Answer 6

The knowing that your life path has a learning experience in store for you, the wisdom that will come after the experience, and living in the harsh but sweet reality of the experienced moment... When the wisdom is gained it feels very much like that day you woke up and felt older. (I don't mean your birthday)

Answer 7

I spent three years overseas.

English is a common language in most parts of the world.

The Culture will take a bit getting used to.

The secret like anything else to not to over-prepare. I would just recommended take extra toilet articles and some basic OTC stuff like Pep-to Bis-mo (you will need it).

God will guide you.

Do not worry.

God love you!
