UBC Engineering Alumni Reconnect with Biking and Vietnamese Food

UBC Engineering Alumni Reconnect with Biking and Vietnamese Food

On a cloudy day in March, a group of CHBE alumni reunited for a biking trip around Stanley Park, followed by a delicious Vietnamese meal. During our time at UBC, biking together and grabbing a meal afterward was a tradition, so this gathering felt like stepping back into the "good old days." Despite our busy post-grad lives, we picked up right where we left off, enjoying the same camaraderie that made our university years so special.

Throughout the ride and over dinner, we swapped stories—reminiscing about our time at UBC and catching up on everything we’ve been up to since graduating five years ago. Our group has branched into various industries, from environmental consulting to wastewater operations, yet our shared experiences in CHBE have remained a strong foundation that keeps us connected. It was heartwarming to see that, even as our careers and lives evolve, our friendships remain just as strong.
