The end of the festival. Birmingham will follow Guildford, and its pavements made of Aberdeen granite, on hosting the festival next year.

One day left. It seems that I only arrived yesterday but yet it is tomorrow that I will leave Guildford.

Another busy day!

Today was a tour day, with one in the morning and one in the afternoon!

Sundays are always good for a walk and that’s what I did. I joined a field trip to the RHS Wisley Gardens with the objective of finding out more about how climate change will affect the English gardens. Well, “will” does not seem to be the appropriate tense for the verb since, according to a gardening expert who was with us, it is already happening.

After crossing a flooded Scotland, I finally arrived at my destination: The University of Surrey in Guildford, England. I was given the keys to my room, met Emma who I was going to share this experience with, and had a cup of tea while chosing the talks I wanted to attend the next day.
