China has continuously provided international students studying abroad, whose number has mounted to over 2 million in the past four years. While even-more people paid attention to their learning difficulties, seldom did they notice the issues such as identity loss. In this essay, the author discussed the concept about culture, language, identity and difference, the relationship between them on the basis of own experience as an international student in Australia. Facing the unfamiliar environment as well as the challenges, international students may accept the differences, adapt the attitudes and expand the horizon to embrace new culture.
