I am a software engineer. In 2021, I moved to Canada for my Masters. Adapting to a new culture was a challenge, but the support of kind people made it easier. Finding a part-time job was tough; I went from shop to shop, determined to succeed. Cooking was a learning curve, but it gave me a sense of accomplishment.

Balancing studies with daily life was a big task. It felt like juggling, but I learned to manage my time effectively. With time, I grew not only in academics but as a person, thanks to the diverse perspectives around me. Canada became a second home, warm and welcoming.

I often missed my family and friends back in India. It was a challenge, but I learned to be practical. Video calls and messages became lifelines, bridging the distance.
Over time, I turned homesickness into motivation for my studies. This experience taught me the strength of independence and the power of forming new connections. Now, I live with knowledge and confidence, ready for whatever comes next.

I would like to encourage people and help them with my positive attitude. Let’s connect and exchange smiles with each other.
