Final comments
Buy a good guide and take plenty of cash already in the foreign curenncy. Exchange rates can be pretty high. Talk to strangers. Be willing to experience lots of new things and meet lots of people. Be open to the culture and try to take part in it, especially with the language. They will not laugh if you make a mistake. Have fun.
