Sometimes it might be easier to tell one friend and let that friend tell other friends. It will depend on the context of your friendships.
Have some tissues to offer in case. If you’re telling a group of friends, have them gather somewhere easy like around a lunch table or sitting on the ground outside.
How much you will miss everyone/your friend. If you don’t want to leave, express this. How you expect your friends to come and visit you. How you’ve already checked out the things that are fun to do in the new place and you can’t wait for them to come and try. Tell them they’re welcome to stay with you.
Feel free to ask your friends how they feel about you leaving. Let them talk openly and listen.
