Matilde Martins

Hi! My name is Matilde Martins, and I’m a 20-year-old exchange student from Portugal. I’ll be studying at the Ivey Business School (Western University) from September to December 2026.

I’m a very sociable, outgoing, and friendly person who loves meeting new people and spending time with friends. I enjoy being part of a community, trying new experiences, and making the most of every opportunity.

I chose Canada for my exchange because I wanted to step outside my comfort zone, experience a different culture, and challenge myself both personally and academically. I’m really excited to meet people from all over the world, create lasting friendships, and make this experience unforgettable.
