Cheap travel abroad
Wage 3
Everyone wants to go to Europe, but
who can afford five star hotels and first-
class airfare? There are alternatives,
from camping and hitchhiking to youth
hostels and biking. A Daily staffer,
Rachel Gottlieb, outlines methods of
traveling on a student's budget.

only to sightsee. The University offers
11 programs that take students abroad
for study.

Ann Arbor than just going to bars.
Staffer Amy D. Goldstein uncovers ac-

Dickson says getting in the seasonal
job market is imperative since there is
high unemployment in Europe for full
time jobs.
She says Americans also have an ad-
vantage in that merchants "want your
style" to work in places like Mc-
Donald's on Champs-Elysees.
Besides, she says, looking for a
research job in the south of Franch is a
lot different and more unrealistic than

self, and find any kind of job.
time students at an eight dollar fee.
Special jet lag diets are handy for
those heading overseas. They consist of
four days of fasting and feasting.
Details are available at the Inter-
national Center.
Working abroad can be a rewarding
experience. "I have a phone book full of
new friends" says Starkel.
The student worker is also an "am-
bassador" for the American people.
Not working hard will make the foreign
boss wary of the next American that
comes along.
So instead of spending this summer
working at the local Burger King,
trying to pick dates at the closest
beach, or changing tires and pumping
gas at the local Shell, work in a Munich
garden restaurant, pick oranges in the
South of Franch, or experience the
changing of the guards at London's
Buckingham Palace.
Finally, no one wants to trek halfway
around the world and not have any way
to remember it, so don't forget film.
Bring plenty of it and store it in as cool
a place as possible. Make sure the
camera is in good working condition.

scenery is well worth the effort.
The Michelin green books are good
sources for maps and other infor-
mation. Bicycle touring in Europe is
another useful book and a must-have is
Anybody's Bike Book with information
on bike repair.
Carrying money in a money belt is
essential, Jackson says, "even if you do
look funny digging in your pants when
you have to pay for something."
"Pick pockets are rampant," he
notes. It is best to carry traveler's
checks because they are easily
replaceable.
Another popular student travel option
is hitchhiking. Although this is a cheap
way to see Europe it can be frustrating.
Sometimes there are so many hit-
chikers on the road that it is nearly
impossible to get a ride. Be sure to
carry signs of your destination in the
native language of the country and
dress neatly.
Don't depend solely on hitchhiking,
warns Caillet. "You always have to
compromise, and the weather is not
always dependable."
Last but by no means least is how to
eat cheaply in Europe and still ex-
perience the local cuisine.
In England tea and crumpets are
recommended and should be sup-
plemented with some local treats at the
pubs. Little country cafes and picnic
lunches are satisfying and affordable.
A bagette, some cheese, lunch meats
and wine or bottled water enjoyed in
the out of doors will tantilize even the
most discriminating pallette.
When you want to eat indoors and for
evening meals Caillet recommends the
cafes and the bistros. "But you should
treat yourself to Maxim's at least on-
ce," he added.
