We suggest that you pack your suitcases and walk around the block with them, then carry them up and down a flight of stairs twice. Luggage on wheels or a little cart are a good idea. Be sure to keep your hand-luggage with you at all times and pack emergency supplies just in case your checked luggage gets lost. You should have a complete physical and dental checkup before departure. Take an extra pair of glasses.
Cold tablets are always available.
Remember, however, to be careful about treating yourself and be sure to seek professional help whenever it is indicated. If you have any special needs please make the program aware of your requirements. They can only help you if you let them know. You will need money for books, entertainment, toilet articles and cosmetics, gifts, local transportation, and independent vacation or weekend travel. Check your budget sheet to see if all meals and housing are included in your program fee.
