Hi everyone!!

I’m am a 23f moving to Galveston this coming weekend for school. I’ve never been on my own and have never really explored the island, so I was hoping some locals could give me some recommendations on activities or restaurants to try!

I’m really into scenic stuff (bird watching, being by the water, etc), physical activities (hiking, yoga and Pilates), and mind soothing activities (pottery, painting, music, puzzles, reading).

As far as taste in food, I don’t really like seafood 😭 but I’m open to trying anything!

Hopefully I can find some recommendations or even better…some mutuals! :)

Hey guys!!
I got accepted to UTMB SON for the fall 2026 semester and was wondering if any current (or previous) UTMB students have anything they’d recommend as far as preparation, supplies, housing, or on places to study! I’m the first in my family to pursue nursing and I am moving to the island so I would appreciate any advice!
