Today, October 5, 2021, I want to share a little about my Australian journey and all of my great experiences since I arrived in Sydney in 2019. In the two and a half years that I have been in Australia as a student, I can say that I am having one of the best experiences of my life.

Firstly, during this time I learned many valuable and helpful things for my personal and professional future. Secondly, I am getting to know different people and cultures, and have been able to travel, both within and outside of Australia.

Work while you study

 At the same time, and thanks to the work permit granted by a student visa, I have had the opportunity to work while studying, which has allowed me to do all the things that I mentioned above.

In this context, Australia is a country that offers many job opportunities, and I was able to do all kinds of jobs, from cleaner, traffic controller and waitress in a restaurant, and now, I’m working for a merchandising company.

Currently, at 25 years old, I am also studying a Diploma of Leadership and Management in Sydney and I feel that I still have a lot to live and learn in this country. I am sure that many good things will come and that I will be able to continue enjoying this adventure.

“Take a chance, you won’t regret it”

I must admit that without the help of OzTrip Services, all this would not have been possible. Thanks to the professionalism of its workers, who have given me advice and have resolved all the worries I have had, I feel that I have been able to make good decisions regarding the courses I have studied in Australia.

They have also been by my side in my visa renewals; They have taken care of my profile and of each document that had to be presented for the result to be successful, as it has been until today.

You, who are reading this and whether you have in mind or not to leave your country and look for new opportunities, I just want to tell you to DO IT, do not fear, take a risk because you will not regret it.
