Need Life Advice

Hello all, 

Currently a junior at a nontarget heading to an EB this summer, due to taking lots of AP classes in HS, I am taking one virtual class fall 2022, none spring 2023. planning on recruiting for PE. Any suggestions on what I should do in this year. Traveling is on the top of the agenda (Europe preferably) but would love to hear insight on if I should travel fall semester and start early or if anybody had any other cool ideas, to get ahead thanks!

Make sure you lock up a full time offer first, but the world is your beer garden after that. I’d travel a ton, but do some out there shit man. Some travel ideas: African safari, hike in the mountains (maybe Everest base camp or Kilimanjaro with a guide), go be a ski instructor for a few months if that’s your thing, live in a random country and immerse yourself (spend 3 months in Brazil surfing or in Thailand practicing Muay Thai). Spend some time learning a cool new skill that you’ve always thought would be fun: playing an instrument, dive into chess, learn a martial art, cook elaborate meals, anything that excites you. Oh, and read some interest books as well. Have fun!
