How much do you know about Australian food? Is it difficult for international students to cook?

After arriving in Australia, many foreign students will choose to cook by themselves because they are not used to western food, but cooking is not easy. There are still many delicious foods in Australia. Next, I will introduce Australian food to you. How difficult is it for international students to cook?

First, let's look at the difficulty of cooking.

1. It's not easy to cook by yourself.

Some international students say that it is not easy to cook by yourself. First of all, the living environment is not allowed. Xiao Huang, a China student studying at Macquarie University, said that international students usually share a house. First of all, there is basically a requirement in the advertisements for renting houses to recruit clean and quiet people.

Therefore, there are very few opportunities to cook, and one or two dishes are often cooked repeatedly, which makes it boring after eating for a long time. In addition, it takes an hour or two to buy ingredients, wash and cook, and clean up afterwards. In this case, it's too much trouble to cook, so it's better to eat out.

Skipping breakfast, coping with lunch and eating dinner late is a common state, and this eating state is closely related to the law of work and rest. Sometimes I will make up my homework papers or participate in some campus community activities. 12 pm and 1 pm are common things to sleep.
