When most people find out that I am from New York, they ask me why I gave up the ‘Big Apple’ for Aberdeen.
I tell them how I love the way Aberdeen can give you that big city feel and at the same time it is small enough for you to often bump into friends in town. I am studying Politics and International Relations and I like the fact that I am getting a totally different perspective on the world around me.
I also like that there is a diverse course structure for my degree, where else could you take a class on the International Politics of Space!
