  • In this video I will be discussing simple actions to take to make friends while studying abroad. While making friends is obviously subjective to each person hopefully this video will provide a jumping off point. Nerves can run high when you move to a new city or let alone country, so hopefully this video will be a reliever to those who are nervous! I discuss activities like joining societies, connecting with friends on Facebook, joining your ESN club, attending dorm events and saying yes to new opportunities.

    Hoping to study abroad in Edinburgh in the fall and I'm a massive introvert, didn't have much luck at my home university meeting friends so I'm just trying to prepare myself lol. Thanks for this video, it was super helpful!

      @@jackmiller1712 Just wanted to clarify that I was only saying that I myself am an introvert, and was seeking advice on how to connect to people while abroad, not that I expected everyone in Europe / Edinburgh would necessarily be more outgoing than people in America.

    Hi Katie! I'm new to your channel and I instantly fell in love with your videos. They're so refreshing to watch. I can also resonate with you about being Introvert and making new friends. However you've inspired me to step out of my comfort zone! With love, your newest subscriber💛

    The worst experience is talking with a people say hi and talk something I love and the people I talk to just don't give a fuck to what I am I saying and ignore me all the time 😭😭😭😭😭

    I think you should consider joining acting/modelling school cuz with your "Amanda Seyfried eyes" you can make it to Hollywood
