#ccstaycation Hannah from Saskatoon

Hi, I'm Hannah! I wanted to join in on the #ccstaycation fun and tell you more about where I'm from – Saskatoon, SK, Canada. Saskatoon is the biggest city in Saskatchewan. It is located on the South Saskatchewan River. Saskatoon is known as the “City of Bridges” because of the 7 bridges spanning our river. It is also known as a university city, with the University of Saskatchewan located here.
