From sipping champagne punting along the River Cam by day, to glamorous black tie events by night - for the most privileged students at Cambridge University, this is just an average week.

And now, an American undergraduate studying history of art at the prestigious British University, is sharing her experience of the aristocratic traditions in a new book.

New York-born Caroline Calloway, 23, has racked up nearly 300,000 followers on Instagram and regularly blogs about the 'bizarre but wonderful' culture of Cambridge.

Thanks to her cult following, the brunette student is now writing a book going behind the scenes at Britain's most prestigious university.

Thrusting herself into university life, Caroline has enjoyed a succession of May Balls, formal dinners, and weekend escapades to rival university Oxford.

She has even dined in the famous private members-only 'Pitt Club', which the likes of HRH Prince Albert Victor and actor Eddie Redmayne have been members.

Speaking about her University experience, she said: 'I love Cambridge so much, in the evangelical way only an immigrant can.

'In the States we don't have castles - it's literally like if one part of one old building in Cambridge was transplanted to America it would be our greatest national treasure.

'I just love everything here, it's so different and alien to everything I grew up on, I want to share it with everyone.

'The rules are so funny and bizarre and it's just incredible to imagine the history that people have been studying here for hundreds and hundreds of years.

'I feel like I'm in Harry Potter, turning up for dinner in the grand hall in my robes and having beautiful three course meals. I'm still getting used to which way to lean when they serve you.

'I can't tell you the amount of times I've had to Google etiquette. Not because I necessarily want to change to be British but more because I don't want to horribly embarrass myself or be rude to the host.

'It's been a steep learning curve but so much fun. The British just have so many forks but I love all the history.'

Keeping her lips firmly sealed on any secret clubs, she said: 'I have been really adopted by British friends and I have been lucky enough to be invited hunting and to the Pitt Club.

'It was pretty amazing - they have a picture of Eddie Redmayne in the toilets. It is like most things Cambridge: bizarre and beautiful, full of boys in tweed.'

A mature student, 23-year-old Caroline is currently undergoing her second year at St Edmund's College studying history of art.

After leaving Phillips Exeter Academy boarding school in New Hampshire five years ago, she became a full-time New York blogger before deciding to further her studies in the UK last year.

Now, when she isn't attending tutorials and lectures, Caroline is writing her Cambridge tales alongside her pictures, in what she describes as a 'new kind of memoir'.

The student blogs about her life with friends on campus and documents twee weekends spent with them in the country.

Caroline gives readers a glimpse into the life of students behind the exclusive college walls - drinking on the college lawns, revising on the 'backs of Kings', attending garden parties and dancing at May Balls.

And she marvels at events like Trinity College's 'Court Run' in the Autumn, a race where students down copious amounts of port before attempting to run around the square before the grand clock strikes twelve.

At times baffled by quirky Brits, Caroline admits there are elements of our aristocratic traditions that wouldn't wash in all-American New York City.

America does a lot of things well: hot dogs, obesity and fun - but we don't do glamour like the Brits

She said: 'The Brits are so different from the Americans - I'm sure they think I'm crazy but unlike New Yorkers they are too polite to tell you.

'American college students like to drink shots at Frat parties but here they like to drink three types of wine at dinner.

'I got my room by chance but in the States they would find the fact that sometimes they assign rooms on test scores baffling - the idea that you get a better room based on grade just wouldn't happen in New York.

'Only certain people of a certain status can walk on the lawns - I think if I didn't write my blog or take photographs, my American friends just wouldn't believe that these things happen.

'It's archaic and almost medieval sometimes. I do think it's snobby, and slightly ridiculous but in an incredibly endearing British way and I find the old traditions just mesmerising.'

Caroline jokes that she came to study in England to avoid the 'math' requirement set on college applications in the States.

But when she isn't attending lectures in beautiful 'castle-like buildings', Caroline makes sure her social calendar is full to the brim, and she is currently working hard to blow off steam after exams and essays for the notorious 'May Week' - a week of parties and balls after the exam period at the end of the academic year.

Caroline says life at Cambridge is 'just a totally different type of glamour' adding: 'it is another world'

'May Week is such an amazing week, everyone was already talking about it when I arrived in October, so I was worried it wouldn't live up to the hype,' she said.

'But then May Week came and it was fabulous. I had to sell a kidney to pay for all the balls,' she joked, 'but it was totally worth it.'

She continued: 'Tickets vary from £90 going all the way up to £250 for certain balls, which are white tie and only happen every three years.

'I don't think Americans even really know what white tie is. I certainly didn't when I first came here. It's just a totally different type of glamour, it is another world.

'America does a lot of things well: hot dogs, obesity and fun - but we don't do glamour like the Brits.

'I went to Trinity Ball last year. It is held in the most stunning setting, the girls all look beautiful and the men look like they're from a BBC period drama.'

Caroline is currently in the process of writing her book, a collection of funny essays and pictures about her escapades, which will be released in 2016

Lifting the lid on working hard and playing hard, Caroline told how her and college friends have broken into garden parties and even accidentally stole a punt overnight.

She added: 'Summer in Cambridge is magical. After exams, students punt to a nearby village called Grantchester where the picnics range from bucolic and stress-reducing to rowdy and Prosecco-fuelled.

'Last term, when we accidentally stole a punt, we ended up getting horribly drunk and abandoning ship.

'The next morning we got up early and hungover to return it before anybody noticed it was missing.'

Other anecdotes include the evening she and her boyfriend got trapped in the Palace of Versailles overnight and when she was featured in Hounds magazine because of her 'rather inappropriate hunting attire'.

But her absolute favourite thing about Cambridge? The British accent. 'I definitely grew up with the Hollywood tropes of the American girl who meets the dashing Hugh Grant boy,' she gushed.

'I want to clarify that I am not one of those tragically old-fashioned girls who goes to college only to find a husband. I love my degree, period. But I'm not complaining about all the dashing British accents.
