Excuse my hair in this video and excuse the simple editing. I've started working again so my videos will most likely be delayed but I will try my best to post as much as I can 🙏 Let me know your experience making friends overseas 👇

@@KiekoM Teaching isn’t easy, but it’s pretty good pay. 😊 I would say it is overstimulating and depending on where you work, the local work culture is quite toxic too. 🙈 good for you & best of luck!!

hii i've been watching your videos and thankyou for making this one about making friends overseas!! i grew up in hk and i'm currently in college in the states. i've recently been thinking a lot about how nice it would be to have an actual friend who i can talk to, hangout/study with while i'm in school. for me i think it's mostly because of my personality that makes me take a lot of time to make a friend, even basic casual socializing rarely happens. there is someone i sometimes talk to in school but, no offense, i wouldn't call them as friends just yet. i believe i am pretty open-minded when it comes to listening to others sharing their own experiences regardless of background, interests, etc.. i am working on trying to be more outgoing i guess and hopefully i will be able to make some friends soon. i definitely agree there are nice people everywhere but sometimes itbjust takes time to find those go along well with you:) i enjoy watching your videos and hope you're doing well overall!! :p

Hi! Yeah it really does take a long time. Especially when we all keep changing as well. We are changing and growing so what we used to like won’t be the same as before. Some people prefer quantity over quality but I definitely prefer quality which is why good friends are harder to find. I hope you are able to find at least one person from your college like I did. There will always be at least one person who understands you and clicks with your personality! Hope you adjust to your new life in the states! Thanks for watching my videos 😁

Hey Kieko, I always believe in quality friends rather than quality, where you can be your true self whenever you are with them, it's nothing wrong to choose your friends wisely. How do you know they are true friends, is that when you are at your lowest point, they are still there to give you the support and attention that you needed, my 2 cents...
