    Southampton (population 230,000) is a small coastal city 75 minutes from London. It has a mild climate, beautiful parks, and is a major centre for sailing, shipping and cruise ships (the Titanic sailed from here). It also has two large universities, and therefore a young, lively atmosphere. We think it is the perfect place to study English and have fun!
