And I’m only speaking exclusively to Americans because I barely know how the rules relate to my own country (hence the pickle I was in), much less how the rules relate to any other country. On September 13, 2016 I moved to […]

Sorry if your field trips as a kid weren’t as life changing as mine. Okay, maybe not life changing, but they may have been what I looked forward to more than anything! Wait, actually I think it was birthday parties, but field trips were a close second… As a kid I clearly remember field trips to […]

Wow! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen myself here writing to you. Meanwhile, I’ve kept quite busy. In my Master’s program, I typically have 2 classes per week which are 3 hours each. That leaves me a lot of free time which I was pretty scared I would waste. Luckily, I have learned […]

I went down to Jolly Old England and played the roll of tourist! Yes, yes, I know. I’m in Scotland so why didn’t I travel about this beautiful country on my free week? Simple, my partner lives in England and this was my chance to officially meet the family and finally visit all those petty places […]

This year’s theme was ‘Shimmer’, featuring disco balls, flashing lights, beautiful music and a giant tree fairy. Tickets […]

Something that never stops amazing me is the unlimited offers we gets as students in Dundee. I’m only staying in Dundee for 12 months, and therefore I’m searching for any opportunity to see the most of Scotland. One of the great advantages of staying in Dundee, is that it is close to everything. This Saturday […]

After a gruelling 17 hour flight which included an aggravating 6-hour layover at Doha, Qatar and an hour long drive from Edinburgh – I finally reached Dundee! The smell of manure and fresh cut fields welcomed me into Dundee as we drove in, a smell so indicative of Scotland’s rich agricultural heritage. Soon after getting […]

Saturday the 31st of August 2013 was the day I made The Big Move- a day which many of you may be experiencing this weekend. I actually don’t remember much from the actual day which is a little sad as it’s probably one of the most important days of my life so far. I do […]

Hello, Scotland! It has been a whirlwind five days since landing at the airport in Edinburgh, chalk full of massive jet lag, slightly manic-styled over-tiredness, errands, errands, and oh! more errands! And a wee bit of playing tourist. It’s easy to get wrapped up in getting our things together, especially for international students having to […]
