Letter 21

To me, the most important thing is to travel. To experience new places, cultures and people. Almost as important is to become an architect. I feel very lucky to be studying at the University of Edinburgh and one of the reasons is the possibility of an exchange in 3rd year.

There is a choice between Madrid and Copenhagen, and whilst I did have my heart set on Madrid, I do not speak fluent Spanish and this would be an issue. (I am learning though!) So instead I’ve got my sights on the Danish capital: Copenhagen. The more I research this magical city the more excited I become! I would love to have the opportunity to live in a city so different to my home and to travel around the Nordic countries I have yet to visit. I truly believe the only way to really get to know a city or a country is to live there and to be able to study architecture in a completely new culture is my dream.

I am hopeful that this time next year I will be making plans to move to Denmark!
