Hello everyone! m name’s william (NotWilliam Wei Loh) and I am an international student from Indonesia. Maybe some of you don’t know what and where Indonesia is, so one of my pictures is a map of Indonesia. It’s located in south east Asia, and it’s on the other side of the world from here. It takes me literaly 30 hours to get here and I’ve been here for a month or so. Now some of you may wonder why would I want to go to college half way around the world where I live and be away from all my friends and family. Well to answer that, I chose baruch because of it’s location in New York City, with its diversity and amazing opportunities. I also chose baruch because I have an aunt and uncle who lives here in NY

So far, the experience has been very great for me, been meeting some new friends and been exploring the city. My aunt has helped me transition here a little easy, although I sometimes miss home and the food over there.  (yes it’s really good). I also miss the great weather and beaches over there as well, I’ll have to brace my self for winter cos it’s something I’m definitely not familiar with. Another thing that i miss is my friends that i have left behind back home, I guess we have to go our separate ways, but we can always talk through Skype or FaceTime. I like to travel and wander through different places, cos I find it interesting to explore and try new stuffs. One of the photos is my last trip to Japan last june. I like to watch basketball and my favorite NBA team is the Golden State Warriors. these photos have shown pretty much who I am, and hopefully I’ll be better and have a great experience here in Baruch.
