I have been in Sydney, Australia for a week now and have already had some amazing experiences. The first day I did a walking tour of Sydney and was able to see the iconic Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge as well as learn about the history of Australia. Another day, I returned to the Sydney Opera House for a tour inside the building. Some other cool things I have done so far, are to go to the Blue Mountains where I got to see the Three Sisters which is a famous rock formation, to go to both Manly and Bondi Beach, and to go to Featherdale Wildlife Park where I got to feed kangaroos. I have also had the opportunity to visit many different companies here in Australia. The companies I have seen so far include: the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the US Consulate, Salesforce, and Australian Technology Park Innovations. I am looking forward to visiting more companies and seeing more of Australia!
