At every stage prior to undertaking this exchange - selection, induction and orientation - the British Council and Fulbright go to great lengths to ensure that exchangees are aware of the potential hardships and pitfalls of the experience. Nothing, however, can fully prepare you for how deeply bad news from back home can affect you when you're an ocean away from all that is familiar; how utterly isolating it is.
RIP, Jim Pascoe.
