While the convenience of the Internet was definitely a contributing factor to my _________ not to take with me the few expensive kilograms of out-of-date information, this was not the only reason why I decided to fly alone.

So, ________ any guidebook, I traveled to Estonia, the tiny Baltic country bordering Russia. In the __________ of advance plans as guidebooks would suggest, I had no choice but to turn to some friendly faces for advice. I __________ myself first and then asked them what was happening around the town. When this __________ an invitation to a beautiful Estonian home by a river where I __________ a 110-degree wood-stove sauna(桑拿浴), __________ picked forest-mushrooms and the good __________ of our five newly-found Estonian friends, I was most glad that I had left my “bossy __________” at home.
