It's not ridiculous to be panicing or terrified about that. Going abroad is a scary thing, especially when you're going to a country where you don't speak the language at all.

It may not be the best advice, but before my trip this summer and last summer, I pushed away the negatives and instead just focused on how much fun I was going to have.
