When you are considering spending a semester abroad as a student there are so many things to consider. What should you take with you? Where will you live? How will you get around? What things are there to see? What will you do if you get lonely? And just how cheaply can you call home?

A new life abroad

When you are far from home you can start to miss your friends and family. Even though you know they are just a phone call away, you can feel an overwhelming need to hear a friendly voice. This is especially true if you are feeling a little homesick, or if things haven’t gone quite as smoothly as you had imagined. Even though we are living in the Internet age, when you are in a foreign country you don’t always have cheap and easy access to the Internet or telephone calls. Getting service for your mobile phone can be expensive and in some countries you will need to sign up for a long-term plan. This doesn’t really suit the life of a student living abroad! 

Even if you are only abroad for a short time, roaming on your own mobile phone service can run up huge bills for just a few minutes of talk time. You can probably keep in touch on Facebook and there’s always free wifi at McDonalds if you can find one, but not everyone is comfortable calling home from a public place. You want to use your phone as you did back home.

A tip for staying in touch

There is a way to call home really cheap. Rebtel offers rock bottom prices to 50+ countries with a variety of ways to call. You can call other Rebtel users for free and you can make cheap calls from landlines or smartphones.
