Cirencester, England •

The best thing about Cirencester (or Corinium) is its history. It was the second largest Roman town and has a bunch of historical sites in the town and surrounding villages.



Antwerp, Belgium • Visit Website »

The best thing about Antwerp are the people and the culture. There's a very eclectic mix of people in Antwerp. They're from different backgrounds and different cultures. And, of course, the fact that it's considered a fashion capital. In the area near the MoMu, or Fashion Museum, you'll find lots of people with an incredible sense of style.



McMinnville, Oregon, USA • Visit Website »

The best thing about living in McMinnville, Oregon or Mac as we like to call it is Historical Downtown McMinnville aka 3rd Street. There is something for everyone downtown.



Reading, England •

The best thing about living in Reading, for me, is that I live in between the town centre and the countryside. This means i can get into town in a half-hour’s bus drive, but I can also cycle into the countryside within about 15 minutes.



Belfast, Northern Ireland •

Belfast is a great blend of history and heritage meeting an influx of modern trends and ways of thinking. In many ways still up and coming, the city has a burgeoning cultural life with pop up shops appearing in which to try new foods or buy beautiful, handmade crafts. A staple of city life is the availability of a pint and a friendly face to share it with - Belfast people love a good 'yarn', especially when it's a chat with a visitor!



Stourbridge, England •

The best thing about living in Stourbridge, is that it's a historic market town, and even though it's a small, it is packed with all kinds of shops to cater for everyone's needs and likes.



Pretoria, South Africa • Visit Website »

Everything is closeby. If you want to go shopping, there are unlimited options. If you want to go clubbing, there are student hotspots such as Hatfield Square which are full of clubs and bars. If you want to spend time in nature, there are national parks and gardens everywhere. I live quite close to the city centre, but not close enough for the noise or anything to affect us. We have an amazing view of the city though, especially at night with all the city lights!



Liverpool, England • Visit Website »

Every corner you turn in Liverpool you will see hints to its history, to its religion and to the continued development of its cultural celebrations.



Skopje, Macedonia • Visit Website »

Skopje is one of the most entertaining and eclectic cities in Europe. It breaths with an interesting mix of ancient history with a modern vibe to it. It is quite unique and will make a strong imprint on any traveler. You don’t want to miss experiencing it!



Portland, Oregon •

The best thing about living in Portland is the quirky culture. People are friendly and helpful and appreciate good design and great food. Plus, it's a well-kept secret that the summers here are fantastic, and the rainy winters really aren't that bad.
