If you've ever spent a semester abroad, it's very likely that you became accustomed to the new way of life you'd adopted during your stay--something that has inevitably complicated your subsequent departure. You may have been forced to return and readjust to your former routines and lifestyle, but that doesn't mean you have to leave behind everything you fell in love with during your time away. After visiting some of the most magnificent monuments and cities the world has to offer, it might seem impossible to find adventure back at home, but it's there.

You just have to look a little harder in perhaps some unexpected places:

1. Apply to the Disney College Program.

If you're craving something that's going to be somewhat similar to your abroad university experience, this might be your best bet. Unless you're from Anaheim, California or Orlando, Florida, you'll be away from home and making magical memories everyday while working for the Mouse - an environment just designed for adventure. You'll have the option to take classes if you'd like and you can spend as much of your free time in the Disney Parks as you want - it doesn't get much better than that! (Plus you'll get paid, which you maybe didn't get to do abroad if you didn't have a work visa).

2. Check out Trip Advisor.

You've probably made the mistake of maintaining the mindset that there's absolutely nothing to do where you live, but here's what you don't know: you only feel that way because you live there. Seriously. Play tourist and take a gander on Trip Advisor for various shops and restaurants and activities you didn't even realize were already at your very fingertips. You won't be bored for a long time once you do.

3. Explore local towns/cities.

Always remember: it doesn't need to be Paris or London or Tokyo or Rome to be worth seeing. If you have a town or city nearby with a lot of history and/or beautiful sights, check it out. Discover every beaten path, every nook and cranny. You just might be surprised by what you find and fall in love with a world just outside your backyard.

4. Take a hike. Go camping.

It's impossible to not find adventure in the great outdoors. Leave civilization behind for a few hours or days and you won't be disappointed.

Trust me, you'll find that feeling that you're looking for.
