Parbhat: Alone at The Gap

Parbhat came to Australia to study, work and build a better future. By August 2024, he was alone in Albany — living in his car, far from home, and carrying pressures few people around him fully understood. Last seen at The Gap, his story raises powerful questions about isolation, expectation, and the hidden struggles many international students face in Australia.
