First impressions as an exchange student

The first impression upon arrival to your new country will always be very special. However, the feelings will vary greatly from person-to-person. Many people feel incredible joy and excitement but there are others who start crying in fear and wondering “What have I done?”.

Awareness

Overly high expectations, combined with a bad beginning with your host parents or school, could be a catastrophic combination!

Host family

Most host families do it because they are interested in learning about other countries and cultures. Be prepared to share yours!

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.
