Has anyone had any experience with "People to People" student trips? My 14 yr old son got a letter for France, Italy, Austria next summer. I believe it's expensive, but I'm considering it. Any input would be appreciated.
Loved it, LOVED IT. Lost my virginity...the sleep arrangements were quite liberal. My folks were sold a bill of goods. LOL Once we got over there the rules got relaxed....fast.
My advice is this:
1. Tell your kid the reality that heterosexual men who are circumcised are NOT getting aids. BUT, they could get the herp, so wear a condom.
2. $20 in Austria goes a LOT farther than it does in France or Italy when you are getting pussy, if you catch my drift.
3. It's not gay to let an effeminate Italian guy blow you, especially if he doesn't speak'a-tha-engalish, if you know what I mean.
4. This is THE most important advice to give your kid...

symbol does NOT mean the same thing here as it does over there, and when you flash it to a dude across the bar (even if the Cats are on TV), it WILL bring attention that you may not want.
