Being born and raised in Venezuela, I’ve always wanted to see snow and the beauty of snowflakes. When one of my brothers was choosing a university, he chose the University of Calgary, so as a family we all came to see the city. I fell in llove with Calgary at once, even though there was no snow.

When I first stepped into Ambrose on the first day of classes, I was really worried whether I could meet people. I am quite introverted and not assertive to start off! When I attended the classes that I was enrolled in, I was surprised with the number of students. There were a couple of classes with only 5-15 students. Through that, I was able to meet friends! It was a lot easier to get to know people. I did not only meet friends, but also had the chance to build relationships with my professors. They knew my name and who I was! I did not only get to know people in the class, but also through the program itself; intercultural studies.
