How do you overcome homesickness while on vacation?

Question

Ever since I was a child I can't go away from home longer then a day or two. I have to go on this 11 day trip starting tomorrow and im already homesick. I'm even getting sick physically from it. I was looking for some ways I can over come this. Cause I want to go and have fun but its killing me being away from home so long. And its not missing anyone its just not being at my home. Please serious anwsers only..

Answer 1

Let's trade places. I'm travel-sick. But if you're homesick, try to meditate & take deep breaths. Try to focus on exploring something new that you might think you'd enjoy.

Answer 2

Well, to be frank with you, I never experienced such a feeling. What I could recommend however is to try to focus on where you are during your vacation. It is hard, I can understand, but observe the environment and the people around you, try to get new experiences (food, customs, art etc) and try to socialise with fellow tourists or locals. And above all, avoid comparisons between your home and your destinations. No doubt your home is the best place on earth, but earth can still be your home, it is always thrilling and rewarding getting to know it.
