Shrewsbury

“As a History student from a much younger country, it’s been really wonderful getting to immerse myself in such a historic location. It’s kind of mind-blowing that I get to be surrounded by hundreds of years of history just on my way to get groceries every day, it’s been a dream come true to study and live here.”

“I like Shrewsbury because it’s very calm and quiet, I enjoy the natural beauty and tranquillity. I find the people very friendly. Almost every day I go for a walk in the quarry, sit by the river and enjoy the breeze. I like the museum inside the castle and the Harry Potter merchandise store. Shrewsbury gives country vibes, but has all the shopping facilities like cities.“

“As a sports fan, one of my favourite pastimes was watching Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday and Saturdays or taking the train to watch AFC Telford. Other than football, I enjoyed taking a visit on the train to many castles in Wales and just experiencing a side of the UK which is completely different to the Surrey area that I call home.”
