Overall, my experience thus far at the University of Melbourne has been a mix of joy, delight and slight disappointment! The campus itself is definitely a sight for sore eyes, lots of open spaces and majestic architecture; new and old. Students are spoiled for choice with study areas and quaint cafe spots around campus. Not to mention the central location of the university which makes it too easy to go for a nice outing with friends after a long uni day. The reasons for my slight disappointment? The food options on campus are not student-friendly in terms of wallet damage…so beware! On the bright side, it encourages me to pack my own lunch…which i guess turns it into an advantage? Either way, prepare to blow some serious cash if you decide to grab a meal and drink on campus!
