Reasons to love Cardiff

Art, culture, sport, entertainment, outstanding scenery – Cardiff offers more than just a place to study, it’s also a great place to live.

What I enjoyed most about my studies, without a shadow of a doubt, was the ability to study partly through the Welsh language. I enjoyed taking every opportunity offered to me to engage and study in Welsh.
