In this episode, I share a glimpse into my first year studying medicine at the University of Leeds, a year filled with discovery, inspiration, and a growing appreciation for the city’s unique rhythm. I’m joined by Professor Moe Oo, Head of the Leeds MBChB Programme and consultant in geriatrics, who offers fascinating insights into his career in medicine, the evolving landscape of medical education, and what it means to guide the next generation of doctors.

Beyond campus, this episode explores the vibrant spirit of Leeds through two standout local ventures. At Sips, the city’s tiniest matcha stand, students and locals gather for their daily dose of calm and caffeine. Just a short walk away, Taco Bite, nestled by the Trinity Shopping Centre, serves up authentic flavours and a taste of global culture that captures the energy of the city’s streets.

This most recent episode paints a portrait of Leeds that’s become my daily life, and I enjoy sharing this adventure with you all!
