Last weekend my boyfriend and I decided to take a trip to the Birmingham Christmas Markets. After spending a lot of the Christmas season last year in Germany, I managed to visit quite a few of the markets, including Frankfurt, Strasbourg and of course, Heidelberg. Living in Heidelberg did mean that I started to get […]

Spending a year together in the beautiful city of Heidelberg, they kept my feelings of homesickness at bay and made my year abroad full of fabulous days making exceptional memories.

During my time at the language course last year in Germany, I met a lovely group of Canadians, specifically from Newfoundland and Labrador. After a few FaceTime calls and ample group chat messages, two of the girls had arranged to come over this way to see my neck of the woods. I met them in […]

I have discovered that not every student in the Biological Sciences department is aware of an opportunity to spend a year abroad as part of their undergraduate degree. In fact, it wasn’t until second year that I even realised myself. Obviously I knew it was possible to study abroad, but I wasn’t interested in taking […]
