3. Having a Cup of Coffee
Mark: So, Hiromi, what’s new?
Hiromi: I’m going to go overseas.
Mark: Really, where are you going to go?
Hiromi: I’m going to go to Thailand.
Mark: Wow! That sounds exciting! When are you going to go?
Hiromi: Next month.
Mark: Is it your first time abroad?
Hiromi: Yes, it is I’m a bit nervous.
Mark: Don’t worry. Thailand is a very safe country. You’ll be ok.
Hiromi: What should I take?
Mark: Not much. Thailand is very cheap so you can buy whatever you need.
Hiromi: Should I take warm clothes? I don’t know what the weather is like now.
Mark: It’s always warm in Thailand so you don’t need winter clothes, but you should take a light coat. Sometimes the air-conditioning is very cold.
Hiromi: Ok. I’ll do that. Do I need a visa?
Mark: I don’t know. Australians don’t need a visa, but I’m not sure about Japanese. You should ring the embassy. Do you have your ticket yet?
Hiromi: Not yet. Do you know a good travel agent?
Mark: There are lots. Check the ads in the magazines. Shop around. Look for the cheapest fare. Do you want to go on a tour or travel independently?
Hiromi: I want to do everything by myself.
Mark: That’s a good idea. It’s cheaper that way. Who are you going to go with?
Hiromi: I’m going on my own.
Mark: You’re going alone! Great! You’re very brave!
Hiromi: Do you think I’ll be ok?
Mark: Of course! Don’t worry! Thailand is safe!

I think that most places in the world are pretty safe as long as you use common sense.
Yeah. You could go to the most dangerous place on earth and have no trouble then one day you might get hit by a car in front of your own house on a quiet street. life is short and special and …maybe it is mapped out for us?
natural fibers like wool are still the best for winter clothes;`*
when buying winter clothes, i always chose wool because i love the feel of it,**
am already preparing to get my winter clothes because winter is coming fast again. i could already feel the winter breeze”‘~
remember taking money, and always keep your money safe
`;. that seems to be a great topic, i really love it ~*-
