I’m officially halfway through my semester at the University of Ottawa, oh how time has flown by. I am absolutely loving it. I’ve immersed myself in winter Canadian culture by seeing my first ice hockey game, shredding up the mountains, going cross-country skiing, skating along the canal, tubing in the snow and, of course, treating myself to beavertails as a sweet treat. Alongside all of this, I’m still managing my uni classes and currently studying for my mid-term exams which are coming up. I’ve been balancing my experiences well to avoid any extra stress which is a big saviour when studying and exploring a new place all at the same time. 

What a busy month, and a busy month to come!
