This week we asked our Instagram followers to share what they do when they’re missing home;
here’s what they said…
Getting out and about
“…Visit the Student Living Room”
Have you checked out your Student Living Room in Senate House? It’s the perfect place to sit back, relax and even play a game of Fussball.
“…Meeting up with people who speak the same language as me, or are from my home city”
Come along to our weekly Language Café and improve your skills, learn about other cultures and have fun!
“…Going out to eat”
Some of your favourite places for food included; meatballs at Ikea and Wok to Walk!
‘Me’ time
“…Cuddling up with a tea, hot water bottle and a movie”
“…Taking part in sports to keep my mind busy”
There’s a great range of activities suitable for all abilities; take a look at our B:Active timetable.
“…Listening to music that reminds me of home”
“…Distracting myself by doing things I love – reading, baking and gaming”
Want to read your book in peace? Check out the relaxation spaces on campus. Surround yourself with bean bags, cuddly toys and make yourself at home.
“…Cooking a meal that reminds me of home”
Home comforts
“…Calling or Skype-ing my loved ones”
“…Looking through family photographs”
“…Washing my clothes in the same washing powder my family uses at home, for a familiar scent”
