Homesickness can be a terrible feeling for anyone who travels away from their home town, country or simply away from the house they live in for a period of time. It is a strong feeling of wanting to go back to your own places very much. Some people get homesick easily while never experience it at all.
Different people deal with homesickness in different ways. Some ring home and have a chat with the people who they think ‘home’ – often their mum or dad. This may be a good idea for you to feel that you are not . It reminds you that home and the people you love are still there and that you will see them soon. However, it can make the homesickness even . By talking to people from home, it can make you miss them more! It can make you want to be home even more and make you realise you miss your loved ones. For this very reason, some people find better not to contact home but to let the feeling pass by doing fun activities. This can not only work as a good way to lonely feelings that homesickness can cause, but can also work well towards helping you get used to the place which you are living or staying in. Reminding yourself that where you are can make you see the bigger picture; that home is great, but where I am right now is also great different reasons!
In German there is a(n) which is quite opposite to homesickness and that is ‘Fernweh’. This means the feeling of wanting to get away and see new places.

In the darkness, the boys could hardly see through the windows. “We thought we had to get this man out of there now, or he was going to die,” says Haire.
He and Sawin jumped into the cold water and hard to the sinking car. Inside, Miguel Hernandez was holding the steering wheel and looking up in fear.

Xi was a sports lover and he used to playing football very much. And now he is also one of the football fans in China. He thinks we should not only care about the national team(国家队), but also pay much more to the training of the young players. So he visited Europe(欧洲) this year, he especially watched China-Germany(德国) youth football match. Although the team lost the game in the end, he still encouraged the young players to train harder and give up. He told them that they would be the keys to China’s football.
Our life is just China’s football. As Xi once said in Shanghai, “China’s football dream looks far away but we cannot stop. You might make your dreams one day only if you keep dreaming.” So there is excuse for us to give up our dreams, and we must try our to realize them.
