We’re closing up on April, and the end of my Dundee-exchange is just around the corner (okay, it’s still 4 months away, but time flies. After getting this great idea from Courtney (read her post here) I decided to take a look at my year so far. January 9.-16. After a lovely Christmas back […]
… find yourself a sunny weekend, some good friends and a car. This weekend, I finally got to experience some of Scotland’s most beautiful places. I had some friends visiting from home, so we decided to rent a car for a couple of days and drive to a some of the must see-places here north. […]
Hi there! In freshers week last September, I met different representatives for volunteer centers in Dundee at the Campus Green outside of DUSA. Right away I felt like I wouldn’t have the time for volunteer work this year and told myself I would get back to it later. As we know time flies, I felt […]
How to sit in and study when the weather is as nice as it’s been lately? No idea. Can’t do it. A friend and I decided to take our bikes (thanks Martin) and go exploring in the areas around Dundee. After a quick look at the map we decided on Arbroath just about 19 miles […]
Hi there! I’ve had a few friends visiting from back home this last week and I was so pleased to see that the sun greeted them for a couple of days while they were here.

Long time no see! Since last post I’ve been back in snowy Norway and also been on this amazing trip to Morocco with the surf club (if you’re looking for a sport club to join, I just want to mention that they go every year and hello – it’s surfing). Anyway, as soon as I […]
It might seem as if I’m done with my exams and have Christmas break. On the contrary, I have one of my exams in 1 hour – and another one on Tuesday. But Christmas break is not far away, and I just went through some of my photos, thinking that I would miss Dundee and […]
To all of you out there still day-dreaming about Christmas break… It’s exam period, you (I) forget how it’s like to have a life, you (I) update my home address to ’University Library’ and you (I) can’t find any valid reason for paying someone to let me do exams. You (I) look through out Facebook-news […]
Hi there! Yesterday was a great day to be an exchange student at University of Dundee. As mentioned in an earlier post, one of the perks of being in Dundee, is that it’s close to everything. Christmas does something to me, and so far I’ve been to four Christmas markets in November. First one in […]
