I spent a week sitting in a room listening to a man and learning about dialogue. I have learnt so much in a single week in a city I am determined I will call home one day. Jonathan Miles, my tutor, was fantastic and a fascinating man in his own right. When ever I got … More My Week in Oxford (All the important bits)

Packed my bag and an hour and half bus ride to Oxford. The driver was lovely and put my jumbo suitcase in the back. Got a little sneak peak at the English countryside and I have to say that I like it. It’s got the rolling hills of Adelaide but greener and more trees, it … More Day seven – Oxford

Although it … More Day Two – My New Home Country
