Wandering in a graveyard just at midnight for example. Or going to the basement after watching a horror movie. Or spiders. But whatever scares you, the thought of moving out from your childhood home might exceed your daily worries &#8211; in case you\u2019re not experienced yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At home, you\u2019re pretty much protected from the serious aspects of the world. And now? Now you suddenly have to face them all on your own. It\u2019s like standing against a dragon with merely a stick to your defence and &#8211; oh, maybe I\u2019m exaggerating a bit (I\u2019ve never even seen a dragon\u2026). No doubt, leaving the nest comes with some challenges. And a few discouraged moments might be unavoidable. But that can\u2019t stop me from giving you some advice on how things are gonna get easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving out for the first time comes with two major topics to deal with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_dc89fead4a794224519b44ab46bc081d\" class=\"slider-text rund\">\n    \n    <div class=\"content\">\n\n        \n        <div class=\"text \">\n            <h2>The emotional stress and the organisation<\/h2><div class=\"main-text\"><p>In advance, there is room for so many concerns. And that\u2019s understandable! Not knowing how things will go, can be, as I said, quite scary. What really helps, is to find out what exactly worries you. Then you can create a strategy to deal with your worries. For some, there might not even be a reason and the fear will go away as soon as you realise that. And keep in mind: It\u2019s okay to have concerns, that will not stop you from going your way.<\/p>\n<\/div>        <\/div><!-- .text -->\n\n        <div class=\"slider-text-swiper  rund \">\n            <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                                <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"ai-modified-media ai-modified-media--slider-text\" >\n                                    <span class=\"slider-text__image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"806\" src=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-768x806.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-768x806.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-286x300.jpg 286w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-976x1024.jpg 976w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-1463x1536.jpg 1463w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-scaled.jpg 1951w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-ketut-subiyanto-4247730-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1433-460x483.jpg 460w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"><\/span>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n            <div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .slider -->\n        \n\n    <\/div><!-- .content -->\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_6a3f444274f006462a0ca08909ac995f\" class=\"slider-text rund\">\n    \n    <div class=\"content\">\n\n        \n        <div class=\"text text-reverse\">\n            <h2>Plan your family visits<\/h2><div class=\"main-text\"><p>Even if you can\u2019t wait to live on your own, finally having the freedom of doing whatever you want whenever you want, homesickness might catch up in the least expected moments. If you are used to your family being around, make sure to keep in touch. Plan your first visit in advance, call them and talk about all the new things you experience. That is not only a good way for you to process, but it also might help your family get used to you being elsewhere. Also resolving family stressors before actually leaving home will help you stay connected and feel supported. Even if your family is in a totally different place than you are.<\/p>\n<\/div>        <\/div><!-- .text -->\n\n        <div class=\"slider-text-swiper  rund slider-reverse\">\n            <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                                <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"ai-modified-media ai-modified-media--slider-text\" >\n                                    <span class=\"slider-text__image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-768x563.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-768x563.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-300x220.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-1024x751.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-1536x1126.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-monstera-5996855-scaled-aspect-ratio-1700-1246-460x337.jpg 460w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"><\/span>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n            <div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .slider -->\n        \n\n    <\/div><!-- .content -->\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And how to cope with all the new things around you on your own? For a new place to feel like home, it takes time, maybe just a few days, maybe months. But you can certainly speed that up. Making new friends is a great way to really arrive somewhere and thanks to our FIZZy community, it\u2019s more than easy to meet new people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_9a9b0d0d360e34e30eb4dd89770a6315\" class=\"slider-text rund\">\n    \n    <div class=\"content\">\n\n        \n        <div class=\"text \">\n            <div class=\"main-text\"><p>Getting to know the area and exploring the city is just as helpful! And to make your new apartment feel like home you can decorate it just as you want to. Maybe bring a few items that remind you of home. You can even integrate habits from home into your new life. Brewing the same tea as your mom does every morning or playing basketball in the park as you used to do with your brother? Little things like these will help you to create a routine and allow you to combine new experiences with personal safe spaces. And if things are overwhelming in general, routines can often carry us through chaotic times.<\/p>\n<\/div>        <\/div><!-- .text -->\n\n        <div class=\"slider-text-swiper  rund \">\n            <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                                <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"ai-modified-media ai-modified-media--slider-text\" >\n                                    <span class=\"slider-text__image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"850\" src=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-768x850.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-768x850.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-271x300.jpeg 271w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-925x1024.jpeg 925w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-1388x1536.jpeg 1388w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-scaled.jpeg 1850w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image00003-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1511-460x509.jpeg 460w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"><\/span>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n            <div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .slider -->\n        \n\n    <\/div><!-- .content -->\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_43c83293107b628826f94391652cb55d\" class=\"slider-text rund\">\n    \n    <div class=\"content\">\n\n        \n        <div class=\"text text-reverse\">\n            <h2>Okay, let\u2019s talk about organisation!<\/h2><div class=\"main-text\"><p>No matter if you move to a new country or a new city, whether you attend a university or start an apprenticeship. There will be documents to read and contracts to sign. Create a place to store all the important sheets and information in one place. This can be a folder on your laptop or one on your desk. Just make sure that you know where all the stuff is! Handing in documents often requires punctuality. And in addition to a tidy folder an updated To Do list can really help with that. And if you tend to forget about your To-Do list: Place a reminder somewhere you will definitely see it or set an alarm on your phone. Check twice if you got the date right and if everything is filled in properly. (I\u2019m sure you get to hear it often, but\u2026) Better safe than sorry.<\/p>\n<\/div>        <\/div><!-- .text -->\n\n        <div class=\"slider-text-swiper  rund slider-reverse\">\n            <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                                <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"ai-modified-media ai-modified-media--slider-text\" >\n                                    <span class=\"slider-text__image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"883\" src=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-768x883.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-768x883.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-261x300.jpg 261w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-891x1024.jpg 891w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-1336x1536.jpg 1336w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-scaled.jpg 1782w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-600x690.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-300x345.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-fizz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pexels-polina-zimmerman-3747137-scaled-aspect-ratio-1365-1569-460x529.jpg 460w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"><\/span>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n            <div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .slider -->\n        \n\n    <\/div><!-- .content -->\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_9370490b418c814e050b46cb3bb2ff3b\" class=\"slider-text rund\">\n    \n    <div class=\"content\">\n\n        \n        <div class=\"text \">\n            <h2>Another whole theme-field of \u201corganisation\u201d is finance.<\/h2><div class=\"main-text\"><p>I know, hardly anything is more annoying than thinking about money.
