Kinda confusedd!!! The thing is, I love architecture and buildings, but at the same time I love to travel and experience life and have a proper life without stressing myself too much. I wonder if becoming an architect would take that away due to its horrible work-life balance, whereas for UI UX i heard they have a really good work-life balance, and the pay is awesome. I mean, I'm already a bit too late to choose between the two since I got offers from universities for architecture, but I have 1 option (hopefully it goes through) at USYD for a Bachelor of Design in Interaction Design. I mean, if that doesn't go through, would it make sense to do a Bachelor's in architecture or a Bachelor's in design majoring in architecture, and then pivoting to UI UX (HCI) for a master's? I'm hoping to study a master's in the US and work there as well. Please let me know; it would help a lot!!! Like any UI UX designers out there or architects out there, I would love your thoughts on this!

Hi everyone! I'm wondering about the quality of the Bachelor of Design program at the University of Melbourne. I have an offer for Architecture from the University of Hong Kong and plan to pursue a master's degree later in the US or another country like Singapore or the UK. I'm curious if the Melbourne degree is valued as much as the 4-year degree from HKU. The main difference is cost: Melbourne is cheaper thanks to CSP, while HKU would be roughly AUD $15,000-$20,000 more expensive. I probably won't settle in Australia long-term, but lower tuition would be beneficial. I want to know if choosing Melbourne affects the long-term prestige, accreditation, and ROI of the degree. (By the way, my backup plan is UI/UX design, so please share thoughts, this would really help!)

Hey everyone, I'm an 18-year-old preparing to finish school this May. I discovered Worldpackers, and it seems like a really exciting experience. I've always wanted to travel, try new things, and meet new people. Can anyone tell me if the site is trustworthy and how the $109 membership works? I’d appreciate any info so I can convince my parents to let me explore somewhere new. I have a strong passport, making international travel easier without visas, and I prefer affordable destinations. Having to go to Oceania, preferably Australia, is easy for me. I’m aiming for a low-budget trip, staying with a host family or in a dorm, and helping out with work, which I saw on Worldpackers and found really interesting! So lmk!!
