Making the most of moving away – University of Virginia The Cavalier Daily

by | Sep 28, 2017 | Features

Keep connected to your family and friends back home to make you feel more involved with your old life. Call your parents, text your friends or FaceTime your dog share your experiences and let them know how you’re feeling. But try not to spend all day on social media. Decorate your dorm room. Fairy lights and pictures of your family and friends will make your room a home away from home. Make a list of what you want to do while at the University so you have something to look forward to. Think positive.

Key Takeaways:

  • Keeping busy can help deal with homesickness
  • Staying connected with friends and family can also help
  • Staying positive and having a list of action points can help deal with homesickness

“Keep connected to your family and friends back home to make you feel more involved with your old life.”
