Portfolio Task-2

     Today traveling is much easier than before, and there are many people who are traveling to new cities or countries for several reasons like education or work.

     People who move to new cities or countries might face many challenges in the new place. The first challenge is the language, if you move to a country that  does not speak your language. The second challenge is the weather, if you live in a hot climate and you move to Europe in a cold climate. Moreover, to live in a different culture is a big challenge, you will live in a place where they wear different clothes, have a different life style and food. In addition, you will feel lonely and far away from your family and friends, and maybe you will feel scared while moving around the city in the first few days. Furthermore, if you travel to a poor country you will face many challenges like health care or finding the proper place to live in or the proper transport to move around the city.

     There are several solutions to overcome the challenges. For example to overcome the language challenge you should learn the language or learn the basics to communicate in the shops or restaurants. To overcome these challenges you should respect their culture and also before you move to the new place learn about their culture. Also you should search in the internet for the places that you might need. In the first few days find other people like you religion, people who speak your language or people from your country.
