We are a group of international students at TRU, and this website is a space where we share the real stories, challenges, and experiences that come with studying in a new country.

Moving far from home is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. From the loneliness of settling in, to finding food that reminds us of home, figuring out housing, waiting on buses that don’t show up, or balancing work with school, these are everyday struggles that shape our journey.

This website brings those stories together. Each of us will explore a different side of what it means to be an international student, through articles, photos, and reflections.

We hope our stories connect with others who share these experiences, and also spark understanding within the wider TRU community. Feel free to explore, reflect, and even share your own ideas with us.

Welcome to our space.
