"One of the best parts about living in Mexico City was all of the food. I was never hungry with street food on every street and so many new meals to try with friends." 🌮🇲🇽🌯

McMaster University is one of our Canadian exchange partners, based in Hamilton, Otario! Founded in 1887, McMaster is home to more than 33,000 students! 🇨🇦🍁

"I loved the size and how busy Mexico City was but it was also nice to travel during my weekends and holidays to see nature. During my exchange I swam in cenotes, hiked around a volcano, watched the monarch butterfly migration, and visited waterfalls." 🌋🦋🇲🇽

"This is from the castles of Wales trip that University of Liverpool arranged for the exchange students. I would definitely recommend these trips because they are places that are difficult to reach with public transport alone and it's also a great opportunity to meet the other people on exchange." 🏰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

"Being a student in Mexico got me free access to so many amazing museums and historical sites. I was able to visit some pyramids across Mexico and learn so much about Mexican history." 🇲🇽❤

"Attending the football and basketball games while on exchange at UC Berkeley was a great experience. Even though we didn’t know all the rules as exchange students we supported together with the student body - wearing blue and gold and chanting ‘Go Bears!’" 🐻🏉🇺🇸

Student exchange is a fantastic opportunity for parents to come and visit, and resulted in the consumption of far too many pastel de natas 🇵🇹🌏

Copenhagen is one of our most popular destinations in Europe for exchange students! Here are some photos from a BSc student who pursed his final trimester at the University of Copenhagen 🇩🇰💐

"At least one day-trip to the Yorkshire Dales national park has to be on your to-do list if you're studying at the University of Leeds. Easily accessed through the train system in the UK, a huge number of amazing walks and sights such as Jubilee Cave and Malham Cove are within a couple of hours of Leeds. It's a great place to explore with your friends and take a well-deserved break during stressful university periods (even better if you're lucky enough to get good weather!)." 🇬🇧🥾

"Princess Park is one of my favourite parks in Liverpool. Just a 30 minute walk from campus it's got a lake with lots of wildlife and places to sit, super nice for a walk and picnic when the suns out." 🧺🐿

"Peña de Bernal (the Cliffs of Bernal), the huge Mesoamerican pyramids of Teotihuacan, lucha libre Mexican wrestling, the beautiful streets of San Miguel de Allende, and the insanely huge Mexico City - all a stone’s throw away from my home while on exchange in Mexico." 🇲🇽🌏❤️
