Moving to a foreign country is an amazing, life-changing experience. It's an opportunity to meet new people, make yourself completely involved in a different culture and possibly learn another language. However, beforeembarking onsuch an adventure, there are some practical decisions that need to be made. One such decision is choosing where to live.

For me, choosing to live with a French family was the best choice I made, and here is why.

Firstly, a family can show you around the city or town and help you settle in, stopping you from feeling lonely. When you're in a new environment with people you don't know and who are speaking a language you're still not fluent in, you might feel lost, tired and homesick—I know I did. However, my host family were wonderful and welcoming;they showed me which buses to take to get to work, cooked dinner for me so we could eat together, and took me with them on trips to the beach, the theatre and even a bullring. These were great opportunities to experience French culture and build relationships, which in turn helped me feel at home and welcome.

Moreover, living with French people has been beneficial to helping me improve my language skills. Being constantly exposed to authentic French conversation has allowed me to learn new phrases, widen my vocabulary and even improve my accent. My host family are happy to answer my questions and correct me when I say things wrong, which makes me a better and more confident French speaker.

Finally, the experience of living abroad is one that you will remember forever, and perhaps the friendships—like the memories—will also last. Your host family might become your friends for life. You might return for their birthdays, weddings, holidays, and many more things. I sincerely hope to remain in contact with my host family long after I leave France because when I was away from my friends and loved ones, they welcomed me and made me part of their family.

Are you planning to study a course from a foreign university?  Well, these tips for studying abroad will make you feel at home in a new city.

Learn about the university.

When you decide to study abroad,  it is important to research well.  Instead, talk to people who have completed their studies from that country. This way you'll get some real information about the university you're applying for.

The more you speak to people,  the more you'll end up driving the blues away. Communicating with others will truly be helpful. Not only will it make it easier for you to face personal interviews but also to interact with the local people and fellow students.

Keep a diary.

Most students feel that the time they spent abroad was the best time for their lives. What's the better way to keep those moments "alive" forever? 

Be prepared for adjustments.

When you land up in a country with a culture that's completely different from yours,  chances are that you'll experience some levels of culture shock.

Consider your stay abroad as an opportunity to discover a new culture and learn new things.

Know what to do in an emergency.

 Get the details of the U. S. Embassy,  including the phone number,  and register(登记) yourself and your family members with the U. S. Embassy. This way you'll know whom to reach out to in case you're in an emergency.

A. Develop good communication skills.

B. Ensure you have all the documents.

C. However,  don't let that discourage you.

D. Make sure that you know what to do in the face of emergency.

E. Keep in touch with your friends at home to avoid homesickness.

F. Don't just follow advertisements blindly to choose the university.

G. You can write down every little detail of the beautiful time when you study abroad.
