During my three and a half years studying history at The University of Aberdeen, I have gradually come to feel at home in a place that was at first, nothing short of alien. The university has a beautiful, old campus, full of history- which could only inspire my study of the topic. While the accents are strong, the people are some of the friendliest you will ever meet and it is safe to say you will never feel lonely. It is a beautiful place to be a student and it has been a great experience for me.
