Some ways to communicate with parents whilst overseas

Students are you missing your parents back home? It is ok for you to miss them, but don't forget them. Here's a few ways of communicating with them which will not break the bank.

Send them some packages
Are you good with crafts? Do you have the time to make stuff? If so you could send them a homemade craft or two. Parcels at Australia post to send overseas are expensive so the smaller the better.

Skype or other technologies (make frequent communications with them)
Communicating to them frequently about things will put everyone's mind at ease. Tell them about how you feel or some interesting things that happened during your stay. A handwritten letter is always nice and you can buy stationery at Daiso.

Also do send them some pictures of your surroundings. Parents are always wanting to find out these things.

Learning to care for them
Remind them of important things. Make sure that you write it down. There are many apps for this sort of thing

Do tell them as to when and how long your uni holidays are. They may want to visit you then

Be honest
Be honest with your parents. If you fail something or are not coping well at uni tell them. They probably won't get mad at you but they'll understand.

If you tell lies then parents will find out one way or the other. Trust me I have been there before.

I hope that you do find these ways useful. If there are any other ways, let us know in the comments below.
