When I arrived on Monday the 17 of September I didn't meet any of my flatmates, it took me a day and a half to see someone in the kitchen. I didn't really mind because that day and a half gave me the opportunity to be a real tourist and explore my new campus and village. The first one I met was Ryan. He looked a bit dazzled when he suddenly saw me cooking in the kitchen and he thought I was french but it worked out eventually. He lives right across from me and he is from Scotland. I don't know about you guys but I secretly have a crush on Gerard Butler ever since P.S.: I love you came out and the main reason I have a crush on him is because of his super sexy scottish accent.
That night he asked me whether I wanted to come with him to this kitchen party and after that to whetherspoons. I immediately said yes. I had so much fun that night, I met so many people from different places in the UK. I mean there were girls and boys from Canterburry, Essex, Basildon,... The funny thing was that even though everyone came from different cities and even countries we all knew the game 'Never have I ever' (Ik heb nog nooit).
Since that first night I got to know people from Sweden, Finland, Spain, Germany, France, Brasil, you name a country and it will be represented at the University of Greenwich. There are almost 5,000 international student at the uni, pretty amazing isn't it? You know what's even more amazing, everyone gets along with each other, respects each other and is really hospitable. I mean I'm here for only two weeks now and I already got invited by Ryan's sister to have dinner at her home after seeing her once. 9 went wednesday and when I walked into their appartement She immediately gave me a hug and a kiss and showed me the entire flat because they just moved in. t really touched me because they really make you feel as if you are a part of something here.
