Im spending a year abroad as part of my uni course starting in September,I wonder if anyone else is doing or has done the same, it'd be interesting to know where you have been or are planning to go

I spent half a year abroad in USA back in the day...definitely the best thing about uni for me, but other friends didn't enjoy it as much, I think Shyboy hits the nail on the head when he talks about expectations.
I bet America was lovely, where abouts did you go?
I did my Year Abroad in Germany and absolutely loved it!
I think it depends on the person really; you have to be open minded and I'd say fairly independent because of course, you're in a totally new place and the only way to make the most of it is getting out and enjoying yourself, getting to know other people and going to new places.
Where are you going?
