route planning. having access to emergency funds. correct equipment. preferably being part of an organized group. precautions against malaria and other diseases.
ensuring all travel documentation is accurate, researching the countries together, and making sure they are aware of different laws and cultural differences.
correct equipment, financial assistance, helping with sourcing accommodation.
making them aware of as much as possible about where they are going in terms of points of contact if they are in trouble.
both my children are extremely independent and have visited many places with both of us, so they know a lot about the process, but i would still hope to be involved in helping them.
encouragement and help with organization
always follow your instinct; if it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it.
supporting with planning and discussion of options.
i would ensure they were fully prepared mentally and physically so they could cope with traveling in unknown countries.
