enjoy Sydney. Elizabeth has worked in the international education industry
for over 15 years and brings a wealth of experience and care to our clients.
Elizabeth has traveled
extensively throughout Asia, including living in China and Taiwan for 5 years.
Some of the other countries she has visited many times include Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore,
Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as visiting Brazil, UK and France. She has
stayed in homestay situations herself in some of these countries so feels that
she can ‘place herself’ into the shoes of most visitors to Australia for the
first time. |
