Türkiye 🇹🇷 After a very full on term, starting new programmes, building new partnerships and enjoying every minute, I’m now really embracing some chill time in stunning Side, Manavgat. Fabulous day at the ancient harbour, lovely food and a stunning cocktail or two

Visited the beautiful @StirUni today with a group from @Lornshill. Significantly changed since my graduation in 2006, and great to help the young people broaden their horizons! Seeing a lecture theatre, atrium and library 📚 gave some interesting perspective #KeepThePromise
