Talk to your friends, family
Almost everyone feels homesick in a new country. But that doesn’t mean that you have to shy away from your goals. In this digital era, you can easily reach out to your family and friends for support. Talk to your loved ones as per your convenience.

Build a support network
Befriend other international students & share your stories with them. Participate in various activities to meet new people. If you remain socially connected in the new country, you will feel a lot more at home.

Practice Adulting
Take care of yourself. Exercise regularly. Eat & sleep well. Instead of eating out, prepare your meals at home. To stay calm and composed, practise yoga, meditation & deep breathing exercises. Stay active by going for a walk or swim.

Know your city
Get to know your host country. Research online & find a few destinations to explore. This activity will boost up your confidence & you will no longer feel like an outsider. Try the local food & enjoy the hospitality of the people.

Channel your feelings
Don’t bottle up your feelings. Keep a journal to release your pent-up emotions. Don’t forget to write about the things you are grateful for. Paint, sing, dance, write poems or do what makes you feel happy & satisfied.
