We’ve reached the final days before takeoff for my semester abroad and they’ve been full of bittersweet goodbyes. Friends, family, and strangers alike have been incredibly generous with advice and gifts to help me prepare.
In getting ready for the next three and a half months, I’ve learned several things about preparing for a long trip: get your paperwork done early, not just on time; make sure you have any and all necessary documentation with you for your flight; and use your resources! My most valuable resources were those who have been to Budapest through the same or a similar program. Believe it or not, most people are happy to help in any way possible.
As I say goodbye, I’m thinking of the thank-yous and postcards I have to write for all of the wonderful people who have helped me out before I’ve even left the country! To all of you: Köszönöm! And see you in January!
