Dear Peter,

I know you are feeling lonely in the new city away from the family, I want you to be strong and overcome this situation. Recently, I heard this from many of our friends, Who moved to different city for either job or studies. There are many reasons for this feeling, one among that is missing home, Which makes you feel that way. Another reason is as it is new place, we wouldnt have any friends to go around and spend time

I have comeup with few ideas to overcome this problem. First idea is to start making connection with people around your new home or in your college so that you feel better. Second idea is to engage yourself in reading books, which is your best hobby. I even heard that there are few book clubs so you have jus join in that and make friends from that club.

Finally, try to follow these ideas and let me know the results.

All the best,

Keerthi
