Planning Ahead to get The Most out of your Language Travel

Plan ahead to make sure you not only have a basic agenda for your time abroad, but you are also prepared for the activities you will likely be doing. It is important to make the most of your time. 
Of course you will not want to plan something for every single hour of your day, but knowing what some of your activity options are before you go is very beneficial. 

Plans can always be changed on the go; wondering what you should do in your available time is a waste of that time.
Start out by first asking yourself what your goals are for your trip and what you would wish
to accomplish. 

Are your reasons for going abroad to study purely personal ones, or are they
employment or education related? 

You can tailor your free time based on these kinds of activities. Of course, don't forget to leave some time for your study and homework, since this is the main reason of your trip. Try to find out ahead of time how much academic class time you will have once you begin your study abroad, leave some hours for practice and self-study, and then use the rest of the time to get out and get immersed in your surroundings learning as much as possible from them.

A great way to find out more detailed information about planning your trip would be to get in contact with others that have already taken similar study abroad trips.
