Embark on your first international trip with confidence! This session is designed to equip you with packing tips, strategies to soothe first-time travel jitters, and inspirational tales from fellow Ducks who've recently completed their maiden voyages with success. While good planning is key to easing pre-travel anxiety, it's also important to embrace the unexpected - often the source of memorable adventures.
