Dear Anita, 

     My wife and I are planning to travel to Japan in a few months and we are both very excited about it.  We have our suitcases, passports, and a long list of places to visit and things to do.  However, we can’t agree on one thing.  My wife wants us to join a tour group.  In her opinion, it will be more fun to travel with other people and she thinks that without a tour guide we might get lost.  But, in my opinion, we will probably see more things and have more fun if we just take a map, a phrase book and travel by ourselves. 

Who do you think is right: my wife or me?

Dear Anita,

     I’m seventeen years old and my best friends and I want to back pack around Europe for the summer.  We plan to stay in hostels, so it won’t be too expensive.  But my parents are worried that it’s too dangerous – they worry that we’ll have problems with different cultures and customs and maybe even pickpockets. 

They want me to wait until I’m older before I  travel, but  my friends are  going  this summer, with me or without me. 

What do you think, Anita?

Dear Anita,

     Our English teacher asked us an interesting question yesterday.  She asked us to imagine that a friend was coming to visit us from another country and to choose three things that our friend could buy to take home as souvenirs.  What three things would you suggest, Anita?
