Help! How Do I Adjust to A New Town? (E212)
How do I adjust to living in a new town?
Many grads face this challenge at some point. The time comes to pack the car, relocate, and get settled in a brand new place. But once you arrive, how do you meet people? Discover your favorite coffee shop? Find the quickest route to the grocery store? Most importantly, how long before it starts to feel like home?
This week, we’re joined by Josephine, an InterVarsity alumna who’s been living in a new town for 10 months but still doesn’t feel at home. Jon and Josephine discuss strategies for getting settled, exploring her surroundings, and taking steps toward making new friends.
