Hristo Yanev, Bulgaria
MA Tourism Business Administration

My initial impressions of Birmingham were very positive, the city was not as industrial as I thought it was going to be, there are lots of cultural opportunities such as theatre, dance, music and much more to offer. The city is very multi-cultural and there are actually lots of Bulgarians living here.
