Going on a holiday without your family for the first time can be a free experience. Just remember that they won’t be at your side if it all goes wrong. Here’s how to be prepared:
Know the plan. So, you’re holidaying with friends, and nobody around gives you any comfort. So you need to watch out for yourselves as a group, which means being responsible (负责的) about having a good time, and looking out for each other. To get the most excitement and pleasure, be clear about your hopes for this holiday. Don’t wait until you arrive to discover you’re the only one with plans for lots of cold nights staying at the hotel.

In this way, not only do you know that your family care about you, but also it can let their mind free from worry. If possible, make a call to them at an agreed time and it doesn’t cost much money. Just don’t be afraid to call your family at any time if you’re feeling bad.
Eat your greens. It’s worth keeping change to your diet. Just keep one eye on your health. Eating greens is a sure way to keep your health.
