If you’re struggling with acute onset MFAAAIN syndrome (My Friends Are Abroad And I’m Not), there is no definite cure but here are some possible coping techniques…

  • Create a support network. Sometimes it helps to know you’re not alone; find others who dream of eating churros in Madrid and navigating Venice’s Grand Canal.
