If I could only bring three things, I wouldn't go. But seeing as this is hypothetical...
1. my iPod
2. my english/german dictionary
3. my retainer
Because no one wants to be stuck in a foreign country with no language skills AND crooked teeth. Ew!
If I could only pack three things on my abroad experience, hmmm.
a) Tennis Racket - Tennis is my passion, and I can't give it up.
b) Hiking Boots - I'm outdoorsy, cant do without these
c) Video Camera - I want to be able to document the magic.
Hopefully with my boots and my racket I can film some memorable stuff!!!
If I could only bring three items on my study abroad trip I would pick:
1)A dictionary of the local language
2)A camera/videorecorder
3)A map of the area(so I won't get lost and to know where all the good views are)
1. My Frisbee
2. My Ipod
3. A Video Camera
1. "have frisbee, will travel"
2. I can't go a day without music
3. I'd like to bring those memories home
if I could bring 3 things I would bring:
1. my videogames
2. a translator for the contry I am visiting
3. a video camera
I chose those because i dont want my family to do something with my games, a camera will let me remember what a did there, and a translator will help me learn the language better.
1. A film camera: I like film pictures better than digital print.
2. Good walking shoes: some that won't wear out or give me blisters.
3. Band-aides: you never know, band-aides are useful!
My viola
A toothbrush
A journal
-my iPod...i LIVE for music!!!
-a spanish/english translator...i love the language, but am FAR from fluent
-my cell phone so i can keep in touch with my family and send them pictures of my adventures
I would bring...
1. french dictionary

3. a journal
