I studied abroad for four years as a domestic undergraduate and never celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival at home, so although I am now abroad, I personally feel there is no essential difference.
?Fan Longfei said,?In fact, the elements of the festival are the same as in China. Contact your family, then have dinner with classmates and friends, sing karaoke, and eat moon cakes.
The Chinese Student Union holds a Mid-Autumn Festival party every year. People who don't go to the party usually go to Chinese restaurants for dinner with friends, or cook or eat hot pot together at home.
We saw mooncakes on sale in Chinese supermarkets during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, but I personally don’t have much enthusiasm for eating mooncakes.
International students are very enthusiastic about eating hot pot because it is more convenient and does not require superb cooking skills.
? Wang Zi, He Runze, Shen Yan Ohio University, USA Location: Athens, USA "Keywords: friends, homesickness" ?Although I can't reunite with my family during the Mid-Autumn Festival, they always give me blessings, and I am very happy to be able to make video calls with them often.

When it comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, mooncakes are always indispensable. The small snacks symbolize happy reunion and express endless thoughts.
?When we first came to the United States to study (Weibo), our parents were always worried that we wouldn’t be able to eat the delicious food from our hometown.
In fact, every year on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, various mooncakes are put on the market in Chinatown in the United States.
?Shen Zhen, who studied abroad at Ohio University, recalled the first Mid-Autumn Festival spent in a small town in the United States, with a happy smile still on his face.
?I went home from get out of class that day as usual, but unexpectedly received a cardboard box big enough to fit a person inside.
Later, my roommates helped me unpack it. It was full of mooncakes, snacks sent from my hometown, and home-made sausages.
At that moment, we knew that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon.

Three or five friends went up to the mountain to look into the distance, and shared their hometown food bought from a Chinese food store to relieve the pain of homesickness.

?Wang Chao contacts his parents once or twice a week on average. The last video call with his parents was last weekend.
This Mid-Autumn Festival, he will video chat with his parents while they are having dinner to express his blessings and thoughts. What he wants to say to his parents most is: "I hope you take care of your health and don't miss me too much when I am studying in a foreign country."
