00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:05,670
Hello. My name is Malak. I'm Spanish, I'm second year modern languages student.
2
00:00:05,970 --> 00:00:11,300
I choose È«Ãñ²ÊƱ because I was looking for a university who match my vibes,
3
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:16,620
match everything I was looking for and definitely È«Ãñ²ÊƱ was the right decision.
4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:22,639
The coolest part of my course so far has been meeting new people, learning about new skills that I didn't
5
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:30,450
know I had. Joining societies, be able to make friends and live in my comfort zone as well.
6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:37,950
What I like about this subject is challenge to my own mind. I really like to develop new skills that I didn't know I had.
7
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:43,350
My favourite thing about Bangor is that it's really small, so you know everyone, you feel safe.
8
00:00:43,620 --> 00:00:47,070
You can go to the street and meet your friends easily.
9
00:00:47,340 --> 00:00:51,270
You don't need to worry about your safety. Bangor is that small.
10
00:00:51,270 --> 00:00:55,860
That can be really, really safe. And it's also a really beautiful city.
11
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:01,739
You've got so Snowdonia, you've got È«Ãñ²ÊƱ, you've got societies.
12
00:01:01,740 --> 00:01:06,240
You got scenic view. So È«Ãñ²ÊƱ will be always the right choice.

00:00:00,030 --> 00:00:04,020
Hi, my name is Eliza. I'm from Las Vegas. I'm a second year language student.
2
00:00:04,140 --> 00:00:10,200
I choose È«Ãñ²ÊƱ because it is a beautiful place and it's a very good international university.
3
00:00:10,590 --> 00:00:17,610
It was on plenty of like the international websites that I looked at, and I was really interested in the language department they had to offer.
4
00:00:17,730 --> 00:00:20,940
The coolest part of my course was meeting all the new people.
5
00:00:20,940 --> 00:00:26,729
I've lived in the States for so long, and coming out and meeting all these people from like Spain,
6
00:00:26,730 --> 00:00:30,150
Nigeria, all these different places was quite amazing.
7
00:00:30,150 --> 00:00:37,620
And that course really gave me an opportunity to communicate with them and have something in common with them.
8
00:00:37,830 --> 00:00:43,649
I enjoy learning new languages. I like going on the street and I'll hear someone speak Italian.
9
00:00:43,650 --> 00:00:45,690
I'm like, oh, I know what they're saying.
10
00:00:45,900 --> 00:00:52,889
And I think that's just an amazing thing because bilingual people have so many advantages in the world and trilingual people.
11
00:00:52,890 --> 00:00:58,530
That'll be me eventually. But they have so many opportunities and I wanted to be a part of that community.
12
00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:01,229
My favourite thing about Bangor is how small it is.
13
00:01:01,230 --> 00:01:08,459
It may seem like not that good of a thing, but I like walking down the street and seeing all my friends like I see at least five people I know.
14
00:01:08,460 --> 00:01:11,670
I say hi, have conversations. It's just a small city.
15
00:01:11,670 --> 00:01:19,200
It's it's not as overwhelming as going to like Manchester, Liverpool and I got to know the city really well.
16
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:25,230
And I do love living here because it made my transition from the States to the UK very easy.
17
00:01:25,230 --> 00:01:27,809
My piece of advice would be to get yourself out there.
18
00:01:27,810 --> 00:01:33,719
I wouldn't have made any friends if I just stay locked up in my room like I got into societies, I made friends,
19
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:39,960
I know people, I go out, I have fun because I made those friends and I made that effort to get out of my room.
