First, we need to create a wallet and request test tokens:

1\. Connect your metamask wallet: [https://goerli.portal.zksync.io/faucet](https://t.co/sT2cHotaZC)

2\. Request funds from the faucet.

3\. You can transfer or receive funds to or from anyone.

4\. Try the bridge feature between zkSync goerli and ETH goerli.
