在外留学，难免思乡之情来袭。幸运的是，在你之前已经有很多人经历过这种痛苦，并留下了宝贵经验。
Be Outdoor person
到户外去
Even if you have nowhere to go, make sure you spend at least 20 minutes outside every day. The fresh air and sunshine can give you an instant mood lift. Plus, this is a great chance to explore and see things you won’t while sitting inside- even if you just take a walk around campus.
即使你没地方可去，也要保证每天至少有20分钟待在户外。阳光和新鲜的空气能够立刻给你带来好心情。而且，你也会发现很多你待在家里没机会发现的东西。
Focused Mind
集中注意力
More than likely your time studying abroad is limited. This means you only have a few weeks or months to enjoy your host country, but the rest of your life to enjoy where you come from (if you’ll be returning after your trip). If you don’t enjoy your time abroad due to being homesick, think about how you’ll feel once you do return home- more than likely pretty upset that you didn’t enjoy your journey to the fullest.
海外留学的时间可能是有限的，也就是说你可能只有几周或几个月来享受你在留学国家的时光，而剩下的时间则要在你的祖国度过（如果你完成学业之后回国的话）。如果你把在国外的时间都用来思乡而不是好好享受，那么想想，一旦回国，你肯定会因为没有尽情享受国外生活而失望。
Little Goals help
先定一个小目标
Make attainable social goals daily like to talk to one person in your class or to sign up for a club. It’s important to establish a relationship with individuals in your host country to make it feel like your new home. When you have a friend to enjoy your time with, it’s usually more fun!
每天制定一个容易达到的社交小目标，例如：与你班上的一个同学交谈，或者去一个俱乐部。在外留学与人建立社交关系是非常重要的，这会让你觉得这个国家就像你的新家一样。而与朋友共享快乐时光则更是乐上加乐！
Technology tactics
科技是把双刃剑
Technology is great for keeping in contact with friends and family back home, but don’t let it be a crutch. Monitor how often you call or Skype home and make sure it’s not impacting your experience abroad.
先进的技术使得你与朋友和家人的联系变得便捷，然而，不要过度依赖它。注意你打电话或网络聊天的频率，确保不要影响你在国外的生活体验。
Revive your hobby
重拾你的爱好
Just because you’re abroad doesn’t mean you can’t continue your workout routine or knitting club. Do a bit of research or ask your school advisor about any information they might have on a group based around your hobby. If there isn’t one- start one!
人在国外并不意味着你必须中断你的健身习惯或其他爱好。自己做一点搜索，或者问问学校的学生顾问，找到你感兴趣的社团。如果找不到——那就创建一个吧！
总之，你要记住，思乡是正常的，关键是要积极寻找方法去减轻这种情绪，尽可能地享受你在国外的生活。
