Albany is the first city that we landed on. Our American dream started from here.

Albany is a quite small town in Chinese standard. The historic capital city of Albany offers an exciting blend of magnificent architecture, art collections and culture.

Spring becomes biggest thing to celebrate after the long winter.

<= It is a tradition for SUNY Albany students to mark the spring day by a pool party

 

Spring are the most lovely thing you can wish during the last part of winter. For they are full of hope and full of life. When it comes, people totally forget about the long winter.

It is also a University town. When younger people first meet, they will always assume the other are student. The starting question would be "Which major are you in?", or "Which school are you in?"

We made a lots close friends in here. However, Albany is not a good place for job hurting. Almost all our friend left town following their jobs.
