Living History: Mireia Crispin

My defining moment at Trinity

There is one thing at Trinity, a recurring moment, that I have always found magical: the walk across Great Court, after dinner, on wintry nights when the sky is clear. Great Court is a privileged spot for urban stargazing: wide, open, quiet. The lights from the college buildings are reddish and dim, so they are not too distracting — in fact, they make the scene even more special. Students and Fellows leave hall, often in small groups, chatting after a long day and a pleasant meal. I like to stand for a few seconds by the fountain and look up, before continuing on to my room in Blue Boar Court.

I thought it was a very personal moment. But just after deciding that this would be the experience I would share, I happily discovered, thanks to this Living Histories project, that it is in fact something that other Fellows enjoy doing as well. Trinity brings us together in many unexpected ways, and that is what makes it such a unique place.
