Hi, So my first 2 days were overwhelming, in short I would just say, that everything was NEW. A lot of things to take care off. People to get to know, a language to learn, etc...

But when I settled down a bit more it was easier to join the everyday life here. 

There are always ups and downs in life. 

Our apartment example, me and one of my flatmates, had to first clean and clear out the whole place. Luckily I like cleaning and it does give a certain feeling of achievement. 

Another thing, me and my flatmates are all completely different, which is hard sometimes, but gives us all so much to learn and many different ways to view things. 

So many things were already taken care of for us, housing, language course, free traveling, and if we have any questions there is always someone to answer them. 

Overall this has given me quite a bit already.
