I really enjoyed my short time at the University of Oxford, particularly my department (Oxford Internet Institute), college (Wolfson) and the city as a whole. As you might expect it is very hard work but was also very rewarding. The people I met there were on the whole interesting, fun and remarkably normal. Aside from that, I wasn’t particularly enamoured with the administration and customs (read: navigating the collegiate system, wearing a suit and tie to take an exam, Latin at ‘matriculation’ etc) but it was tolerable and probably a bonus if you like that sort of thing.
