“Since arriving at Berkeley and starting college, I've experienced a lot of fascinating and surprising things. From the charm of the university and its surroundings to the many shops around the university, where you can find anything - such as restaurants, cafes, pharmacies, and clothes stores. There are always so many people, I never feel anxious.”
