Rebecca`s Trip across the Pond

What to bring

Not much really

Wanderschuhe, Laufschuhe, bequeme Sandalen oder Aehnliches.

Badeanzug, Shorts etc. aber auch waerme Kleidung (kann kalt werden beim Campen)
Falls Du hast Regenjacke und Rucksack – anonsten habe ich diese Sachen auch alle fuer Dich.

Nichts fancy, kleidungsmaessig geht es in Boulder sehr locker zu, wie Du weisst.

Reiseversicherung – die Mama hat sich sicher da schon erkundigt.

Bitte lasse uns wissen was Du gerne isst und was Du ueberhaupt nicht magst.
