There are no direct flights from China to the Mayo Clinic.

Lu Chen flew to Chicago first.

Arrive in Chicago and transfer.

Mayo Clinic's headquarters is in Rochester, Minnesota.

Chicago to Rochester is less than an hour's flight time.

Although connecting flights at U.S. airports is very convenient, for Lu Chen, who arrived in the U.S. for the first time, he had to take out his luggage when going through customs and then check it in for the next flight.

Lu Chen spent a lot of time on the way.

At about eight o'clock in the evening, Lu Chen finally arrived in Rochester.

…

Mayo Clinic is headquartered in Rochester, Minnesota, and later opened two large medical centers in Sttsdale, Arizona and Javille, Florida.

There are many clinics dotted around the three large medical centers.

These clinics and three large medical centers form the main part of Mayo's medical system.

After getting off the plane, Lu Chen found that Rochester's airport was very small, even far less than the size of some second- and third-tier city airports in China.

There are no hotels near the airport, and even taxis are few.

There is no possibility of waving at the roadside to hail a taxi like in China.

According to the previous agreement, Yu Weiguang will come to pick him up at the airport.

Lu Chen found a temporary fast food restaurant.

After waiting for about half an hour, Yu Weiguang arrived late.

"Viagra, if you don't come to pick me up, I really don't know how to get there."

Lu Chen said awkwardly.

After arriving for the first time and facing a completely different environment, Lu Chen felt an unusual sense of intimacy after seeing Yu Weiguang.

"Hey, it's not that exaggerated." After receiving Lu Chen, Yu Weiguang took out his mobile phone, "Although it's not easy to call a taxi here, booking a shuttle online is very reliable."

Yu Weiguang helped Lu Chen carry a bag of luggage.

While booking a car online, he told Lu Chen about the local customs and customs.

Rochester is a small city with no subway and many bus routes, but the frequency is not intensive.

"Lu Chen, the winter here in Rochester is long and cold, so it is most convenient to buy a car if possible. At least so far, a Chinese driver's license is legal to drive in Minnesota."

"The key is that gasoline here is super cheap, roads are basically free, and the cost of maintaining a car is low."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Viagra, why didn't you get a car?"

"Hey, I'm only here for a year." Yu Weiguang shook his head, "In half a year, I'll be leaving, so there won't be any trouble. Many Chinese people who stay here for a long time have temporarily bought a cheap car. Transportation by car.”

"By the way, Viagra, where do I live?" Lu Chen still prefers such a question.

The type of accommodation is nothing more than a hotel, a rental apartment or a hoe.

"Lu Chen, you are so lucky." Yu Weiguang smiled, "I live in an American hoe now. It has three floors. The landlord lives on the first floor, and the second and third floors are all rented out. Now the third floor is rented out. There happens to be an empty room on the first floor. I’ll take you there to check it out. If you think it’s okay, you can stay there.”

"Viagra, you live here, of course I will follow you." Lu Chen said with a smile, "But the rent won't be very expensive, right?"

In the next two years, the expenses here will be a lot of money.

Lu Chen had made some money before, but he still had to save his words.

After all, he came here as a visiting scholar without any salary or remuneration.

Yu Weiguang smiled and shook his head: "This kind of big hoe is equivalent to shared housing. It is not very expensive. It costs about 300 US dollars a month. If you want to live in a single apartment, it is expensive. The rent is about 500-1000 US dollars/ Months don’t wait.”

"Okay, then let's go to Viagra." Lu Chen nodded.

"Well, I'll take you to see it."

After a while, the car I booked online arrived.

Yu Weiguang took Lu Chen to the big hoe where he was currently renting.

…

The landlord is a middle-aged American, broad and fat, and looks very kind.

He took Lu Chen to the room on the third floor.

The room was fully furnished and cleaned very well.

"That's it."

Lu Chen paid half a year's rent first.

It's not far from the Mayo Medical Center, and it takes about ten or twenty minutes to walk.

"There are still a few Chinese people living here." Yu Weiguang introduced, "There are people from Magic City, Kyoto, and Western Sichuan. We all get together occasionally."

It was already half past eleven at night when Lu Chen finished everything.

The fatigue along the way and the anxiety about transfers, check-in, etc. disappeared as I fell asleep.

However, jet lag is really an important issue that cannot be avoided.

Lu Chen was very tired now and his eyelids were clenched, but his mind was clear, but he just couldn't fall asleep.

I finally fell asleep at about 5 o'clock, and when I opened my eyes, it was 10 noon US time.

At this time, Lu Chen felt his stomach growling.

Yu Weiguang was still at work, so Lu Chen needed to go out to find food by himself.

The most useful thing to use when going out in the United States is Google Maps, and it still has Chinese pronunciation.

After walking for about 30 minutes, Lu Chen found a large supermarket under the guidance of the map.

When I got inside, I found that it was full of daily necessities and no food...

Lu Chen was a little desperate. Will he have to cook by himself in the future?

At this time, Lu Chen felt like an animal separated from the group. UU Reading www.uukaｎshu.ｔｔ

The term "foraging" is really appropriate.

...

Finally at about 11:30 in the afternoon.

Yu Weiguang called and asked Lu Chen to have lunch together at noon.

Lunch was finally settled, and Lu Chen was full of ecstasy.

But when he saw the food in front of him, he was a little confused.

"Brother Wei, that's it???"

Two bags of braised beef noodles, instant noodles!

Yu Weiguang had an ungrateful expression, "Lu Chen, this is what I usually don't want to eat! Seeing that you are here, I will give you a bag."

Lu Chen's mind was full of question marks, is life so hard?

Yu Weiguang had already made his own noodles, and said with a bitter face: "Besides the language, the most difficult thing about coming here is eating. You can see that I have lost a lot of weight."

Yu Weiguang compared his body.

"Here in America, we eat sandwiches, salads, pizza, cold water, ice water, and all kinds of food that we are not used to. Oh, and there are also undercooked steaks with blood streaks."

"In China, we basically drink hot water, but since the moment you set foot on American soil, we basically drink cold water and ice water."

Lu Chen still doesn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence.

It was not until he started working at the Mayo Clinic that he realized the preciousness of these two bowls of instant noodles.

In the next few days, Lu Chen was still adjusting to the jet lag.

Yes, it was jet lag!

Lu Chen's condition was that he couldn't sleep at night and didn't dare to sleep during the day.

This situation lasted for three days.

Until the fourth day, Lu Chen drank some beer at night.

It was 7 o'clock the next morning when he woke up, and the jet lag was finally adjusted!

After the preliminary work was completed.

Lu Chen submitted his acceptance letter and officially began to study at the Mayo Clinic.
