Things people who leave their homeland will understand

Let’s say you wanna move, because for whatever reason you don’t like your homeland, sorry to tell you hun, but you will miss that country way more than you thought:



1. Miss the food


It’s not always the same as it is in your country. Sure, you could find restaurants doing that kind of cuisine, but nothing will taste like home.

2. Miss the family


Probably you’re cold hearted, probably you don’t like your family, probably you hate everyone, but at the end of the day… seeing a “familiar” face would make your day in this new country.


3. You’ll become a patriot


Did you hate patriotic days? Not anymore, anything that reminds you of home will be exquisite for you. You’ll start singing the anthem, you’ll start wearing the flag colors, and you’ll relate anything to your country.

4. Miss the friends


Even if you didn’t have many, you’d kill for having a friend to be with you to share some laughs. New experiences are amazing, and they get better when you have people who you love around you.


5. Hug that stranger who isn’t a stranger now


- Are you Mexican too?


- ¡Ahuevo!


- HERMANOOO



They would feel like family. Finally! Someone who can understand the struggle of being alone.

6. You are independent and a walking adventure


You don’t fear being a tourist, you did it and you’re surviving the experience. You meet new people and the cultural exchange is amazing. You learn about living life differently, some things weird you out, but others amaze you.

7. You change


No, you will never be the same. These wonderful people with their crazy and amazing traditions will change your life forever. You might prefer your homeland over this new country, or vice versa. Whatever happens, you left the old you in your city. There’s a new you now.



Have you left home? Which experiences changed your life when living in a different country?
