1. Communicating without words
Believe it or not, communication without words is possible. Body language is a universal language that comes to your rescue! I find it amazing how people can communicate with expressions and gestures so perfectly that language does not seem to be a barrier anymore.
2. Independence
Staying away from home with only your core family does make you more independent. With not having a big/extended family around you, you start planning for yourself. This independence is also seen in financial areas. You learn to save money for rough days since you don’t have your near and dear ones around to help you.
3. Open-mindedness
If you take the decision of immigrating to a foreign country, you already have an above average open-mindedness rating. Moving to a foreign country, you are exposed to countless new things. Accepting those new things yet not giving in to doing the wrong things can be difficult. You are exposed to so many distinct point of views, and things get pretty interesting and confusing if you try to comprehend all of them!
4. Basic human instincts are the same!
Despite all the differences in cultures and lifestyles, you learn that we all share many things that make us connect with each other, making the transition process a lot easier.
