Dimithra

Bangor University

Zoology

Hi, I’m Dimithra Dayaratne, an undergraduate student studying Zoology with Conservation. I grew up in the little island of Sri Lanka. My goal in life is to become a chief sustainability officer of a company, as I am passionate in environmental management. I’d like to do my part in contributing to the conservation of our planet from a corporate perspective. I know the struggles some of you guys might face. Leaving your friends and family probably for the first time, trying to fit in with your peers, or things like setting up your new bank account. International students in particular might struggle with some aspects like the culture shock or having no relatives in the country. I strive to ensure that everyone has a smooth and easy transition to their new chapter in life.

Lithmi

University of Aberdeen

Medicine MBChB

Hi! I'm Lithmi and I’m currently a final year medical student. If you’re a school leaver and starting Medicine right after graduating school it can be quite challenging, so feel free to bombard me with any questions about the big shift! I’ve also travelled over 8000km to be in Aberdeen so if you’re wanting to know about the experience of settling into a new city far away from home, about the course, or even just living in Aberdeen, I’m here to answer any questions you have!
Looking forward to helping you out!
