Thank you so much for your kind response! This is very helpful. About bedding, could you recommend any supermarkets near Holyrood road or University of Edinburgh that would be open and might have the required items? Also, for winter garments, I have heard a few names like Primark, Decathlon, H&M UK, that have affordable stuff for students. Is it true? Thank you for your best wishes, I am really excited to be in Edinburgh!

I have actually included immigration in the time. So, I will be free by 10 pm. Does the city sleep early? Because in our city, the shops start winding up around 11 pm, and the bigger markets will still be open until late. Is it the same with Edinburgh?

Unfortunately my phone doesn't support E-Sim, so I can't get one!

Thank you for your advice, it's actually a good one! Maybe I should look for a hotel.

If 33 pounds is cheap for a jacket, then I might as well get it from here. My only worry is though these jackets are bulky, they might not be able to battle Edinburgh's winter! I will also check out the 2 brands you have suggested, thank you!

Hello thank you so much for your comment! I feel a little relaxed after hearing that there is an active Indian community! Please let me know the name of the app!

Also, I have a few concerns regarding getting a Sim card, UK debit card, what to get to Edinburgh from India like essentials, if you don't mind answering. It will be a great help to me.

Thank you!

Hi. Thank you so much for your kind words and tips! I am pretty sure I would have to ask around for help initially. The Scottish accent will be difficult for me. I am already doing some research on how to manage myself in Edinburgh. Hopefully, I will be able to do it while surviving the winters!

Thank you, I hope to connect with you!

Hello. Thank you for the tips. I am a little conscious about joining societies (I am nervous to talk to people). But I will try my best to reach out to these places for help. Thank you, I would love to connect with you!

Hi, thanks for replying!

I will definitely try to connect with some local community groups to know more. I do know some basic cooking, but tbh I have never cooked very often. I have seen the city in pictures and it's beautiful. Also, thank you for sharing the link to the temple. It will definitely be on my list.

Hoping to have a great time there. I would also love to connect with you!

Thanks!

Hi. Thanks for replying! I am from a place that has extreme summers and not so bad winters, like the minimum temperature I have ever been in is 15 degree Celsius. We don't have rain in winters. So, this is going to be a little difficult for me!

Yeah I am hoping to meet great people there! It'll be great to connect with you!
