when you are back home with a new experience under your belt. Traveling rearranges your DNA. Think about the new person you will be.

It will take the stress out of it, because you will know that no matter what happens it will be worth it.

Agree with giving yourself time to chill. I have traveled alone all over Mexico, Central and South America as well as this country. You have the best experiences not rushing around cramming as much in as possible, but giving yourself time to become part of the place you visit.
