Hi there, my name is Carolin, 30, and I will be moving from Munich, Germany (where they have the famous Oktoberfest) to Edinburgh to study Applied Psychology at Heriot-Watt University.
I will move in September but be looking for a 1-bedroom apartment at the end of July (in case anyone is planning to move out of theirs ;)) and therefore be over for one week.
I would love to meet some people and make new friend.
In my free time I like going to the cinema, exploring pubs and restaurants and photography.
I would love to hear from you guy for meeting up, tips or just a 'hello' :)
Cheers,
Carolin
