Study overseas can be the adventure of a lifetime, and the majority of these experiences are healthy and safe. But, unless some simple precautions are taken, a young person living without a parent in a foreign country can encounter cultural disorientaion and real, physical dangers. While atuo and motorcycle accidents are a primary cause for concern, there are a host of other factors that need to be considered, preferably, well in advance of a student's departure.
