  • Change your underwear every day.
  • Don't say anything nice about Turkey while you're in Greece
  • Visit the Monet Museum in Paris
  • Breathe

Rosemary

Should it rain, watch you mouth and be very, very nice... One person's rain might be another person's sunshine!

So...... Susie, You're from Alaska, right? Can you see Russia???

Janice

Since you will get weary carrying your bags around, you will need help with this task. My advice is that you engage my services to do so. So please purchase a ticket for me, and I will join you shortly.

Todd

Make sure you pick up lots of rocks, they are different and keep you grounded

Cathy's tips for foreign travel (like I've ever been out of the country -- does Canada count?)

  1. Always look before you cross the street. Foreign drivers are not always on the right side of the road, and when they are, aren't they on the left?
  2. Climbing shoes in Greece -- I hear the climb to the top is grueling but the view is tops!
  3. Call home on occasion. That way no one worries too much about you.
  4. Take lots of pictures. It gives you something to reflect back on when you move into the best nursing home your money can buy.
  5. Most of all, have fun and post on our iTeach2 blog. We wanna see what you see!

  • Keep a journal. At your age, you'll forget everything if you don't.
  • Learn a few words in the language of each country you visit. You'll gain a lot of good will for your effort.
  • Enjoy the food and forget guilt.
  • Buy dark chocolate everywhere you go for the Title III director. This is likely to reap huge benefits for you in the next academic year!

Clare

Don't even think about diet! Say yes to everything! Well, almost everything. Do something wonderfully, extravagantly excessive every day. Write me about it all so I can live vicariously!

Leslie

You only need 2 pair of underwear, wash rinse, repeat, turning into a bar may mean something different to the cute guy you are asking to go with you. Beware of red lights. Have fun and enjoy

Rose

Susie: Bon Voyage. Don't forget to do you happy dance while on vacation, especially at locations you love. We will miss you this summer, but have a great time. Thanks for you help and advice. Have fun.

Maureen

  • Don't pick up any wooden euros
  • Try not to sleepwalk when you're staying on the canal boat
  • Skip lunch when you're in Vienna - just have pastry and coffee (mit schlag) both mid-morning and mid-afternoon

Heidi

Learn Greek Dance Etiquette

Carol

  • Take lots of photos!!!
  • Remember that the sun isn't trying to kill you
  • Forget about students, university administration, and e-mail inboxes
