1.How many budget?

This travel plan is formulate for two people, which is me and Ives.We decided to bring about 150,000 RMB for us to use.

2.How to go Canada?

After the discussion with Ives, we decided to take plane to get there. But which flight will we take? If Canada travel is assumed to be an east-west journey, it is necessary to determine whether to start from the east or west. There are two representative locations, Vancouver and Quebec, respectively. After my air search, I found that tickets from Beijing to Vancouver are cheaper. Also,I found the flight that organized by Air China will be more cheap.Here is the picture. We can get Beijing in the afternoon and then take the plane to Canada and sleep for one night before arriving.

3.Climate there?

Speak of climate, we need to choose the season that suits our travel.Canada is located above 50 degrees north latitude, The temperature there is relatively low. So our trip is scheduled in July. Although temperatures may seem low year-round, but southern provinces rarely drop to zero degrees Celsius in winter, especially in the five Great Lakes region of the southeast. In the summer, The average temperature in Vancouver is 25 degrees, in Montreal is 26 degrees, The average temperature in Toronto is 26 degrees.And the air quality there is very good. This is good for our travel.

The most important is the clothes we wear. If we are going to attend some formal occasions, we need to bring two formal outfits to And other daily clothes like T-shirts, sweaters, trousers, pants, and A rainproof coat. In order to protect our skin, sunscreen is essential.

Considering the factors that Canada hasn’t developed railway transportation network there. So a car is the best choose. So we need to rent a RV for us to drive. If have the ability to drive, we can do it by ourselves, this will not cause any security issues. But we are only senior high schooler and didn’t have any license. So hiring is very necessary. But we need to pay attention for our security.
