I enjoyed the fact that although my accommodation was not on campus, it was still very central and in short walking distance to everything important; such as town, the University and the train station.

This accommodation feels like it has a closely knit community of people, all from different backgrounds, that are all happy to hang out and have fun together. Moving countries is a daunting experience, but my time at St David’s and the friends I made here during my first year, have made this major change in my life a bit easier.
