Personally, I think the hardest part of traveling would be navigation. You don’t want to spend money on a trip and time planning out an itinerary only to get lost. Understanding the public transportation system in a different country and having a sense of direction when walking around the streets would help save tons of time and energy.
Some basic preliminary research before deciding to go abroad might be helpful. Understanding another country’s culture and investigating any potential issues there could make the difference between a good experience and a bad one.
When deciding what country to study abroad in, I would do some preliminary research on the treatment of LGBTQ community members in that particular country and factor that into my overall decision. While fortunately more and more countries are becoming accepting of all people, there are still some countries with more conservative views.
