Studying in South Australia
To sum up South Australia in one word: serenity. In this calm Australian state, Adelaide is the capital (and only) city. While SA is considered a semi-arid state, when you land in Adelaide you wouldn’t have any idea you’re surrounded by desert.
The city is built with serenity in mind, and is considered one of the most well-planned and happy cities in the world. Despite its smaller population, Adelaide is home to international students from over 150 countries. In terms of lifestyle and attractions, Adelaide is as wholesome as it gets. Here you’ll find the largest fresh produce market in the southern hemisphere (The Central Market), beautiful vineyards and stunning landscapes. This city also houses more restaurants than any other major city in Australia.
