More than 40 million Americans move each year, but not always by choice. Whether you're moving because of work or schooling or for better chances, adjusting (适应) to the life in a new place can be difficult. Here are some tips to help you adjust to your new home.
Treat it as an adventure.
So stay positive, get out there and explore! Taste the local food and visit famous places and museums. Try local activities that aren't popular in your former city, such as skating if you come from a beach town or surfing if you lived in the mountains. You may discover a talent or interest you never knew you had.
Get involved (参与) with your neighbors.
Introduce yourself to neighbors and everyone else you meet. This is the best way to get advice about living in your area, and to make new friends. Attend local events that interest you, visit the markets or yard sales, take classes and so on. All of these things will help you meet more people and feel connected.
