"I truly gained a lot at Goldsmiths. First and foremost of course, its famed critical outlook on things and its creative approach to subjects. You will never look at the world the same way after three years of studying social sciences at Goldsmiths! I also very much enjoyed the humility that one is endowed with - there are so many different stories at Goldsmiths, so many people who come from backgrounds where university wasn’t necessarily the “logical choice”, and many crazily talented and creative people, questioning established norms."
