[quote=Anonymous]Which country is your AP arriving from? With my European APs, it was harder for the non-summer arrivals to find their social networks and travel partners. Unless your incoming AP is very savvy socially, she will have a hard time forming friendships quickly enough to make travel plans for July/August. Most APs have had the entire year to make friendships, save enough for travel, and plan far enough in advance for summer reservations. I would recommend letting your AP invite a friend or family member from her home country to either travel with her and/or stay with her in your home. I would also be prepared to re-train her when you return from your month of travel. We made the mistake of taking a family vacation a couple of months after a new AP arrived, and it was a disaster. She forgot almost everything. In hindsight, I would have waited until after the vacation to welcome a new AP. [/quote]
