A Day in the Life of a Master(s) of Education

Hello out there! When I decided to pursue this postgraduate degree in the UK, I also made a promise to myself that I would travel more. I enjoy travelling and always have. There is so much out there to see and do and experience and I want to achieve it all. Though I've always had the travel bug, travelling means money and time. I know, I know you can travel cheaply especially if you eat little, sleep in shacks and walk as much as possible. Trust me, I've done that, but the thing I was seemed to be lacking was time.
