It's Monday morning here in Coventry, and I'm quickly checking my emails at an internet cafe before heading to the information fair, where we can learn about banking in the UK, clubs at the university, and more.
I'm here with a few hundred other international students right now- the only students allowed on campus this week. I've yet to meet another American- though I did see someone with a Notre Dame hat yesterday- he had to be an American, right? :-)
Here's what I've learned so far: 1. My name sounds better coming out of the mouths of native French speakers. 2. The food so far has consisted of potatoes, potatoes, and more potatoes! Now, I like them as much as the next person, but I have a feeling I'll be sick of them soon! 3. Starbucks really is everywhere. As are McDonalds, and PizzaHut.
Photos and more details soon! Should have internet through the university starting later today, I hope. :-)
