Hi Guys!! My name is Desirée and I am currently a 3rd year student studying International Relations and Spanish in the UK. This channel is mainly to document my travels and my year studying abroad in Madrid. I am currently an exchange student at the Universidad de Alcalá en Alcalá de Henares. If you have any questions about life in Spain/ studying abroad at Alcalá, just send me a message on Insta!

Moving to Spain post Brexit and during a pandemic was not easy at all, so I’ve made this video to try and explain the process a bit better.

One thing I forgot to mention is that for your NIE/TIE appointment they rarely speak English so either brush up on your Spanish skills or get somebody to help you.
