On November 17th I took a trip with the International Society up into the highlands of Scotland. It was worth every penny, and it would have been worth every penny if it had been twice the amount. To recap, we traveled with Nory from Heartland Travels (https://www.heartlandtravel.co.uk/) and it was absolutely fantastic. Our nights were […]
So now that we are in early November, it was time for another Singaporean meetup this time organised by the UKSSC (United Kingdom Singaporean Student Council) and supported by our very own Dundee University Singaporean Society (DUSG). The event was a great success and both societies received praises from so many different sources. All of […]
Last year, I wrote a post about my day as a year 1 medical student. And from the looks of it, seems like a lot of you enjoyed it and thank you for stopping me in Ninewells to tell me how informative the post was! That’s why I do this. So, to carry on that […]
It’s always weird moving to a completely new place for even a week. You know what’s even more difficult? Moving to a whole new country on a completely different part of the world! This is my story of moving to Dundee and my first two weeks settling in! Airports have always had a tremendous dramatic effect […]
On my ongoing adventures throughout the UK, my next stop was Edinburgh. I have been to Edinburgh plenty of times before, but my main reason of going was because of the famous Fringe Festival that is currently running. The Fringe Festival is one of the largest arts and cultural festivals in the world that runs […]
Hey guys! It’s been almost 5 months since my last post and yes, I have been given the opportunity to continue writing about my journey in Dundee for another year; which is awesome btw! Ok, to start with a quick update: my exam results came, didn’t do as well as I would have wanted but […]
I’ve spent two years in Dundee now, but I figured I’d take the time to reflect on this one. I’ve come up to Scotland from the very South East of England and in my first year I focused mostly on not feeling too homesick and trying to make it a home away from home. This […]
So far this year we have been blessed with some beautiful weather here in Dundee, so with the semester drawing to a close I’ve highlighted some places you can visit once those all-important exams are over and (hopefully) the sun is shining- after a celebratory drink and catching up on all that sleep, of course! […]
Looming exams? Only a couple of weekends of freedom left before you end up living in the library? A few weeks ago a few fiends and I decided to get out of the city and spend a weekend away in the magical land of Crieff- a small Scottish town just over an hour outside of Dundee, […]
Now that semester 2 has come to an end I thought it would be worth while to see some more of Scotland and have a little break over the weekend before diving head-first into revision. I hopped on the train from Dundee to Edinburgh Waverley, of which the journey is approximately an hour and a half, […]
