Plan your trip

You want to arrive in NYC on Sunday the 23rd of June and stay in the city until Thursday the 27th of June. You have a budget of 20 000 Swedish crowns. Do research online and include this information in your presentation:

• Your flight details and costs

• The hotel you will be staying at

• What you’ll be doing during your stay (restaurants, clubs, shopping, tourist sites). Give as many details as possible!

• How you get to these different places. (Walking, the subway, the bus)

• You can also make an effort and try to find out if there are any special events such as concerts, sports, plays or festivals when you’re in town

Make sure you stay within the given budget. Include the prices. Remember to check the currency rate and convert the prices.

Your presentation should be around 5 minutes.
