Meet Alicia Bird

Hi I’m Alicia, I’m from Sherbrooke but now live in Montréal. I did my exchange in Aarhus, Denmark. I am an extremely social person who enjoys meeting new people above almost anything else. If I’m not spending my free time having picnics with friends, I’m either reading, cuddling with my cat, or cooking. Exchange was an amazing experience for me, so feel free to reach out for anything and everything!

The one thing I wished I would have known before going on exchange is…

Not to stress, everything always works out the way it’s meant to.

Going on exchange challenged me because…

I deal with anxiety quite a bit.

I recommend going on exchange because…

It pushes you to develop yourself in a completely new environment, you grow more than imaginable, you make friends from all around the world, you make memories for a lifetime

The most unexpected part about exchange was…

I was afraid I would either miss home so much or never want to come back, but if you truly live in the moment and accept that it is not your real life, you find a very comfortable balance between the two!
