Analysis of Travel Advice



Come one, come all, come have a ball "Headhunt" in Senegal
Forget, forgive, live and let live
Fight Cossacks in Kiev
See how you're blest, regain fresh zest
Bathe nude in Budapest
Go out to dine, taste a fine wine
Canoe the German Rhine
Learn a new dance, enjoy romance
Give love a chance in France
Embrace a friend, never pretend
Search for the lost Land's End
Jump high, jump far, lift up the bar
Sail to Vina del Mar
Write plays, set cast, let good times last
Publish in Old Belfast
Slap on a smile, make life worthwhile
Bike on Avalon Isle
Take sound advice, be twice as nice
Slide on Antarctic Ice
