About me

My name is Tanvi and I am an international student at UBC, Vancouver. I come from Mumbai, India.  I intend to major in Economics and/or minor in Political Science.

This is my space to share my journey with you, and I hope it’d be an interesting or useful read!

I intend to use this space for a variety of reasons, some for me but most for you. I want my unique experiences to add to your own in a way that you can not only relate to it but also (hopefully) learn from it! This is because I truly feel that experiential learning is the best way of learning: sometimes through your own and sometimes through others’ experiences!

In order to effectively compartmentalise my posts I have created separate categories. For now, there’s:
– Home
– About me
– Res life
– Course Reviews
– #AppreciationPost

I hope this blog finds you well!

Here’s an exceptionally pretty picture of the sky I took here on campus (no filter)
