Australia was also one of my all time coolest places to go to. I
would love to go back. I thought
Sydney
was amazing, the bridge is really very big and quite scary to walk over,
and hence I did not. I loved the Vineyards in
New South Wales. I also have to admit to
eating Kangaroo, bit like lamb but more chewy. Went to the beach but it was
FAR too cold to get in so my surfing ability is still poor.
Happy travelling.

Places, Global Fashion Industry Interesting Places Visited: One of my best experiences to date has been
having a helicopter ride over the
Grand Canyon. Amazing experience (they even played the superman
theme tune through the pilots tape player- that’s right not an ipod but tape
player). I’ve been to Turkey (Altinkum)
and was amazed by its lack of development considering it is a well known
European country - nice food and I got to practice my dancing! The main
continent I have travelled is North America and I am determined to go to
Africa
and Asia
some time soon.

September 1996, and have been at SVC since September 2002. I love taking
students out of school to do fieldwork, and have taken students to places
like
Borneo (trekking in the rainforest),
California and the West Coast of the USA,
Barcelona, the
French
Alps and the
Netherlands as well as several locations in the UK. I also
love to travel, and have visited places such as the
New

is
Santorini, one of the Greek islands. Santorini is a caldera
volcano which means that much of the volcano now lies beneath the surface of
the water following a massive eruption. The
Corinth Canal is also an impressive place I have visited showing
how human ingenuity has overcome a natural obstacle. This canal has been
carved out of solid rock to provide a waterway to improve communications in
the region.
