We all want to travel but our greatest limitations are from within. Seeing the world is not leisure but provides interesting elements that will help us grow and discover ourselves. More than that, it boosts our creativity and recharges our spirit to face life challenges. Thus, it is important to quit making these excuses and hit the road.
每個人都渴望一場說走就走的旅行,但內(nèi)心總有這樣那樣的牽絆??词澜绮⒎侵皇琴p風(fēng)景,而是探索趣味、發(fā)現(xiàn)自我、獲得成長的過程。而且,旅行還能激發(fā)創(chuàng)造力,給我們面對生活挑戰(zhàn)的勇氣。所以,不管你借口再多,也應(yīng)該來一場說走就走的旅行。
1. “I don’t have the money.”
1. “我沒錢?!?/strong>
This is probably the most common excuse given by people for not travelling. Yet you should understand that not all traveling experience has to be a five star, luxurious vacation. Also consider the fact that you spend a lot of money on things you don’t really need, such money which can be diverted on learning experiences during traveling. Also you should consider that many people who travel are not the richest people of our society. Did you know that you can make money while vacationing as you housesit your way around the world?
這可能是不去旅行的最常見借口吧?可是,出去旅行并不一定得住五星級酒店、奢華無比啊。還有,想想你平時花了多少冤枉錢在不必要的事情上吧,本來這些錢足夠拿來去旅行長見識了!更何況,很多出去旅行的人也不全是土豪富二代啊。而且,你還可以邊旅行邊賺旅費滴!
2. “I don’t speak the language.”
2. “我不會外語?!?/strong>
This excuse may have applied many years or even a century ago, but not in 2015. Such an excuse can be taken care of with the use of these wonderful apps that can prove handy while traveling. Some of these apps help translate words, signs and sentences and can offer you pictures that will help you convey the message to the foreigner you are trying to speak to.
要是回到100年前,這個借口還真是那么回事,但現(xiàn)在是2015年啦!你要真的不會講外語,那么多的APP軟件總可以用得上吧?有些軟件不僅可以查詞、翻譯標(biāo)志牌和句子,甚至還能提供圖片,讓你更方便和老外交流呢!
3. “I have never traveled before.”
3. “我以前從沒出過門?!?/strong>
Traveling should mean stepping out of your comfort zone. To enjoy and get the best out of life does require trying new things every once in a while. To ease your anxiety, you can look through some travel blogs and gain enough information and knowledge about travel and destinations. You will be rewarded if you take that challenge to get out of your comfort zone and try something you have never done before.
旅行就是要走出舒適區(qū)。若想體驗美好生活,就得時不時地嘗試新鮮事物。緩和出門焦慮癥并不難,你可以讀一讀別人的旅行博客,多了解下旅行目的地信息。如果你能走出舒適區(qū)、嘗試新事物,相信肯定會大有收獲哦!
4. “I am stuck with my job.”
4. “我工作太忙了。”
This is partially true. In a lot of cases your boss wants you to be happy and productive, and he will want to keep you at his company. Traveling helps you to get the best out of your job and be more efficient at it, so why let your job limit you.
有時候確實是這樣。很多時候,老板既希望你能高效工作,又希望你快樂愉悅,他希望你能留在公司上班。但是,旅行能讓你學(xué)到工作不曾教給你的東西,所以,何必讓工作成為你的絆腳石呢?
5. “I don’t have anyone to go with.”
5. “沒有人陪我去啊。”
It is understandable if everyone doesn’t share your desire for traveling. Many people are content with living their lives in a particular city. But that shouldn’t be you. You could travel alone or you could travel with a group of other travelers who want to travel. Check out companies who cater for the needs of group traveler.
沒有旅伴確實是件挺遺憾的事。很多人一輩子就在一個城市生活,覺得這樣就夠了。但是你不應(yīng)該這樣啊。你可以選擇獨自或跟團(tuán)旅行。有一些公司是可以組織團(tuán)隊旅行的。
6. “I don’t think travel is safe.”
6. “我覺得旅行不安全。”
Well traveling is as dangerous as crossing the street. There are a lot of risky ventures in life, but why let fear control our lives? The best way to travel is to travel smart and that could ascertain when and which location to visit.
旅行就像過馬路,危不危險呢?生活中的危險多了去了,干嘛非得讓內(nèi)心的恐懼給拴住?當(dāng)然,旅行前最好做足功課,對目的地有了解才更有保障。
7. “I have so many loans to pay.”
7. “我還有不少貸款要還。”
From mortgage to student loans, many persons carry this burden of debt they will be paying for years. But why let a long-term duty disturb the moment. Getting a job on the road could also help you pay any of these loans. Or you could rent your home for extra cash while you will be traveling and seeing new territories!
不管是房貸還是學(xué)生貸款,很多人都要背負(fù)許多年的經(jīng)濟(jì)負(fù)擔(dān)。但是,干嘛要讓長期負(fù)擔(dān)影響此時此刻呢?旅行時也可以賺錢還貸啊?;蛘?,你也可以在外出旅行時把房子租出去,也是一筆收入呢!
8. “There is no place I want to travel to.”
8. “我沒有什么特別想去的地方。”
Certainly you will want to travel somewhere, maybe you have not checked through amazing Instagram photos and travel blogs to filter pictures that will motivate you enough to pick up a bag and book a ticket.
你肯定會有特別想去的地方。你要是看過很贊的旅行博客或照片,你絕對也會心癢癢、想立馬動身去旅行的!
9. “I am too young.”
9. “我還太小?!?/strong>
While traveling solo as a toddler should not be condoned, that doesn’t mean teens should not venture out and explore the world. As a youngster, it is left for you to convince your parent to understand the benefits of traveling and offer you an opportunity to see the world while you have fewer distractions and engagements in your youth. The educational benefits should not be undermined and this should be enough to inspire your travel.
讓一點點大的小屁孩去旅行當(dāng)然不太可能,但十幾歲的孩子還是有能力出去旅行的。當(dāng)然,這時就要看你能否說服父母、允許你趁年輕時出去看看世界了。旅行絕對會讓你獲益匪淺,這一點就足以讓你心向往之了吧?
10. “I am too old.”
10. “我年紀(jì)大啦!”
More older citizens are engaging in seeing the world and discovering themselves. As a group, many organizations are catering to this unique demographic.
其實,越來越多的老年人已經(jīng)開始走出來看世界了。而且,有些公司還就專門為這一特殊群體提供旅行服務(wù)呢!
