  1. \"mmexport1464211506642\"<\/a>Must,must,must have comfortable walking shoes! Those strappy sandals just won’t cut it. If you don’t bring the walking shoes, bring plenty of band aids. You’ll need them!<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. Wear clothes that breathe, as AC is hard to come by throughout the day<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. Either bring enough clothes to last the trip or be prepared to wash clothes in your sink<\/em><\/li>\n
  4. Make sure that you bring tissue packs, wet wipes and hand sanitizer.<\/em><\/li>\n
  5. There’s no need to exchange a lot of currency in the U.S. Instead go to one of the plentiful Chinese ATMs (certain ones are partnered with American banks so reduced\/no fee)<\/em><\/li>\n
  6. Pay very close attention to your professors at all times!<\/em><\/li>\n
  7. It is important to always have a partner. Walking alone is never a good option anywhere.<\/em><\/li>\n
  8. Be punctual! This is important for success and happiness for the group.<\/em><\/li>\n
  9. This is more for females: but the time change can mess with your body, so be prepared! <\/em><\/li>\n
  10. Be prepared for an awesome adventure every day!<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
