9/12 Robertson's Close
University of Edinburgh 2000-01
Welcome to our website! The five of us who lived in Robertson's Close are all international students who were thrown together by fate (and a little bit of luck!). We come from all over...France (Aline), Spain (Isa), Italy (Mary), Greece (Despoina), and the United States (Rachel). We've had some of the best times in our year in Scotland and we wanted to share some of our pictures and stories with you! Enjoy your visit!
