The story

Mine isn't a trip. I'm an Erasmus student at Glamorgan University in Pontypridd (the birthplace of Tom Jones, the singer); I'll be here until May 2007. Wales doesn't have much to offer a tourist. Mainly: meadows, woods, hills, sheep and water…lots of water. The weather here changes every 2 seconds. You have to have with you: a T-shirt, because if the sun comes out it's hot; a wool jumper, if the sun goes in it's cold; a windproof jacket, because the bora of Trieste is a beginner by comparison, and of course…an umbrella.
