Although there are many opposing factors leading to tears, tearing up applications, financial difficulties, long tea breaks, difficulty in passing the IELTS test, and even quarreling with parents. I got all the funds and social support I needed to study abroad. After a sleepless night and an emotional farewell at the airport, I finally boarded the plane. When traveling, I was scared and thinking about my future. I didn't even realize when I was going to bed. I got up after the pilot announced. I saw something that I will never forget in my life. This is a view of the sky in London. I can't believe it. Suddenly, I told myself one thing-I want to settle in this dream city and spend my life. Finally, after a nine-hour journey, I arrived at my destination. London, a beautiful city. Not knowing the difference between British English and American English, I found myself caught in a 7-day cultural shock, a pound cost, fish and chips with insufficient seasoning, and the confusion of not having family in a new place. Running away from home for the first time gradually ignited my anger and gradually turned into gratitude. I thank all my friends who supported me in this journey.
? Since I received the letter of acceptance from a world-class university in Britain, I found that London Meteorological University is perfect, where I don't have to consider academics, accommodation, fees, funds or social life. As a matter of fact, I'd rather not study in London, because it is considered expensive. However, now I am really glad that I decided to continue my studies here. I love this city and all the possibilities it offers. Finding accommodation is very easy, because your university can help you. I found one through the university website, and I really like living in London. It's great to walk along the Thames or shop in Oxford Street! Besides, I am totally immersed in the culture of London through short trips every week. Because London has the best public transport service, it is very easy to visit places in London.
? Teachers and teaching methods are very good. The teacher's schoolbag is full of relevant experience and enthusiasm. The guest lecturer is great. His well-organized, simple presentations and working drawings help to understand complex topics. When the whole class does not perform well in a certain part of the module, he will give personal attention.
? Enjoy city life. I can only say London-it's busy, luxurious and the people are friendly. London is famous for its nightlife, providing world-class London theaters, top clubs in the West End, alternative Camden scenes, fashion nights in Shoreditch and so on. From comedy night, drama night, music night or town night, there are many interesting things to do in London at night. There are many restaurants in London, and the restaurants are great. Knowing what to try and order may be tricky, but some dishes must not be missed. Besides, you can get food from almost anywhere all day.
? Finding New Friends Life without friends in London is completely terrible, especially when you are an international student and far away from home. But it is not difficult to make friends here. It all depends on communication and addiction with new friends. I am lucky to find so many good friends in my accommodation and college. I am having a swell time. I go to nightclubs or bars, visit different places, go shopping and do many interesting activities with new friends. We are not together yet, but I am lucky to have these crazy and partying people in my life. Over the years, they still care about me and want me to stay in London. As the largest city in Britain, London is also one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the world. London celebrates this extensive culture and language in many different ways-mainly delicious food and vivid festivals. I'm still surprised to fall in love with London. After all, London is my second home! Studying abroad is one of my best learning experiences. Studying abroad is highly recommended. You can improve your second language, learn a lot from new friends and learn about different cultures.
? Choose between on-campus and off-campus accommodation There are many private accommodations in London, but compared with rooms and houses, they are too expensive. You can also find rooms and houses in www.gumtree.com. I would advise students to share apartments because it is cheaper. Besides, you can easily find people from your own country to stay. You won't face food and cultural problems.
? Factors to consider before choosing a place I suggest students check the commuting distance and time between your residence and the university. Also check the availability of nearby shops, restaurants and public transportation. Please check the crime rate and security services in your area. Best of all, when you choose any accommodation, your landlord will provide all necessary facilities, such as Internet, basic facilities, new beds, etc.
