There are Japanese people paying lots of money for short English lessons at private language schools. There’s got to be someone out there who has a spare space in their house for free 24 hour lessons! Where is he/she?

>There’s got to be someone out there who has a spare space in their house for free 24 hour lessons!

No. Japanese houses are small. There is not enough space to accommodate other people.

And people usually do not want to let a stranger stay in their house. It’s dangerous.

But you can make friends online (like Facebook) and stay at their home, even without English lesson. So there are some ways.

I’m traveling to Spain and Morocco next month for 2 weeks and I want to know what is the best way to protect my money and passport when I’m out in the city. I will be staying in a combination of hotels, hostels and homestays (I do not know the family). Is it best to keep all my money and passport on me at all times? Take only the money I need and leave the rest buried in my suitcase? Take or leave my passport in my suitcase? Should I keep my luggage locked?

I’ve been to Morocco a few times and here is what I do. I bought a nylon passport case on a string. It has a couple of zippers on it, I can also keep my cash in that and always put a copy of my return flight in it too. I wear my passport under my clothes so it is always with me. Keep a lock on your luggage too, and keep your money divided up. I bring a Bible and put it in a zippered Bible case with a small backpack lock on it…had $200 stolen while going through the security in New York airport a few years ago. You can also bring your ATM card if you need to get more money. If using it in Morocco, only withdraw money while the bank is open because if you enter the wrong PIN number the machine will keep your card until you can go inside and show ID to get it back. Pickpockets are notorious in tourist areas both in Morocco and Europe, so if you have a purse, make sure you keep it close to your body while you are browsing through the medinas or boarding a train or bus or other crowded tourist areas.
