I hate shouting over music too. I love the Universities in the UK- they all look Harry Potter-esque to me! My sister went to St. Andrews and when I taught in the US she would FaceTime with my class as she walked around campus. They loved it!Courtney {Alkeks Abroad}https://www.blogger.com/profile/15272137936391016164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-18957660579380456302015-09-15T23:09:20.810-07:002015-09-15T23:09:20.810-07:00I really wish I got over to Scotland while in Euro...I really wish I got over to Scotland while in Europe! It’s one destination I just couldn’t find the time to make it to. Oh well! There’s an excuse to go back soon!

Things you'll learn from blogs are endless! If the adventure involved in search of a curry is to go through those places, I would search for one myself. <br /><br />By the way, in the Philippines - they're all gearing up for Christmas as early as now. As soon as the BER months come, Christmas songs are played on the radio. We skip Halloween for some reason. :pPinay Flying Highhttp://pinayflyinghigh.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-85821199673303443452015-09-12T03:28:42.349-07:002015-09-12T03:28:42.349-07:00We have a friend from Glasgow who totally raves ab...We have a friend from Glasgow who totally raves about the curries.
