When you are back in you home country…
The funny things that can happen when you come back:
- you order everything in English
- the shops are closed and it is only Sunday
- the food doesn´t taste so salty
- you´re irritated because you cannot watch TV anymore (hint: don´t look at the lips!)
- you miss the tax on your bill
- You’re looking for Ben and Jerry’s at your shopping center but can’t find it
How to adjust better:
- talk to other Au Pairs about your time in the US and your time here
- try to make yourself busy, the same as coming to the US
- show pictures
- talk to people who visited you in the States
- give yourself time, it might take a month or two before you feel at home again
- it helps a lot if you know what you do after your arrival in Germany (start studying or work,…)
- and if you miss it too much, call your family, watch a movie in English, get the English books out and read
