Oh awesome! Which do you prefer, Bristol or Cardiff? :smile:

They're quite different cities to be honest, Cardiff is definitely laid out so everything is much more central whereas Bristol is quite spread out. Cardiff is a lot flatter than Bristol to get around! However, I love them both and picking my favourite would be difficult. I've loved my years in Cardiff so far and it is a beautiful place so Cardiff would win for me atm!
Cardiff is a lot cheaper than Bristol to live in too. My rent this year for example is £280 (without bills) which is about £150 less than it would be in Bristol! Cost of living is one of the lowest in the UK tpo which you notice in bars, pubs and clubs. I can easily have a great night with £25 in Cardiff whereas in Bristol you'd probably struggle!
Both are lovely places to live though!
