Hello, my name is Kanae Ohashi and I am from Japan. I have been here in Halifax for 3 months. I like the waterfront and I chose it here because it's a small city. Halifax is a small city and I feel people here are very kind and friendly. Sometimes people start talking on the bus even if they don't know each other. There are lots of festivals in summer so I am going to do some volunteer work soon. ECSL has many good teachers and they are very friendly.
