"As a new immigrant, I definitely went through a lot of adjustments, but by volunteering as an Accountant at Links for Greener Learning, I became pre-occupied once or twice a week during my days-off by doing something I like, so it became easier for me to get through these adjustments. At the same time, I get some helpful advices from my co-workers who were also immigrants"
