how they are related and get information that way and others pay them say ten bucks per say and get an answer that way. As to it being illegal to ask information I dont think thats the case, even if it was the law enforcement is not advance people committ many crimes and get away with it in those countries. Even then the law enforcement is corrupt too... usually all they want is money from you and theyll let you go. I would try finding this individual on poplular websites (ex. myspace, facebook, hi5....etc) since you know his name, youll be suprised how many people you find that way. Best of Luck!
