Winter is truly here.

It started snowing a few weeks ago and has been going pretty solidly since. Everything is white and it has changed the character of the place. It's a black and white world now :)

At UNIS everything is getting busier. There is not a lot of continuous assessment throughout the semester, for each module we have (had) to do an ungraded group report and presentation and a term project consisting of practical work, a report and a presentation.Of course the practical work is only now starting to come to an end so all the writing has to happen at the same time!

The days are getting shorter too but this doesn't mean you can't go outside, especially on clear nights when the moon is full it is still really nice up on the glaciers.
