Get aware of the culture,

Fully explore the culture of your host country. Don`t concentrate on your safe, just take into account the surroundings. Go and learn the city yourself. If you don`t want to do this alone, invite your friend. But you should agree to speak the foreign language only. Moreover, you can make friends with locals. Being in France, I found out that lots of people want to learn English. And I offered local to speak English to them while they speak French to me. You know, it works! You can visit some interesting and famous places with locals, have coffee together or just go to the park.

Make notes of your trip

It`s obvious you`d like to share the experience, emotions and feelings of your trip. But very often you just forget some moments and you have nothing to tell your parents and friends. It`s a good idea to have a notebook to write interesting places you`ve visited, people you`ve met, things you`ve seen. Moreover, you can note even famous people popular in your host country. Add your feelings and emotions. There are things I`ve forgotten from Paris, but when I open my notebook everything comes to my mind again and I feel the same emotions once again.
