Meet Cristina, 

Originally from Malaga in Spain 🇪🇸, she was determined to go abroad to the 🇬🇧 UK in Leeds to finish her studies and improve her english, this despite her family not supporting her in this choice. And so, while still studying and living at her parents, having never left home, she took on a loan to make her move happen and enjoy good conditions there without having the stress of making ends meet.

Looking back, five years later, she tells us how the Leeds accent is one of its own, how she wasn’t expecting to feel homesick nor that she would in the end feel home here in Leeds where, after 2 months back in Spain she decided to move here again, and now teached spanish.

Her top recommendations in the city:

☕ Cafés: Fettle https://fettle.uk/ & IF

🌳 Carte blanche: Roundhay parks & Leeds dock

🎤 And her expat song, Let her go by The Passenger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBumgq5yVrA
