• THRIVE - What does it mean to ‘thrive’? 🖐️ . According to Residence Life Coordinator Andrew Zettel, it means: feeling comfortable in your own skin, and being able to pursue the things in life that bring you joy. I thrive when I'm playing piano, making people laugh, or going out to explore new cities and countries. Life definitely has challenges, and it can get pretty rough sometimes, but when you're surrounded by a supportive community, you're better able to overcome and start to feel that greater sense of fulfillment. . We hope you’ve enjoyed our Thrive Week. The mental health & wellness of our residents is so important to us. Let’s keep the conversation going throughout the year and continue to make Campus1 MTL a place where everyone can THRIVE! 🌿 #Thrive #MentalHealth #Wellness #StudentResidence #CanadianCampusCommunities #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #ThriveWeek #Montreal #Quebec #Canada
