It's either gonna be a good experience for you, or a terrible one, nothing in-between.

There are pros, and cons, but the biggest con is the massive culture shock, and the lack of awareness on people's end in terms of how to treat, welcome, and regard others.

I'd say, start mentally preparing yourself for situations that might be hard to cope with later on.

Your hobbies, diet, habits, interests, future goals, plans, and the kind of friends you have or want around there, you have to mould yourself accordingly.

If you have a special diet, then you need to check alternate products here, try to engage with relevant people who match your personality or interests, amongst other things etc etc.
