Welcome all to my first blog post. I am Tharshika, currently studying Medicine at Griffith University. I can hear you all gasp – just kidding! I am one of the Gold Coast Mayor’s International Student Ambassadors (representing Sri Lanka) organised by Study Gold Coast. Born in Sri Lanka, raised in Dubai, moved to the Gold Coast, lived in a Greek household and always surrounded by Indians, Arabs and Aussies, I am lucky to be experiencing this globalised world. Moving to the Gold Coast and studying at Griffith University has opened up a world of possibilities for me. I joined the International Student Ambassador (ISA) program in 2015 so I could showcase the wonderful city of Gold Coast and the limitless avenues for work and tourism to my friends and families worldwide.
