All the Chevening Scholars attending the UEA were fetted by the British Council at a Reception at the swanky Devere Arms Hotel in Cambridge on November 19, 2007. It was a good occasion where we met the British Council Staff and other scholars attending Universities in the East of England. Here is a photo of all the UEA scholars. We have people from all over the world, ... Mozambique, Angola, India, China, Tanzania, Columbia, Mexico to name a few... this exerience is really something!!
My Jamaican Chevening crew! We were fetted by the Jamaican High Commissioner in London on December 7,2007. In picture..L-R Anneke, Me, Marcus & Adenikie. Janielle was stuck in Swansea (oops!) and Eddie and Fritz were unavailable. These guys really help me to survive from day to day. And by the way the Jamaican food did taste good too!!.... was great to have some sorrel to drink.
One of the beauties of the UK is the changing of the seasons.... This is the view of the river that runs directly behind my dormitory...To those who I told I saw ducks...they were actually geese! (you can see I am challenged in that department!) See the pictures of the baby goslings.
This is the view directly from my window...notice the tree in Autumn (when I first arrived in September) and the Winter view taken in early December. You will also notice that it is not as sunny. These experiences will stay with me for a lifetime. Look out for the Spring shot!
