Abstract
This research note provides some preliminary findings of a study examining the behaviour of male and female international students while they are travelling. It is based on information collected about the behaviour of Chinese international students during their holiday in the UK. This work is required because of the importance of international students to the tourism industry and the paucity of previous research about this population. The study focused on the intersection of three key social characteristics: gender (comparing male and female), age (young students) and ethnicity (Chinese) has produced some interesting preliminary conclusions.
