Hi everyone! My name is Sara, I'm 19 years old and I come from a little town in northern Italy. Today I would like to tell you something about my experience in the UK. I have always been an undecided person and when I finished my high school in Italy in summer 2019 earning a diploma in "tourist reception" I didn't know what to do in my life. I have always wanted to go to study at the University but also to improve my English as it is very important in today's world of work.

Hello! My name is Amelie Margout, I’m 20 years old and an international student from Germany. I came to the UK in September 2017 and started my studies at Bournemouth University and am now in my third and final year studying towards my undergraduate degree.

Ciao a tutti! Mi chiamo Alessia, ho 18 anni e in questo blog vorrei parlarmi della mia esperienza in UK. La mia permanenza qui a Bournemouth è stata resa possibile dal progetto Welcome+ al quale ho potuto aderire dopo aver superato un test selettivo. Sono arrivata in città il 14/07/2018 e sono stata accolta da un'host family che è da subito diventata la mia seconda famiglia. Uno degli aspetti più positivi di quest'esperienza è sicuramente il mio internship presso Student Work

I’m that girl that wants everything. I’m sure you know someone just like me or are one yourself! The main reason I came to the UK was to follow my gut and get a degree in what interested me. I’m not the first nor the last person to leave everything I know and go to study in a foreign country.. In my home country of Latvia, they dont offer that many subjects to study, so i knew that choosing to move to the UK would give me more options. I decided to go to Bournemouth Universit

I cannot blame them for this decision but I think that if a student decides to start an English course is because
