I started my travel to Dundee at 12am, because our bus from London got delayed. Finally, we arrived at 10am. My first impressions of Dundee: 1) It reminds me of Rostock, a small town in the north of Germany near the sea. 2) The people of Dundee are very nice :)
When I stood on the road and tried to find my way to university by map, a woman helped me without asking. After her explanation, I found the way immediately. By the way, I probably looked and smelled horrible after 2 days without washing and shaving, so thankfully she didn't run away ;)
After reaching the university with my complete luggage (2 heavy suitcases and 1 backpack) by foot, I got my keys for my flat. Everyone here was friendly too, so I already felt like home ^^
A nice woman of the Students Association explained me many things about Dundee and the way of living here. She also answered my questions with ease :) And I got much free stuff from her like a USB stick, a ball pen, hot coffee and a little jar of orange marmalade which Dundee is famous for.
Finally, I got to my apartment. Despite being a flat for 2 persons, I was alone. So I could use it all for myself ^^ After a shower and preparing my bed, I started the day by going to the next supermarket. Luckily this is a store of Lidl, a chain in which I bought frequently during my time as student in Leipzig :) Surprised me that it's even famous here :D
My first meal was fried egg and ... it got burned :(
Well, despite feeling awake, my sense of time needs to be restored the next days :D
By the way, until next Tuesday, I don't have internet oO Good I brought DVDs and games with me :)
