      Hey, thanks for the question! Studying abroad was something I really wanted to do, but I was still a bit nervous at the beginning. I remember trying to pack my whole life away into one 25kg suitcase (lots of weighing on a bathroom scales and trying to decide what can be left behind/maybe sent to me later), and arriving at Edinburgh Waverly for the first time. I got settled into university quite quickly though, and I have made some great friends in my halls of residence who massively helped and made the experience so much easier. I had moments when I missed home, but for the majority I was super excited to live abroad, enjoy the culture, make friends from different parts of the world and explore Edinburgh!
