Explanation and intro (Boxing Day)

So for anyone who doesn't know my girlfriend (Binita probably called bini in these blogs) and I are going a six month exchange to Leeds University. Leeds university starts it's semester 2 officially on the 22nd of January 2018 however Bini and I will be doing a two week holiday prior to this date starting in London then visiting, Stockholm, Abisko National Park, Copenhagen, Berlin, Ghent and London a second time. We are required in Leeds on the 18th of Jan to move into our accommodation (called Lupton Residence) and do other uni things like buy pens. I'm planning to do a daily blog while travelling and a few blogs here and there while in Leeds.

Accommodation:
Our accommodation in Leeds is a four person, self catered flat where four people share the same kitchen and Bathroom but everyone has their own rooms. Sadly we are not in the same flat but at least we are in the same area.

Funds:
Where funds are concerned the University of Adelaide has provided each of us with a $2000 grant and a $6568 loan which is added to our HEX loan. The rest will comes from our own saving. :)
