Starting my Bachelor’s in Nepal soon after living overseas my whole life. Any advice?
Hey everyone, I'll try to keep this short
I have lived overseas my entire life, but I recently decided to pursue my Bachelor's degree here in Nepal. I actually just arrived two days ago, took an entrance exam, and got admitted! My college/uni starts in September, and I'm looking for a bit of advice as I transition.
A few quick things about my situation:
The Language Barrier:My Nepali isn't the best. My parents speak it at home, but I’d scale my own fluency at around 60–70%. I am way more comfortable and fluent in English. Do you think that will be an issue in university?
Making Friends: I have literally zero Nepali friends. Growing up overseas, most of my friends were European, Brazilian, and Australian.
My Personality: I’m definitely not an introvert—I'd say I'm pretty extroverted and social.
I would love to get any tips or advice on how to assimilate, what to expect from uni culture here, and the best ways to make friends.
Thanks a lot, it means a lot!
