I'm sure that many people who work outstation would have experienced it at least once!

Any advice on how to deal with homesickness?

It is most common for those who attached with their family members. They have a feeling of loneliness every time. specially they miss their home food. Having good friends who can be fun loving will make you feel less about home.

When I'm in hostel my mother ask me all the time when will you come home again, when I went back to home she say like why did you came here and waste time. So I believe it's not about place it's all about relation. If you be with your mom then there is no word about homesick because mom makes house into home.

True Assassin,it's not about the place,it's about the relationship,bond and emotion.

Yeah Adiza, when you eat the hostel foods that time you will understand the value of home food and your mother's cooking.
