Ten Top Tips for Your Travels
◆ Put on your most comfortable clothes and shoes when you are going for a long journey.
◆ It may be boring to travel on trains or buses, so take a good book or some interesting magazines with you.
◆ If you're going to somewhere hot, you'd better take your sun block (防晒霜) and sunglasses with you, or
it may hurt your skin.
◆ If you're going to somewhere cold, you'd better take your warm clothes with you, or you may catch a cold. ◆ Take a camera with you so that you can take some pictures to record those special moments.
◆ Be careful with your things whenever you go to busy places, like a train station or a bus stop. There are
often thieves there!
◆ There are some souvenirs (纪念品) in most places of interest. Leave room in your bag for them.
◆ There are some things at a discount (打折的) for students in most countries, so if you have one, take your
student card with you in order to save your money.
◆ Bus tours often stop at expensive shops along the way. You'd better not buy souvenirs there. Instead, you
can buy them in local shops at a lower price.
◆ Remember to take your passport with you if you travel abroad. Whatever you do, don't lose it! Most
importantly, always remember to have fun-that's what holidays are for!
