范文1 Travel-Mate Wanted
I'm a 19-year-old female sophomore majored in Tourist Guiding by the name of Lily.I here by sincerely invite a foreign young lady — college student preferred — to make a weeklong trip with me.
My plan is to set off next weekend,when the summer vacation officially begins. The first stop is Nanjing, the world renowned city for its history and tradition. After a 2-day visit there, we will board a downstream ship to Shanghai, so that we can enjoy the great scenery alongside the Changjiang River. As everybody knows, Shanghai is a fast developing city in China. I'd like to have a look at its prosperity, so the stay there will be about two days. And a famous Chinese saying goes, "Just as there is Paradise in heaven, there are Suzhou and Hangzhou on Earth", so a 3-day visit to these two cities near Shanghai is a must. All together, our trip will last about one week.
I only expect that my travel-mate could split the expenses with me and talk with me in perfect English, preferably as her mother tongue, and I would be an excellent guide for her since I major in Tourist Guiding.

I'm a 20-year-old girl named Lily.I earnestly invite a foreign young lady to make a weeklong trip with me.
I plan to visit Beijing during the May Day arrival in Beijing, we will visit the Forbidden City where the emperors of Ming and Qing dynasties next day we will go to the Summer Palace where we can row a boat. You must have heard the saying," He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man", so our next destination is Badaling (Eight Thoroughfare Peaks). After seeing the grand view in Badaling, we will go shopping in the famous Wangfujing Street and when you are hungry, I may invite you to taste the Beijing Roast Duck, which is a local ng the next two days, I will show you around in Beijing University and Tsinghua University which are the top ones in China. Then we will return to Shanghai the last day.
