Next week when I finish taking my final examination, I will also have finished one of

the best experiences I have ever had in my lifetime.In the last four months.I have learned more about foreign cultures than I expected before coming to the United States.

Living in a foreign country and going to school with people from various parts of the world has given me the opportunity to encounter and interact with people from different cultures.I would like to share some of my experiences and thoughts with you.When I first arrived.I knew no one and I needed all fingers to communicate what i said in English.All of the foreign students were in the same situation.When we could not find the right word we used strange movements and gestures to communicate our meaning.

Knowing some common phrases.such as How are you？ Fine.thank you.and what country are you from？was enough in the beginning for us to make friends with each other.The TV room in the dormitory became our meeting place every evening after dinner.but for the most part their words were just a strange mumble to us.

After a while, bored and a little sad, we slowly began to disappear to our rooms.I thought that all of us were experiencing some homesickness.However, despite my loneliness.I had a good feeling within myself because I was doing what I wanted to do for many years to live and study in a foreign country.
