Aberdeen
Located in the north east of Scotland, Aberdeen is a cosmopolitan & connected place – with people working and studying from across the world.
It is a city where ships dock right up against the city-centre streets. Where urban dolphins leap at the harbour mouth. Where locals paddle-board and surf off the city beach. And golden sands stretch for miles – towards vast dunes to the north and high cliffs to the south.
This city is perfect for the adventurous. The rivers Dee and Don meet the sea here, bringing crystal clear waters from the Cairngorm mountains and make Aberdeen a great base to explore the wilderness of the Cairngorm National park (the largest in the UK). Popular pastimes include world class mountain biking, kayaking, fishing, paddleboarding and even Munro-bagging.
Birmingham

There's so much going on – with buzzy street markets, a huge selection of mouth-watering restaurants, as well as sports and entertainment venues galore, there really is something for everyone. The city celebrates its down to earth approach and is a welcoming home to visitors both new and old
Bristol
Bristol is the city of bridges, balloons, boats, bikes, Brunel and Banksy. It is a vibrant, diverse & innovative university city with its own unmistakable identity, carved out by a strong artistic streak, rich maritime history and passionate locals.

This is very visible from the eclectic mix of buildings lining the streets and the abundance of nationally important heritage sites.

Enjoy Bristol’s famous nightlife, year-round festivals, independent cinemas and the many galleries showcasing the work of both classic and cutting-edge artists.

At the heart of this spectacular city is Cambridge University with it’s 31 distinct, architecturally stunning colleges.

With its unique combination of skyscrapers, seafront, parkland, vibrant nightlife, and beautiful historical architecture, there’s an awful lot to love about Liverpool.
The former seaport is famous for many things: its friendly people, world-class football teams, distinctive local accent, famous musicians, epic warehouse parties, and much more.
