Dear Kate,
Thanks for your letter asking me for advice about what you should take with for your first trip abroad. As I see it, this is a good idea to go abroad on a package holiday. I would advise you to check what the price includes? In my opinion the price should comprise the: return fare, accommodation, full board and guided sight-seeing. If the price covers all these things, you can be satisfied.
If I were you I would make a list what I need for ten days. You ought to check the expiry date in your passport because this is very important when you cross the border. Don't forget to exchange proper amount money. You should know that using credit cards abroad is quite costly.
You must remember about safety. Therefore you should insure yourself against accidents and I advise you to insure your luggage against theft too. You should check the weather forecast for the time you plane the journey. This will help you pack proper clothes, because you must remember that your suitcase can’t bee too heavy. Don’t forget to take a Polish-Spanish phrase book, which also very important. And remember about the camera in order to take a beautiful photo for me.
Hope these tips will be of any help.
Lots of love,
Iwona
