Alena on Preparation

Hi all - it's Alena - a chaperone from City!

1) To prepare physically for this trip

-I'll need to bring a lot of healthy snacks to tide me over between meals

-I'll need to drink a lot of water during the trip and take plenty of bathroom breaks

-I'll need to listen to my body and take a break if necessary

-I'll need to get enough sleep each night to stay present

2) To prepare mentally for this trip

-I'll need to get ready to experience many emotions

-I'll need to be ready to adapt to last-minute changes

-I'll need to prepare to be an active listener

-I'll need to work on being an excellent communicator with our students and the other chaperones.

Thanks!

Alena
