Only one of my kids traveled abroad (3 weeks in Greece), and another had one cancelled due to Covid (New Zealand), but I know students who have, and have heard nothing but great things. My 20 year old actually booked herself a 3 day trip to Italy over thanksgiving to visit her friend in Florence who was on study abroad because of how much fun her friend was having. My 18 year old goes to college 12 hours away, dropped her off in the beginning of August, didn’t see her until the end of November, she’s heading back tomorrow and we will see her in May. It goes by so fast. I’ve heard the phrase “life changing” so many times with study abroad. I’m an anxious person, I start getting cranky weeks before a simple vacation, so I understand how you are feeling. I think this trip could help you conquer some anxiety in the future.
