Studying abroad is an adventure -- but it is only the type of adventure you shape it to be. When I began my studying abroad semester in London, I wrote down all the things I would want to do. At first it was only a list of monuments and things I needed to eat - the typical things you need to do while you are in Europe and traveling.
About a week before I left, I was discussing my trip and my list with my father (who frequently travels internationally). As he added so many more to my list from his own experiences he made a point that I took to heart. He said that not only was travel an opportunity to see and do thing but it was a time to just do the things I wanted to do in my lifetime.
So for this very reason when one of my good friends jokingly asked me if I wanted to go skydiving in Berlin - I took them be surprise and booked an appointment to do just that.
I do not regret it for a second and would do it again in a heartbeat!
So take risks! Kick that wimpy bucket list to the curb and do the things that you said you always wish you would!
