Reading Tips While-reading 03 While-reading Finding my place in a new country What if you have to move to a place far away from your home, where you even can't speak the language? That's what happened to me when I was only seven. I had to say goodbye to my friends and leave everything safe and familiar behind. There were so many tears and worries at first. I still remember my first days at school in Rome, Italy. I felt very uneasy because I couldn't speak Italian, and I didn't know anyone. Luckily, my classmates were very kind. They showed me around the school and helped me learn the language. Once I came out of my shell, there were new challenges. Italians are always direct, and they usually express their opinions very strongly. Sometimes they spoke in a loud voice and I thought they were angry at me. This was very different from the UK, and I felt awkward sometimes. Now I've accepted those differences. I've got used to the life here, and I'm in love with Rome. It's a wonderful city to explore and there are so many exciting things to do. I love going for a walk on the street and stopping by a coffee shop or pizza restaurant. I love visiting museums, where I can admire some of the world's finest artworks. And I also love spending time at the local square with my friends. The place I used to be so afraid of, Rome, now feels like home. Moving to a different city or country can be lonely, but it's also exciting to try new things. If you're brave and open-minded, you'll not only have a wonderful time but also learn to understand and respect others who are quite different from you. Learning about different cultures will make your life more interesting and meaningful.
