Liisa and Bree
Liisa is wrapping up her first year in the English midlands at the University of Nottingham where she is pursuing a MSci degree in International Relations & Global Issues.

For some reason I was really hesitant at first, but I am loving it now and could not imagine having said no to the chance of sharing my experiences and thoughts of the world with such a mature group of international students”!

Liisa says she has always wanted to go to Istanbul and has had “several planned trips cancelled during the very last minute due to the sometimes turmoil state of the city.” We will keep our fingers crossed that doesn’t happen this time. We can’t wait to hear about Istanbul!
