Jesse Zondervan
Dear readers, I’m Jesse Zondervan, a third year Dutch exchange student at ANU. I’m now retelling my stories from past year, hoping to illustrate real examples of life and study as a science student at ANU.
My Geology degree at Imperial College London and my year at ANU have benefited my understanding of Geology, but also more generally student life, travel and Australian and European cultures.
I hope you’ll find the stories entertaining, inspiring or useful.
