Well , if you go , great , but don't you think you're trying to run before you can walk so to speak? You've talked about how hard you find it to go to new places and I can totally empathise with that , so why don't you start off with a weekend somewhere closer to home?

Thats a question of the individual, from personal experience I would disagree but thats not to say its the right way for evereyone. I went backpacking for 6 weeks solo in europe and at the time I had never lived away from home, been abroad, or on a trip on my own and I also suffered with anxiety attacks (i was whisked to Hospital in Dubline once courtesy of said). I was way outside my comfort zone but once you've done it your comfort zone is a heck of a lot bigger than it was before. But thats just me i throw myself in at the deep end so i can't chicken out!

I did something like that myself (on a much lesser scale) when I was 19. I suffered from social phobia , but went on a trip to Belgium (to watch Leeds United in the semi finals of the European Cup) all by myself. I shared a room with a complete stranger (an older woman) and met a man who became my boyfriend for a while.
