Studying in Canada and adjusting to a new environment can be both exciting and stressful. Join this workshop to learn more about cultural adjustment and build confidence in navigating a new or unfamiliar environment. Through this session, you will reflect on your international experiences while painting your tote bags. We will also share tips and strategies to cope with homesickness and cultural adjustment. All U of T students are welcome to join!

This workshop is moderated and facilitated by your peers, HealthyU Crew members from Health & Wellness and the International Student Experience (ISE) work-study team from the Centre for International Experience.
