I am a third year environmental engineering student and I am currently performing my exchange in environmental sciences in the Sheffield Hallam University in the United Kingdom for the Spring semester of 2015. I have stayed here in Sheffield for the last 4 months and I still have a few weeks left before my time here is up for good.
I have really enjoyed my stay here this far and I have met a lot of new and interesting people, mostly other Erasmus students, but also some Britts, which is nice!
Sheffield as a city is really student-friendly and as a matter of fact, the people living here are really proud of their sense of community and it really comes across in day-to-day life here.
Sheffield is located in the North of England, but the city has good connections to, for example, London, York, Manchester and Cambridge.

I have really enjoyed my stay here in England, and even tea is starting to taste good! I am just glad I still have time to spend here with my friends.
CHEERS!
