Working & Learning at the University of Edinburgh – Student Ambassador, Geologist, Red Lichtie

The blog covers my life at the University of Edinburgh as a geology student, Student Ambassador and as a resident presiding in the Athens of the North. If you want to learn about the amazing geology of Scotland or explore the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde nature of the city, this is the space to chart! I cover poetry, geology seminars, field trips, university life, tourism in Edinburgh and everything Scottish.

The Topic Idea

Geology might bring into the legitimacy of the nation states into question. As it makes us understand that nothing is permanent even humanity. This makes our bedrock thinking move onto shifting sands, as we become unsure about how the reality of nature, relates to our reality.
