My Exchange at The University of Washington I arrived in Seattle about a week before classes started, which I would recommend as it gave me time to get my bearings, figure out public transport, set up a bank account, and do some shopping for food/other stuff I didn’t bring with me on the plane. The…Continue Reading Alex (Sem 2, 2023 + Sem 1, 2024)

My Exchange at The University of Virginia I found out about the 360 International Exchange programme because a couple of my friends had been on an exchange in previous years.

My Exchange at The University of California Irvine (UCI) On December 25th, 2015, I got a present shaped like a brick. Ripping open neon red wrapping paper, I held a complete boxset of the Percy Jackson books. I didn’t really know what they were about, hadn’t really heard of satyrs or cenetaurs or Medusas, but…Continue Reading Anthony (Sem 2, 2023)
