Many people grew up only knowing trips that involved visiting relatives. Or, there was the occasional road trip to an amusement park. But then, if you're lucky, you get an opportunity to do a study trip in college. The idea of being in the stratosphere for 6 hours straight can be terrifying as you venture off to an unknown part of the world. Some things you may be thinking:

1. OMG I'm going to <insert country here>!

2. Holy Crap I'm Going to be on a Plane for 6 Hours.

3. But It's OK! Because I'm Going To <insert country here>

8. There's something beyond first class?

9. I Feel Like I'm in The Scene From Rugrats In Paris When They're On the Plane.


10. That Was a Good Series....

11. Yay! I Made It!

To say the least, we were not invited back"
