  • Favorite Thing: Experiment - Just let yourself get in to the way of life. In Glasgow you will see a cross section of everyday life, from wealthy people to ones that don't have a lot but are still incredibly cheery. If you are perhaps a bit nervous and worried that you might get involved in something that could cause a problem then stay in the city centre, if you feel a bit more adventurous venture along to the 'barras area especially on a Saturday or Sunday. Glasgow has a host of upmarket shops in the Italian Centre, it also has a few big shopping malls that again offer you shops of every type. There is also the West End of Glasgow with it's ultra cosmipolitan Byres Road, some nice shops, excellent cafes in little lanes and within easy distance of the city centre. Don't forget the three universities, the numerous art galleries and museums, the fantastic sports stadiums and amazing restaurants.

    Fondest Memory: I sometimes criticise Glasgow when I am here, but only because I take it all for granted. Glasgow has everything that most other European cities has, the attractions, the people and even some of the illegal things !!!
