Regent's Business School London

Before coming to London I had studied at a British School in Colombia, reason why my overall level of the language was very good. Clearly after having lived and studied here for 2 years my level has improved considerably, ut more in terms of vocabulary than of being at ease with the language. Nevertheless, as I have had the opportunity to interact greatly with Italians I have managed to learn Italian and can now carry on a conversation almost fluently in Italian and understand almost everything when they speak to each other.

Having an international student ID usually gives you discounts on travelling, cinemas, and different shows. Besides these, it is just a matter of searching for cheap food, cheap discos or bars, but always expext it to be expensive anyways.

Living abroad is an enriching and wonderful experience, just the fact of being in a different country and being able to meet people from differnt parts of the worls I personally find fascinating. I consider it is very important to try to open up to people and culture and absorb as much as possible when abroad. After I graduated from High School I went to live in france for a year, basically to study frenc and travel, it was a magnificent experience, one which gave me self-confidence, language knowledge, as well as developed my easyness to interact with people from other parts of the world. London has been a different opportunity as I have been here studying university, nevertheless it has been fantastic. Word of advide: Whenever you go abroad try to travel as much as you can, meet new places everythime you have the chance and try to absorb all that is around you, people, places as well as the air itself. The knowledge you gain by being away from home is immesurable and something no one can take away from you.

London is an amazing city to live in, you have everything for eveyone, no matter what you like or where you come from. Being Colombian my favourite night out partying spots would be Down MExico way and Salsa Bar, both Latin American Discos where to dance Latin Music. In terms of going out for a drink I have a frined who is the manager of a pub, so for obvious reasons that almost always ends up being the place to go, if not then there is the O'Bar which I like a lot. Going out for a 'different' coffee, definately worth going to Momo's, just of Regent's Street, it has an incredible environment and setting.

I haven't seen the on campus accomodation, the only thing is that I consider it to be too expensive in comparison with off campus accomodation.
