Hello, I'm new on here. Just found the site but it looks really interesting.
My much beloved granddaughter whom I am very close to has decided to leave her very promising job and take a year off to go travelling. She's young (23) and I know so many young people do this and I used to be a keen traveller myself. But I can't help feeling this horrible dread that something will happen to her while she is away. She's travelling on her own and although she's very sensible..I'm terrified I admit. I wouldn't dream of raining on her enthusiasm though but doesn't anyone have any experience of this? Or advice on how to handle it? Or tips for keeping her safe I could subtly pass on? Her mum (my daughter) definitely doesn't have the same adventurous gene - made my parenting much easier in many ways! I do see a lot of myself in my granddaughter so maybe I know all too well the scrapes she could find herself in.
