Make Friends From Near And Far!
To travel is to live
-Hans Christian Andersen
Who hasn’t had the feeling of wanting to travel the world? Of wanting to be far away, getting to know a different country and exchanging points of view? “Fernweh” is what Germans call it – “Distance-ache”. For many foreign Students here at Stirling University this dream of living in a new place has come true; they are studying abroad and living in a new and beautiful country: Scotland. And most of them are eager to discover everything this beautiful country has to offer.
The International Society here at the University of Stirling allows it’s members – international students, as well as UK students – to travel throughout the country and explore Scotland more easily, as well as get to know and learn from each other, exchange opinions and build friendships, that bridge nationalities and origins.
Join us for events and trips that will allow you to take full advantage of your stay in Stirling and Scotland as a whole! Enjoy price reductions for these trips as a member of the international society and have a great time with like-minded people your age!
