As a newly arrived student, you might find that nothing seems familiar and you might find difficulties doing or understanding things that seem easy to other people. Things like riding on public transport for the first few times, shopping in supermarkets self check outs, talking to people with a different accent. These can be intimidating but you will get better and they will seem easier with time and more practice.

I wish you the best student experience and an amazing international experience while at it. Stay open minded and open hearted. Through this journey, you will meet people who will teach things about the world and about yourself, pay attention. You will grow in years, in knowledge, experience and hopefully in wisdom.
