Best is starting new life
Worst the ones you miss
ReplyI moved abroad when I was little because my parents decided so. I didn't really had a choice so I didn't left people behind because I was 5 and still had no real friends..
do I regret it? Not really, it gave me another sight on things and life, I got to learn another language and I'm definitely more open minded...making friends Is harder tho and adjusting to the new environment where everyone already knows each other since they were little was also not easy sometimes, so It may be that you feel like you don't belong there because there are some little cultural differences that I didn't get at first. But now, after some years it is easier to make friends.
It depends on the place you're moving to, but the best thing is starting a new life where no one knows you and meeting other people and cultures also it let's you mature a lot...the worst thing is probably sometimes not fitting somewhere or having language barriers, also at first you don't know how things work and it can really be frustrating..
It has its ups and downs...but it is definitely an experience no one I know, has regretted yet ^ ^
ReplyMaking new friends was hard for me but I did make friends in time. I eventually ended up moving 'back' for a few reasons but was abroad for a few of years and am so glad I went. Nothing worth doing is easy. The best thing? Everything is new, unknown and exciting. It's a total adventure and if you're ready for it it can be an awesome period in your life. Nothing's perfect of course but that's life :)
