Scottish Living

So I will be attending Abertay University in Dundee, Scotland for the next few years. I have never even been to Great Britain before, anything I should prepare for in particular? I have been to Ireland before for context though.

Welcome to Scotland - hope it goes well. My band played live in the Westport Bar in Dundee once. It's tough to understand the garbled language here; I don't know what half the people are on about myself, and I've been here my whole life. Maybe you'll get to see a Dundee derby where the visiting team players walk down to street to get to the away ground. Did you know that Dundee United have a 100% record against Barcelona?

I've never been to Scotland, so I'm not really any help. Maybe you could start eating haggis? I mainly just wanted to say congrats! Sounds like an awesome opportunity. Wish I would have studied abroad when I was younger.

Well done. Dundee is a nice friendly place, although a little hilly, you'll certainly stay fit!

I have indeed heard quite good things about Edinburgh from folks who've been there, I don't doubt I'll visit it a few times while I'm in Dundee
