Friendly Persuasion

our school organizes a trip to Costa Rica for one week break in April. I really want my friend to go, but shes very hesitant. it would be the first time she goes without his parents. We have 16 years. How can I convince him to surrender without being too pushy?

just say it will be great fun and there is nothing to fear "I mean come on its right and a class trip for a week and how often will you ever had the chance to leave U.S. United in your life "...... good luck!

tell him not to worry much, there are many students go with you guys, right? tell him that's for sure ... Besides, how many times you might get to visit Costa Rica?
