factores a tener en cuenta al venir a Edimburgo:
* académicos: ¡estudias y apruebas! El sistema británico de educación es mucho más flexible.
* personales: mejoras tu inglés y conoces a gente interesante de todas las partes del mundo.
* clima: hace menos frío que en Burgos y lo de la lluvia es un mito; ni tanto ni tan a menudo.
* precios: salvo alojamiento y transporte, es todo igual o más barato que en España.
* Edimburgo: una de las ciudades más bonitas de Europa, y hasta ¡hay una playa de verdad!
* de fiesta: se puede salir todos los días y a precios más asequibles que en España.
* moda: ¡las escocesas van casi desnudas y nosotros podemos llevar falda!Ruben Marina Cenzano, MEng Year 5 [email protected]
