I did a study abroad program in London last fall, and it was a completely amazing experience. It was a little strange coming back to Kappa in the spring, but I would say the experience was more than worth it. Keep in touch with your chapter, e-mail is always good (and cheap!) and postcards are cheap to buy and send - just to let them know you're still thinking about them. Keep in touch with your close friends in the chapter, they'll keep you updated on gossip. The weirdest part is coming back and having all these new sisters that you don't know, but getting involved with things they're invovled in makes getting to know them pretty easy - like for me, a lot of our new girls played IM Soccer, so I always went to the games to cheer them on.
My big sister actually went to London with me and we lived together, and early on we discovered two Kappas from UF living in the flat right next door to us - so we had our little Kappa family in London! It was great meeting these girls and learning that my Kappa bonds extend beyond my chapter - the four of us got along really well and even spent our 12-day break exploring Europe together.
So have fun, take lots of pictures, and be safe!
