Don't Worry Catherine!
It is so funny, because I live almost the same thing as you. Me too, I want to leave right away, but because of the money I just cant. I thnik I will be ok to leave around the 15 of July. Me too, I only have one thing in mind, and it's hard to continue to live when your mind is not here! But for me, my parents are ok with the ideal, my mother said to me, if you don't go, you will regret it for the rest of your life! They are probably scared too, but they don't show it to me! My father would prefer if I had a job before I go, but I told him, don't worry I will find somethnig, if I don't find anything I will come back sooner, that's it! You are so lucky to go in 2 weeks! I was suppose to go on vacations in May for a week, but I want to leave in July, then I won't go, because of the money. 3 months, it's not the end of the world! Don't worry Catherine, I am sure it will be just fine.
When do you think you are gonna leave? Maybe we can help one and other if we are there at the same time?! Talk to you soon!
