Oxford University

The city has a really nice feel to it, and with all the green areas it’s so pretty and you almost feel like you’re not in the city at all.
I want to go back :)

If you can, go punting along the river. It’s gorgeous. And the swans are amazing…

It’s loads emptier in the summer, but when I visited for research I expected rain rain and more rain, but in the 7 weeks I stayed, it only rained twice.

Definitely check out the Shakespeare plays they put on during the summer!

here i am, a grad student at oxford university. the intensity of it all is amazing – in terms of studying, social life, partying… it’s great. exhausting but great.

I stayed at Brasenose College, Oxford University for the summer in 2005. I loved it there. I really don’t think that people who live there appreciate how beautiful the entire town is, but, to a girl from a country town in the US, I was blown away!
