Xu Guangli, a 28-year-old Chinese student at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, commuted weekly from Dezhou, Shandong province, China, to attend a single class for his master's degree in arts management while maintaining his relationship with his girlfriend who returned to China.

Over three months, he made this three-day trip 11 times, starting from August.

Xu's travel routine began at 7 a.m., involved a flight from Jinan, and included stopovers before reaching Melbourne.

His dedication has earned him nearly 10,000 followers on social media, where he detailed his journey costing 6,700 yuan per round trip, despite saving money by staying with a friend in Melbourne.

Xu attributes his efforts to both love and the opportunity to experience China's work culture, important for his future career.

Although the costs surpassed his previous Melbourne rent, he found the experience invaluable for his personal and professional life.

Xu's commitment has garnered admiration online, celebrated for its unique display of dedication.

As Xu completed his studies in October, his remarkable weekly commutes have come to an end.
