Blogs about international students

This week I have done a research on the web about blogs with the same thematic as ours.
First of all, I've found a blog written by an ex-student of the Universidad de Navarra: Alejandro Egea Alfaro, from Costa Rica. I had an interview via facebook with the blog's author (Alejandro). His firt idea was to create a blog where he could write about his experiences in the international exchanges he has done. He started his blog when he travelled to Hong Kong because he knew it would be a very different experience. He uploaded photos and videos where we can see his new discoveries. While he was in China he took pictures about things that where very different from the occidental world, we can see the contrasts. There are also pictures of the time that he spent in Atlanta.

I've also found a blog about a student who has recently travelled to Wales and he is writting about his experiences in this country. His name is Diego Peña. By the way he has writen about his residence in Wales and about his daily life there.

This is a blog about students from all around the world who study in RWU (Roger Williams University)university in the USA. Different students give their opinion about different aspect in life away from their hometown. They also give the reasons why they have chosen RW University.

This blog gives information about the university. Students give in it their opinion about different aspects as accommodation, grants,etc... There are also sections where you can read students experiences, the steps to follow to study in a different country or information about festival and other leisure activities.
