Re: 1.3 Getting to know you

by Frederick Parker -
Hi, my name is Freya. I'm starting the BA Politics and Sociology course. I'm from England, but I spent the last three years in Spain due to economic circumstances. I've lived in two main areas in my life, Somerset and a place called the Costa Del Sol in Spain. Somerset is renowned for the production of cider whereas Costa Del Sol is very much a 'party destination' for tourists with lots of clubs.

Hello! My name is Zach, and I will be studying the BA in Philosophy & Theology. I’m from London, so probably the most urban district of the country, and I’m very much looking forward to getting the hybrid of both the city and beautiful countryside in Exeter. Most of you will probably know lots about London, as it’s the capital, but to try and throw a fun fact in…London is technically classed as a forest! It has over 8 million trees, making it the world's largest urban forest, according to the UN.

Hi, 

My name is Megan, I'm 28 and originally from Warwickshire, also known as Shakespeare's county. I'm lucky I was able to grow up down the road from Stratford Upon Avon and be able to explore when I had the time.

I am returning to University to get my BA in History (special interest in the Early Modern Period - Tudors, James VI/I and the Witch Trials).

I already have my degree in Psychology however this has gone relatively unused and I spent the last 6 years working my way up in a corporate career, before realising that I didn't not find this fulfilling anymore.

I am looking forward to getting started later this month!

Hello, my name is Daniel Jillings. I am profoundly Deaf, and British Sign Language (BSL) is my native language. I will be studying BA History at Exeter for three years! I am from Lowestoft, which is a small town in Suffolk. Interestingly, Lowestoft is the most easterly town in Britain, so I will be travelling for over six hours to Devon. The Darkness, one of my favourite bands, is from Lowestoft, and Justin Hawkins (lead singer) went to a school near my home. Benjamin Britten was also from Lowestoft, but I prefer rock/metal music. Lowestoft was recorded in the Domesday Book, commissioned by William the Conqueror, but it was a much smaller settlement back then! The closest city to Lowestoft is Norwich, but other towns nearby are Great Yarmouth and Southwold. The beach is a special part of Lowestoft, and we used to have an air show there (I remember when a Harrier crashed into the sea).

Hey, I'm Alma studying LLB Law. I have lived all over the place, but currently reside in California's Bay Area. SF's fog is caused due to a phenomenon called upwelling. The combination of cold waters being brought up from the pacific hitting the warm air creates an environment which guarantees that whatever weather is in SF, the complete opposite is happening through the rest of the bay.

Hi, I am Ariel. I am starting the MA in Internationl Film Business course this year! I'm from Hong Kong, and it's the first time for me to study abroad so preparing for this coming year has been quite exciting and scary for me. Hong Kong is such a small city but we have over 7 million people living here so it is ALWAYS crowded with people, even if you go hiking in the mountains. Also it has been super hot here this summer, so I really look forward to the cool weather in Exeter. I am glad to e-meet all of you!
