This morning we had orientation with many other international students. There were a large number of Americans but I met a lovely German girl. There are many events held through the orientation week and one of those is a trip to Victor Harbor on Thursday.
This is the time of the year when there are many whales, seals and koala's off of the bluff.
This is the cathedral next to my college. It is a nice landmark that can be seen from anywhere in the city in case I get lost.
Wednesday night is international student pub night where we meet all of the other students that are living at the college (230 of them) and have a good time. It will be intense.
Fun fact: Koala's eat primarily eucalyptus leaves which has phenolic and terpene compounds that are powerful natural disinfectants and can be toxic. Their liver breaks down the toxins and they have huge hindguts in order to absorb as many nutrients as they can. They know what to eat by smelling the phenolic toxins.
Koala.
