OPINION ----- OXFORD

I was in the university city of Oxford for a month studying and it was one of the best experiences I have had. Oxford is a small city about 45 minutes from London by bus. Being a university city, it is full of young people, students, who come from all over the world. The feeling you have when walking through an old medieval city, since all the houses, premises, churches and its famous university have architecture of that style. Several scenes from the Harry Potter film saga were filmed in this city. As a student what I knew best were the pubs I recommend first "The Bridge", big, good music and great diversity of people, although the drinks are a bit expensive. And to have a good and cheap mojito the best is "Club Mojito Night". Oxford is a city that you can visit in one day, but if you really want to get to know it well, you will need much more time. If you have the opportunity, sneak into the university canteens. I say sneak in because you can't enter the university, much less take photos if you're not one of its students.
