What was my first week living in student accommodation really like?

Moving out of your family home and away to uni can be quite a daunting time. You’re changing everything you know and throwing yourself into a completely new situation. But even though it can be hard to navigate, the first week doesn’t need to be awkward or scary!

I spent a lot of the first few days with my flatmates. There was just three of us to start with, so we spent a lot of time getting to know each other. We had a few evenings out in the first week just to help break the ice - we went bowling and for a game of crazy golf!
