Windsor Castle

This beautiful palace, which is still the residence of the British monarch during summers, is one of the finest castles I have visited so far.

After spending most of the winter break and christmas working, it was time to celebrate new year in the lake district of England.

Arriving at Cardiff

After landing at Cardiff international airport, which is quite small by the international standards, I was greeted by a very warm Immigration Officer. He asked me some routine questions and went through my CAS letter before approving my entry into the UK. As I was a student, he suggested that I take the bus insteadContinue reading “Arriving at Cardiff”
