When it comes to relocating for work or studies – the adjustment period can be daunting. Between finding your new go-to grocery store, familiarising yourself with the new transport routes, and trying to feng shui your new space to feel a bit more like home – there’s a lot to juggle and navigate when taking the leap for an exciting new chapter.
Moving to a new place with new faces can also feel quite isolating at first while finding your feet and new social circles. This is where smartphones and devices can help bridge that gap a bit to help you touch base with home and feel a little less alone during the adjustment stage. HUAWEI’s MeeTime allows you to stay connected with your loved ones with a simple tap of your screen or button on your HUAWEI smartphone, MatePad, or MateBook.
The MeeTime video calling app allows HUAWEI device owners to enjoy Full HD video calling at a resolution of up to 1080 pixels with a frame rate of 30 frames per second. This gives you a crisp, vibrant, and smooth moving visual of you and your loved ones to each other – even when far apart. You’re also able to ensure you look your best with the HUAWEI MeeTime one-touch beauty settings and share your screen and highlights of your day and explorations with the built-in two-way screen sharing function.
These are some of the ways HUAWEI’s MeeTime make staying connected to your loved ones back home a seamless experience, here are four other times video calling can help you ground yourself while making the big move:
The interior design hunt session
When trying to find the ideal throw pillow or houseplant that will carefully give you a balance of zen meets homely in your new space, it’s sometimes best to consult the people who know you best. A quick video call on MeeTime with your besties while browsing home décor stores can help you choose where best you should opt for neutrals and where to add pops of colour accents to match the ambience you wish to set in your new place.
Comparing your go-to essential items with your hometown faves
Another unexpected hurdle few consider when taking the big leap for ex-pat living is finding your new essential go-to items. From your go-to moisturisers to soaps and sanitary products – it can be hard to find products that closely match your faves from back home. A quick video call on MeeTime to your parents, siblings, or family can help you compare the products based on the details on the packaging.
Virtual day trip outings with your besties
Catching up with your loved ones back home don’t always need to be pragmatic or with a checklist in mind. Sometimes to stave off the isolation blues, it’s nice to loop your hometown crew into the little discoveries you’re making in your new home away from home. Whether it’s a picnic in a peaceful park you found or stumbling across buskers while café hopping – looping in your friends over video call can help you share the moment and feel connected even while apart.
The dinner time blues
The end of days during the adjustment phase can feel lonely at first, especially after decompressing from the errands that kept you busy in the day. Having a virtual dinner hang out with your loved ones back home can give you a sense of comfort over your chosen meal. Propping your HUAWEI smartphone or MateBook across from you as you catch up with your family, friends, or long-distanced partner helps to fill your space with warmth and familiarity. You can even coordinate your meal options and share the recipe with the MeeTime screen share function while prepping for your virtual dinner and catch each other up on your days while cooking.
Thanks to advancements in smart device technology and video call technology like HUAWEI’s MeeTime, taking a leap with your next career or study move doesn’t have to be second-guessed but can be done with comfort and ease. Download the HUAWEI MeeTime app to your HUAWEI smartphone and device via the HUAWEI AppGallery and gift yourself the ease of connectivity with your loved ones so you can explore more with love.
