  2. Adaptation in a new city
  3. Adaptation in college

1- Adapting to a new job can be a challenging experience for most people, due to the insecurity of dealing with a new environment where they will have new processes and rules, in addition to co-workers with whom you will have to live daily. So it is important to be open to the learning that a new job will have, having responsibility to deal with the rules, being friendly to people, willing to learn and to help. Being an ethical person is already the principle for adaptation to occur organically and effectively.

2- Adapting to a new city is an experience that can be more complex depending on the old city in which you lived, if it was a large city and you moved to a city in the countryside, the adaptation will probably be longer and more difficult.

However, it is essential to seek to meet other people, discover the strengths of the city and be open to live new memories and experiences.

3- Adapting to college is something that most young people will go through, usually this is a faster adaptation process, since there are many people in the same situation as you, which can mean more direct and open contact with people.
