You can join the University clubs and go out for a night with them. You'll come home stoned! Don't miss the Shack near Pitt street, and the Garage if you like the disco. Plenty of Pubs will assure you a great hangover espacially the Mollymalone: Live music on friday and saturday. Don't forget to go to a football match at Ibrox, or Celtic Park at Parkhead. Travel to the west coast to the isle of Skye or to the far north to the Orkney islands, you'll discover a great landscape. Easy from the Buchannan bus station.

Glasgow is an amazing music city... concerts are on every day of the week. Check out King Tuts for a great venue or the unions at the uni sometimes have good gigs. Jumpin Jaks on wednesdays, GUU on thursdays, QMU (Cheesy pop) on fridays... Glasgow has a great nightlife and so many pubs to go out for a drink at. Join the international society at the uni and go to the pub The Primary on thursdays to meet all the other exchange students. People are extremely friendly and the prices are low.

Glasgow is full of nice pubs. A student association arranged pub nights for international students every thursday. The same association also arranged a lunch every thursday for international students. Trips in Scotland was also arranged quite often. The university had good sports facilities at the campus;swimming pool,squash,gym,aerobic,step,boxing, circuit training etc several times a day. And all this for only 20 pounds a year! There was also a lot of different students associations, for example the Mountaineering Club, a Diving Club etc.

There are some very good cultural events, concerts, expositions, movies. The Sport building is quite good, there are all kind of equipment there. I like to go to Destiny which is a night club. The Glasgow University Union Club is quite good too. Glasgow has two airports with economic flights through some cities of Europe.

During the time i've been in Glasgow I spent two nights a week out with friends; our preferred bars were in the middle of Glasgow (Buchanan St. mainly) and it was great experience. After few time we decided to enterprise also travels instead of going for bars, perhaps that's my natural way of being
