Interview with a new student

I interviewed my roomie from Chilé who arrived here in January. I gave some advice to him based on my stay here. It was a nice conversation and he got a chance to ask me some questions as well.

Our conversation summed up

Seek the Adventures

We talked about how important it is to seek the adventure. Even though we are in one of the best cities in the world, adventures don’t just come to you. You have to seek them. Get out and be engaged and your stay will be amazing.

Talk a lot - okay to settle down

We talked about the importance of getting out there, talking to a lot of people. But also about the fact that it is okay to settle down with a group of friends you like at some point. It is only natural that after the first few weeks you will start to settle more down with the people you like and you have a connection with.

Take a break from time to time

The final thing we discussed was how it is okay to take a break for time to time. No one expects you to be out all the time adventuring. It is okay to take lazy Sunday off watching Netflix from time to time. It is these days that make it possible to be there 100% the other days of the week.
