Hello there, my name is Augustine. Welcome to InterChambana — an online resource to make life easier and more connected for internationals in Champaign-Urbana.
Moving to a new country is exciting — an hard. You leave behind family, friends, career, and culture to start from scratch. Everything is new.
I remember hopping into an Uber when I first landed in O'Hare to bring me to Champaign. Thankfully, the driver told me (not so politely) to get out. I’ve heard countless stories just like mine.
That’s why InterChambana was created: a friendly and fun guide to the things that would otherwise take weeks or months to learn. Whether CU is home or you're just passing through, we’re here to help you find your footing and feel at home.
Thanks for stopping by ❤️
Augustine
