Longing back to your exchange country
When you get back to your home country you’ll probably have a great time. Your parents want to do everything for you, fix the best food and take you everywhere.
Your friends will maybe have a “welcome home”-party for you.
But after a month you will be back to normal, with usual TV-nights or maybe a night with the computer. It is often then, when you are not doing anything, that you long back to your year as an exchange student.
Sometimes it can be very hard and heavy. My advice is to talk to other friends that have been away for a year, they have probably experienced the same things. Become a member of the forum here at Exchange Student World and talk your experiences.

What to read next:
High School
As an exchange student you will spend most of the time in school. It is very important for you to create as much positive influences in school as possible.
Pack for a year
To pack for a whole year might feel like a tough task. But it is actually not as hard as it sounds. There are though some things you should think about before you start.
Culture shock
Culture shock is very common amongst exchange students. You need to be aware that some things are going to be really different from what you are used to in your home country. You will need to accept this.
