Tips and Trip to Cambridge, UK

What comes to your mind when we talk about Cambridge?

A place which surrounded with universities, Cambridge English, or?

Wondering how Cambridge got its name?

A bridge was built over the River Cam named as Cam-bridge.

A name as simple as this and it's famous enough to amaze you!

Basically, i'm staying at Sheffield which takes roughly about 2 hours+ to reach Cambridge by bus. The most concern topic is always related to budget. It only takes £12 for the transport fees from SHU. Prepare your own lunch box because picnic in Cambridge with your friends is the most precious moment you  will enjoy! That's the only expenses if you are not planning to buy anything here. Sounds cool?
