What age... by xpirdwingz on 01-08-2005 at 06:10 PM

I was just wondering at what age would your parents let you go abroad on your own? And under what circumstances?


RE: What age... by saralk on 01-08-2005 at 06:12 PM

Im going abroad with my friends once ive done my GCSEs, so i'll be 16 then (we are going to Budapest). And ive been on school trips before, but Budapest will be the first time without adults

I went to the US alone, when I was 14. I stopped at Brazil, first... Didn't understand a thing, and almost got left behind. :dodgy:

Some responsible parents you've got there....:lol:

I went to a Swiss Camp in...well...Switzerland :P for Swiss citizens (my mom's ex-husband [not my dad] was swiss, so her and I are swiss citezens too now :P) in 2002 (when I was 13). It was kinda cool, and I got to see Expo 2002.

Yeah, it'd be much more easier to convince if I had people going with me, but it's kind of a personal visit plus I don't have that many close girlfriends like I use to :(
