Moving to the UK to study at the University of Liverpool has been one of the greatest experiences of my entire life. Being able to live in another country and experience the culture is so different than just travelling through Europe on a vacation.

From my experience here, I think the best thing about Liverpool is the people who live here. Everyone is so friendly and easy going. They are always so helpful and willing to give you a hand if you are having a tough time.

I’ve been able to meet so many international students through my exchange and it’s so interesting to hear differing outlooks on everyday life. Living with six other international students in university accommodation means that I’m consistently exposed to different cultures, languages and perspectives.

At my home university, I study biochemistry and microbiology but coming to the University of Liverpool, I chose to take electives in many different subject areas. It’s been so great to study different modules and I would definitely recommend branching out on exchange if you have a chance to.
