Today is the day I head up to Manchester to watch my beloved Manchester United tackle Liverpool FC in the Europa League. This is just to show there is a little bit of fun and games going on at the same time as studying. There are many opportunities to relax and see what the UK has to offer!
Having worked in kitchens for quite some time and always pushed the health aspect on to my colleagues, it was always going to be an interesting placement for me. The role the inspection officers play is important in my eyes and I felt I could make a difference. As I always say “I could make a difference in one kitchen, or an entire city”.

My study abroad journey continues…

I will be completing subjects in politics, policy writing, environmental sustainability and an internship all of which contribute to my degree in Public Health.
