first-year room tour : wessex lane @ university of southampton

[@DidrickNamtvedt]

Nice tour! I'm Norwegian and I stayed at Wessex Lane during my studies at UoS in the spring of 2015 and I lived in an en-suite room just like yours, identical layout. So many memories coming back just from watching this video, I really loved living there! :)

[@saskiahdlt]

[@leahcheatley6658]

Are the bedside table and desk mounted to the floor?

[@saskiahdlt]

erm, the bedside table definitely wasn't, and i think* i was able to move the desk!

Great vid! Is the university of Southampton multicultural, because its my 1st choice, but I don't want to go and it end up being very isolating. If you wouldn't mind also just telling me about how the uni is in general, from your perspective, that would also be great. Thx

[@saskiahdlt]

I would say it’s multicultural, there are a lot of culture based societies that seem very busy! I don’t know the most about it though. The uni is good just a bit slow at communication sometimes!

[@probably_tired]

[@saskiahdlt]
