Well, one of the most difficult challenges I have faced was adapting to a new culture when I moved to Dashkent from a smaller city three years ago. And the life in a new place was much faster and the people were very new and diverse and the city itself was larger and more complex. I found it difficult to adapt to a new culture and their customs and also it was very difficult to make new friends or communicate with new people who were who were populating in our neighborhood. At that time I felt overwhelmed and homesick. This challenge forced me to discover my new abilities, how to overcome difficulties with with possible solutions. The first thing I had to do as a time was to learn and their behaviors and the culture navigate with unfamiliar things. And I was able to step out of my comfort zone and become more independent. Such kind of challenges are completely significant for humans as they strive. They help to discover our new abilities and make for us to be more independent to new cultures. People will have more experience about the life.
