Let's talk about travelling alone before we dive in. I'm curious how you feel about setting off on your own.
“Have you ever travelled somewhere completely alone? How did it actually feel?”

“What's one situation abroad that would genuinely make you feel vulnerable?”
Fresh topic questions — none repeat until you have seen them all
