In the first few hours and days, your host family will probably ask you questions about yourself. The questions are usually about your trip, the weather in your home country, and why you decided to come to Nova Scotia to study. These questions are an expression of genuine interest. Your host family is excited to have a new member join their family. However, even with the questions, the first few hours and days may seem a little awkward. This will soon pass, however, and everyone will feel more comfortable as time passes.
Getting active is the best way to experience new places and things. Every place in the world is different. Some people find normal lifestyles, while others find them strange. Remember, choosing to come to Nova Scotia is an opportunity to experience something different, so relax and enjoy.
Culture shock happens to all international students to varying degrees. At orientation, NSISP representatives discuss culture shock and methods of dealing with the problem.
Four phases to be aware of:
Nova Scotia schools offer many extracurricular activities, including sports, arts, and music. The NSISP encourages students to get involved. International students have played on local sports teams, been involved in local music groups, and participated in their high school theatre productions, to name a few. International students must meet new people and get involved in activities. It helps to make their time in Nova Scotia more memorable.
Again, this is why participating in extracurricular activities is part of the contract you signed when agreeing to participate in the NSISP.
