So I obviously want to travel. I want to see the world and I don'tknow how to do this. I definitely do not come from the best of households nor are we well set off. I am just starting my freshman year of college is there any advicethat could be given to me?

I am also on my mobile so there will be some mistakes.

Here's my best piece of advice (in regards to studying abroad): apply for your study abroad program.

For the most part, it is as simple as that. I have many friends that say they are so jealous of me because I got to spend some time studying abroad in SEA, then when I ask them why they didn't do an exchange they can't give me a real excuse.

The application process and everything was really straight forward, and the only fee I paid above and beyond what I would have paid if I stayed at my home school was my flight over there and all the extra trips I took.

I don't come from the best of households either, and I also go to a more expensive school. That said I was able to travel a lot while on exchange because I worked a ton during high school and my summers off. See if your school has bursaries (aka free money for poor people) and apply for them each year because that will help pay for shit.

My school also has an exchange bursary, and I received a decent chunk of change from that. When you subtract the extra travel costs off of the amount I received, there's still some money leftover, meaning I actually made money by studying abroad lol.

tl;dr you can easily do it, so just do it. No excuses.

Thank you, I'vebeen looking for stuff like that. Once when got pulled over this police officer searched my car then asked what I wanted to do with my life and I told her and she told me the same thing. I'll be looking to that though thank you.

Is there anything about specific places in Europei should be worried about? Money wise or traveling wise or people wise, anything.

Western Europe is expensive. Eastern Europe not so much.
If you're from a poor family and from a third world country, exchange rates will kill your budget.
