God will not leave you.. Just think of your travel as an adventure. I'll tell you a story of someone close to me who had a great job and lost it, because her boss was very abusive, and she had just had a baby and her husband wasn't very understanding of her debt, considering she went back to school and had to pay for it. She was really running out of cash, and things were so tight she couldn't sleep at night, the next day she took all the money she had left (pls don't do that) but I am just telling you what she did, and she said, oh Allah, I don't have money to even pay my bills, and you only know that, this money isn't a luxury, but I'll give it to someone who probably needs it even more than I do.
well honest truth to God, she got money that was due her in the sum of $3000 not two days later, which she used to pay some of her bills over several months until something became more clear to her, and just as the money ran out before she had a chance to think of her great debt, she got a job with good pay, even though it is per diem, but so her husband won't be mad at her for neglecting her home, since she can't bring herself to tell him she is indebt.
What is the moral of the story? Honestly, if you put full faith in God and just follow your heart and be on the right path, he WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU. you really have to believe that, not just think, well yes in a methphysical sense, in the after life, in this or that.. no I mean even in a worldly sense he will take care of you. He will sustain you insha'Allah!
Give a small amount you can to charity before you go on your trip even if it be fifty cents to a donation box in a mosque and clear your heart, and smile, you are about to have an excellent adventure insha'Allah, so just fasten your seat belt, relax and great things shall await you insha'Allah
