Life is about living and seeing new things and enjoying it....so why not it will be a great experience. Go for it. You have nothing to lose :)

I'd say go for it. Don't let anxiety stop you from doing things, if you do it means it's winning!

Maybe try some meditation before you go. Have a look at Amazon for jon kabat-zinn

Def go.....I wish I could have a break! How good there's a group that meets up! I wish there was something like that here. I'm in the middle of a panic attack and I have no one to knock on and speak to, as a lot of my friends have just moved away......anxiety is a lonely problem when everyone around doesn't understand.....
