<aside> 💡 I arrived in Ottawa a week ago, and in short, it has exceeded my expectations.

My postgraduate school, Carleton University, is even more beautiful than I imagined, with modern facilities that I absolutely love. It’s a pleasure to study here.

Ottawa is also a cycling-friendly city, something I hadn’t anticipated. I bought a bike on my second day in Canada to use for commuting. Fortunately, I’ve spent these days riding around and exploring Ottawa, discovering wonderful bike trails along the river and canal. The scenery is beautiful, almost like something out of a fairytale. The specialized bike lanes provide safety and are filled with friendly bikers, creating a warm atmosphere—even though my speed is often slower than theirs. 😅😅😅
