hellooo guys this week we are chatting with my st andrews day one, karoline foss, to talk about the art of being a good friend.at uni, your friends really do become your chosen family, especially when you move abroad. they are the people who are there for you when you need them most, and the people you get to be there for in return. so much of your uni experience is shaped by the friendships you make and, more importantly, how you learn to maintain them.but what actually makes a friendship healthy and lasting? how do you show up for the people you love while still making space for yourself? in the words of karo, friendship is an art not a science.come chat with us about being a good friend, growing alongside the people you love, and everything we’ve learned about friendship along the way.#friendship #university #unilife #studentlife #friendshipadvice #healthyfriendships #goodfriends #chosenfamily #studyingabroad #internationalstudent #st andrews #universityofstandrews #collegefriends #friendshiptalk #podcast

In this week's episode, we are chatting about everything I wish I knew before starting my first year at the University of St Andrews. And I mean EVERYTHING — the traditions, fashion, dating (& situationships), friendships, and what life is really like in the bubble.I wish I knew this going into my first year; it would have made the transition into St Andrews a lot smoother, to say the least. Come chat with me for a few!#StAndrews #UniversityLife #FirstYearUni #StAndrewsUniversity #UniTips #TheBubble #StudyAbroad

Before starting your first year of uni, there's this unspoken pressure to completely reinvent yourself, a new aesthetic, a new vibe, a new persona: a full rebrand. I felt it too, right before I started at the University of St Andrews. And I did it, I rebranded. But the thing is, it doesn't work the way you think it will. In this episode, come chat with me about why the pre-uni rebrand is one of the most tempting (and most pointless) things you can do to yourself, what I actually learned from doing it, and why I'm begging you (genuinely, please) not to make the same mistake. Spoiler: it's all surface, no substance.#RebrandTrap #UniAdvice #StAndrews #FirstYearUni #UniversityLife #PersonalGrowth #GlowUpVsGrowUp #UniTok #CollegeAdvice #AuthenticitOverAesthetic #NewEra #RealTalk #UniPrep #StudentLife #DontRebrand

I figured that since this is a golf podcast too, it was finally time to make an episode about what it's like living in the home of golf. It's such a unique and surreal experience. The sport and its history have had such a huge impact on the town, the community, the people, and everyday life in ways you don't really expect until you live here. Come chat with me about what it's actually like to be a student in St Andrews and how living somewhere so iconic shapes the whole uni experience.

My first year studying abroad at a Scottish university tested me in ways I didn't expect and changed me in the best ways, too.This episode is the 5 quotes that got me through it all: anxiety spirals, unexpected drama, and the pressure to have a perfect Instagram life in the most aesthetic town in Scotland.One came from my mom. One came from Pinterest. The others, I couldn't tell you. All of them, I still say to myself.Come chat with me.

Now that first year is officially over and hindsight is 20/20, I wanted to sit down and share some thoughts on how university has shaped my faith over the past nine months. My faith has been such a huge part of my experience at St Andrews, and so many of the lessons I've learned this year have been shaped by it. This is definitely one of the more personal episodes I've recorded, and a conversation I've been wanting to have for a while. I hope you all enjoy.
