Traveling Abroad Guidelines

By Bae So-young Reporter, Sophomore of English Language and Literature

Traveling abroad provides experiences that we cannot buy with money. Because of this attraction, lots of university students are traveling abroad. The following places are recommending traveling spots.

A person who wants to enjoy activities – Malaysia, Kota Kinabalu

•Activities that you can try

Sapi island sea walking     Glowing fireflies tour    Padas river rafting

•Things that you should know

There is no direct flight to Kota Kinabalu, so you should have a meal at the airport before departure. Almost all flights to Kota Kinabalu arrive late at night, so reserving a pickup service or using a taxi, or grab service is recommended. Kota Kinabalu is cool in the morning and night, so take outer clothing. While choosing accommodation, bear in mind your priorities. If your priority is shopping, make a reservation near the shopping center, and if your priority is resting, book accommodation near the beach.

A Person who wants to enjoy spectacular landscape – Turkey

•Place that you can go 

Pamukkale           Cappadocia            Antalya

•Things that you should know

Local foods are very exotic, relative to other countries, so do not forget to take as much cup-ramen and red pepper paste as you can. Because the different landscapes are separated from each other, package traveling will be better than individual travel. Take comfortable shoes, because there are many places to walk. Also, take extra clothes because of the daily temperature range.
