[quote=GERALDINE,254012]Hi there we have just returned from a 6 week stint in this lovely country by ourselves and we did not find it difficult at all. We stayed in budget places and found the mix of locals and foreigners to be wonderful. Agree- book train tickets early or you can miss out- learn language basics, hello, goodbye, thank you, excuse me, the people really appreciate it. The Lonely Planet phrase book is great. Lonely Planet guide is our bible- it gives a good indication of costs for travel, directions for main attractions and bus numbers to get places and the names are written in Chinese so the taxi drivers can read where you want to go. Most locals are more than helpful if you need something and will do all they can to give assistance. Relax and enjoy this wonderful country- Best of luck and enjoy your holiday.[/quote]
