Guide to the University of Glasgow

I stumbled upon this video while searching random videos about Glasgow, and thought it would be worth sharing.  I think its a pretty good guide/introduction to the University of Glasgow, and a bit of the surrounding area.  Yes, I am kind of cheating by using this.  Enjoy!




Sidenote:  While you're preparing to go abroad, it can be a good (or at least, just fun) idea to search on youtube for the country or city that you'll be visiting.  It can help you get an idea about where you're going and what you can expect, and it's also just exciting to know that you're going to be seeing those places soon.  Also, one cool thing is to go on imdb.com and find out what movies have been filmed in the place that you're going, and then watch them, if you can.  However, just be aware that even though a movie may be filmed in a certain place, doesn't mean that the film is depicting that place.  For example, the movie 'Dear Frankie' had parts of it filmed in Glasgow (great movie, by the way).  But the movie itself doesn't take place in the actual city of Glasgow, but in a smaller town kind of nearby-ish.

   That's all for now!
