For all the excitement, imagining, and preparation leading up to your overseas plane journey, the truth for many students is that the first few days of studying abroad can be very overwhelming. After all, no amount of reading, dreaming or chatting about arrangements with friends and family will ever prepare you for what it feels like to finally set foot in a new world which is home to a variety of unfamiliarity, all while realizing that this international place will be your home for the next few weeks, months or more. Indeed, because of the sheer amount of excitement that surrounds, the first week after you arrive in a foreign country to study abroad can be the most difficult for students. Between the sights of the city to an apartment or home live, to the faces that accompany you in college and on the sidewalks, so much is different about you, and trying to manage your newly discovered condition will come with its challenges.
