Hello everyone,
my name is Kath.
I’m an international student in Canada from the Philippines taking up post-graduate studies in Content Strategy at Humber College. Prior to moving to Canada to study, I used to overthink for a living. I worked as a Digital Strategist in a media corporation in the Philippines for 6 good years. I have been very passionate about storytelling and curious about the digital world since 2015.

Congrats for reaching this part of my monologue. Enough about me, and more about this blog. I know that Studying in Canada is not cheap and it requires so much preparation and research. It can be both exciting and overwhelming because there are a lot of things you need to know. Sometimes it’s easy for things to slip and you may not realize that you’re missing a requirement or a step until it’s too late. And this is why I created this blog--to lessen the hassle of planning and researching about studying in Canada. So if you are starting to consider studying in Canada or are already preparing to come here, you’ve come to the right place because I will help you navigate your journey to Canada.
I know that there are a lot of worries and anxiety with every new journey. I’ve been there, and it is completely understandable. You are uprooting yourself and going to a foreign land. Scared? Good. We don’t grow when we stay inside our comfort zones. Don’t fret--I got you, bestie.
So, shall we start with your Study in Canada checklist? :) Let’s do this. 💪🏻
Your new bestie,
Kath
