French student Chloe Boullard has been enjoying an intern project at CQUniversity Gladstone, investigating the use of cane toads as indicators for the health of the aquatic environment.

Outside her student life, she enjoys walking and running and has explored the Gladstone area, including climbing Mt Larcom.

"The other postgraduates who work with me are also really sympathetic and try to integrate me, so it's a really good ambience even outside my study."
