Even if you moved to another country not for permanent residence, but, say, for six months, this will lead to some changes in your life. Let's find out how emigration affects a person.
What happens to you when you move to another country
You will learn a new language
This is, of course, perfectly obvious. First, you will begin to memorize words, and then, even if you do not learn the language, you will still begin to understand speech. You will even start thinking in another language. To your surprise, you will begin to forget the Russian language, of course, you will not forget it at all, but various incidents will arise. Some words will be forgotten, and when you return to your home country, you will often make inaccuracies.
You will have a craving for travel.
After immigration, you will notice that you have developed a desire for travel. You will want to learn about life in other countries, visit beautiful places, communicate with new people. You will be less attached to your home. Many even move on to a kind of nomadism.
You will get life experience
Communication with people of other countries, their customs and other mentality - all this will be deposited on your life, and you will gain a good experience. Perhaps your worldview will radically change, and even your character will change.
You will compare prices
You will automatically scroll in your head the prices of products in other countries and in your country. There will always be some kind of exchange rate in your head.
You will have a different concept of normality
According to psychologists, for each the norm is its own specific. That is, no one can say how it really is - normal. The rate depends, among other things, on cultural conditions. Despite the fact that the world is globalized, mass culture is spreading, there is the Internet everywhere, the culture is still different in different countries. As soon as you have experience of life in the other direction, you will feel more relaxed about something unusual and normal. It is the cultural space that determines the perception of reality.
You will become differently oriented in time
In different countries, they orient themselves in different ways in time. For example, somewhere people live strictly according to the calendar and almost by the minute, but in some countries, the appointment of a meeting even provides for a half-hour delay, and this is considered the norm. And your orientation in time will also change, at first the changes will be unusual for you, but you quickly adapt.
You will lose everything you once thought was valuable.
Many are against emigration precisely because it is believed that a person who has arrived is absolutely not needed by anyone in a foreign country. And I'll tell you, you need to understand that nowhere is a person needed by anyone except himself. When you come to another country, you also leave your relatives in Russia, your usual routes, places and even emotional experiences! Yes, everything that you considered valuable will remain far away from you, but you will have more freedom and new opportunities will open before you.
Yes, emigration will leave you without many of the usual components of life, it will even weed out from you some people whom you may have considered close and indispensable for yourself. But giving up all of this will open up new opportunities for you. You realize how much a person is able to accomplish in this world, and how much can change.
So the expatriate experience is an excellent experience with positive impact!
