Hello, friends! If you had any questions about the University of Edinburgh experience, I'll try my best to answer! :)

Thanks Shawna - lots of memories in this video. I remember as a kid being in The Meadows when the university's main library was being built in the mid-60s and they had a dump truck on the roof for a while. It was an unusual sight for sure. You walked past what was the "Simpson Memorial Maternity Pavilion" which is where I was born. You also passed through Gifford Park where my father grew up in the 1920s. Even though I emigrated to Canada in the early 70s, I know that part of the city like the back of my hand!

Always thoroughly enjoy your lovely videos Shawna. I know they’re a lot of work - 👍 I studied law at Old College and, although I still live here, there were quite a few places I’d forgotten about which were nice to be reminded of. I really hope you’ll keep going with your videos. They’re really charming & authentic, which is getting harder & harder to find on youtube - you’re a diamond. Best wishes, David 🙏😀

That was such a lovely video Shawna! I knew it would be when I saw you were taking a trip down memory lane. Everything looked so nice and so pretty. You should totally do an encore video when Teviot Row House is done with its construction. Take care!

Thanks so much for watching, Patrick! Funnily enough, Ashleigh and I were saying the same thing, that we’ll have to redo our tour when it’s reopened 😊

Nice trip down memory lane for you there. Weirdly I think the first of your KZfaq videos I ever watched was your university room tour!

No way! Haha thanks for sticking around since then 😊

Some lovely old buildings and then there is the library which looks like an Eastern European prison. Nice wee trip down memory lane for you and Ashley, thanks for sharing.

Absolutely! Haha Edinburgh university has some of the loveliest (and ugliest) buildings in the city 😂 thanks for watching!

Loved this video, Shawna. I was definitely getting Hogwarts vibes from the beautiful stone buildings. I am fairly new to your channel but I love your content, it's really refreshing and charming. My one question would be, were your uni rooms well heated? Living in Australia I think I would find the weather in Scotland rather challenging.

Hello 👋🏼 It’s so lovely to have you here, thanks for watching! Good question.. my room in Holland House (Pollok Halls) had gas central heating (I think) but it only came on at certain times of the day so I would be slightly chilly in winter if I wanted to study in my room. I think I bought an electric blanket too. My room at Unite Chalmers Street had electric heating and you could have it on as much as you like but it made the room quite dry 😅

@@triptisharma5121 aww I’m so sorry you’ve been so busy. I hope you settle in well to your new job and the move goes well though! Thanks for watching and I’m glad it was a moment for you to pause 🥰

Too intrigued by that 1 second of Soderberg treat footage! What did you end up getting? .)

Hahah it was the tiniest chocolate cookie 🙊 I wasn’t very hungry but since my friend was getting something, I didn’t want to feel left out 😂

This is really awesome, and educational for me, since this is my future university. ^.^ I likely won’t be starting any classes any sooner than late next year, but this made me even more excited for it! Thank you so much for this!

I’m so glad the video was useful!! That’s hugely exciting, congratulations 🥳 wishing you all the best with your studies!

@@ShawnaLaw Thank you very much! I’m a marine biologist, so going from studying here in the US to over there will be an amazing experience! As will working with a new ecosystem of marine life!
