Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities, Nightlife: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
Oxford Street has plenty of amazing clubs with the latest house music and the cafes in Sydney are unbeatable. Just walk down oxford street, visit Betsy's Soup Kitchen, Tiny Box (Thai Food), or the Stone Wall for individuals with a truly open mind. Home was a really nice club located on Darling Harbour. There is so much to do. You won't be bored. Also if planning to travel make sure you don't miss Cape Tribulation and the Daintree Rainforest.

Darling Harbour was always a great place to go to for a night out, as well as George Street in the CBD. I lived at Coogee Beach so my favorite local spot was the Coogee Bay Hotel. The Mardi Gras parade down Oxford Street is a must see in March. Sydney offers so many great cafes and Thai restaurants, Coogee Bay Road had a great selection as well as the main streetw in Glebe and Newtown. The markets in Sydney on the weekends are also fantastic. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Sydney has a wealth of night spots in all areas of the city. Thursday night is Uni night around most places and is very big for students. My personal favorite bar to go before going out later at night would be Bar Ace on the corner of Liverpool and George Streets. This bar offers a very moderately priced happy hour between 5 and 11PM every night. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

In Coogee you cannot miss the Coogee bay hotel (where you can eat a wonderful barbeque cooked by yourself! and have a drink listening nice music) and the Palace (a pub on the beach, once a week you had the chance not to pay for your drink! 'toss the boss' is called: you play with a coin- head or tail- and hope to have good luck!) This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Amazing resturants in Bondi. Thai food was amazing. Depending on your mood, go out in Darling Harbor and the Rocks for upscale nightlife, local bars, Bondi, for laid back evenings. Oxford Street is also a great deal of fun. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

We lived in Coogee (one of the beach-y suburbs) and there are great cafes there... go to Globe. But the best night life is in Darling Harbour and Kings Cross. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
