How students can streamline transient lifestyles and take care of valuables in Kent
Half-term came just a little bit too early for students in Kent this year it would seem. With the weather in the UK just about as unpredictable as ever, we have been volleyed backwards and forwards between cold weather and …well…even colder weather. In fact, the last week has been reported to have seen temperatures as low as -10 degrees centigrade. Ouch. A little bit too cool.
To add insult to injury, we are now promised that the next week, when colleges, universities and schools re-open, that temperatures are going to the opposite extreme and reach highs that are normally only experienced in the Mediterranean.
Warm down south…
We expect the weather to be slightly warmer down here in wonderful rustic Kentish places such as Canterbury, Faversham and Herne Bay and the like but for students who have to prepare themselves for a pretty transient life anyway most of the time, things can get a bit frustrating.
My student days are a haze now as I look back. I probably enjoyed myself too much and learned too little. But it was slightly different back then in the sixties (I am at the age now when forgetfulness goes with the territory). You didn’t tend to travel so much (because communications were not so good) and you didn’t have so many valuables – these were the days the summer of love (pretty flowers are all we need!) and long before the times of ultra-disposable possessions and gadgets.
So, for the student in the 21st century who wants to take advantage of the wonderful stuff around them, travel while they have the chance, visit their home of origin during half-term and generally enjoy the life of an intellectual tumbleweed, you need a great deal of foresight and need to do a good deal of planning beforehand.
Self-storage in Kent to the rescue
Self-storage is one of those services which has risen up over the last 10 years and makes the problem of keeping your valuables safe while travelling from place to place an absolute doddle.
Need A Space is a self-storage facility based in Canterbury which offers storage for students. Now you can leave your valuables in a secure place at highly competitive prices while you are away from college and visiting the family or tripping the high seas.
