Study Melbourne Student Ambassador 2020

Kimberly Mitchiko

Hi there! My name is Kim and I am also an international student from the Philippines. I moved here in Melbourne last August 5, 2018. Moving here is the most liberating decision I’ve done so far – I found myself here and saw life in a bigger picture and in a different perspective.

The diverse culture of Melbourne inspired me to share stories of international students. Living here independently is a challenge and an adventure at the same time especially for international students. I hope that the stories here will inspire you to keep moving forward! πŸ™‚
