I've dreamed of cycling through New York for a long time

a little bit about something:

The most amazing thing is that we started our day at Columbia University and finished at Times Square, where we met a master's student from the SAME university. And then we found out that he graduated from the SAME university where I am currently studying - MNU/KAZGUU. (He was the first Kazakh I've met in the USA in the three months I've been here)

On the way home on the train, I remembered another student whom my friends and I met on the "Pirates of the Baltic Sea" cruise. He is doing his second master's degree in Finland. In Boston, there are also two Kazakh girls from NIS Shymkent, both named Assel: one graduated from Yale University and now works at Harvard, the other just started her master's degree there.

Such stories inspire me incredibly. You hear their stories, and the thought immediately pops into your head: "Wait, was that even possible?"

It's interesting that these people don't even suspect it) Thank you, you are the best!!! Magzhan Zhumabayev was right when he said "I believe in the youth"
