I have to admit that in the beginning, I wasn’t that excited about going to Nottingham. I had initially applied to a different Global Short Program program which was cancelled, and the Photography and Heritage subject at Nottingham Trent was the next best thing.

When I first mentioned my upcoming travels to Nottingham for a Photography short course, I was met with blank faces or the occasional conflation of Notting Hill with Nottingham.

If you are considering doing a global short program, I urge you, do it! I can’t promise a completely glamorous experience by any means. I missed a connecting flight, and after hours of stressed emails and rebooking travel, I somehow stumbled off the 4-hour bus ride into the streets of Nottingham at midnight. I managed…

Over the July Break, I escaped the cold to begin my 4-week Global Short Program in Granada, Spain in order to improve my (lack of) Spanish. Many friends had travelled to Granada, so I’d heard lots of wonderful things from the incredible Islamic influenced architecture to the late-night tapas adventures, I was more than excited.…
