00:00 How have you found Sheffield since you moved here for the first time?
00:03 Both good and bad things.
00:04 I've really enjoyed it, I think everyone's really friendly, I haven't really met an unhappy Yorkshire or Sheffield person yet.
00:09 So I've really felt welcomed into the Sheffield sort of community, especially coming from so far away.
00:14 So yeah, I really felt welcomed.
00:16 The aspects of the city is quite student-esque, it feels quite safe as a city.
00:22 The bad things, not much, only that there is a lot of hills and a lot of walking uphill, out of breath.
00:30 Other than that, I really enjoyed it here.
00:32 I like that it's cheap in Sheffield and that it's close to the Peak District and the transport's really good.
00:38 So like the trams, the buses, they're all really good.
00:41 Bad things about Sheffield, perhaps West Street at night, you get a bit...
00:49 rowdy, rowdy, rowdy at night.
00:54 Sheffield has been interesting to get used to.
00:59 In many ways it's quieter than Leeds is, but in other ways it's also much noisier and much busier.
01:06 So it's a mixed bag in Tellerwall and you just try to navigate your way through it.
01:10 Sheffield since I've moved here, I really like that it's not a super busy city.
01:17 There's loads to do, but you're not constantly rubbing your shoulders with everybody.
01:21 I also do not like the hills. It's a bit cold, but it is October.
01:26 So yeah, it's just a bit of a trek.
01:30 Wherever you go, it's like you're out of breath, but it's nice.
