在路上:今年应该出去旅行的10大理由  

1. If you don’t take the first step
you’ll never do it.
It’s so easy to get stuck in this cycle of “I’m going to go — I can’t go right now — I’ll go next year — I’m going to go
” and never get out of it. There is
after all
a lot of logistics that go into getting out there and seeing the places you’ve always wanted to see.
If you’re looking for one
there is always an excuse not to get those tickets. But the second you take the plunge and decide that you’re actually going (and making the painful-but-necessary financial investments to do so)
everything else has a tendency to fall into place.
只要你不想去，总有理由不去动身。可一旦你鼓起勇气真的决定出发时（可能要为此花掉一点必要的积蓄），所有的一切都会清晰明朗啦。
2. It’s less expensive than you think.
While the purchases of things like tickets are always going to sting a bit
there are so many ways to make your travels feasible to do on the cheap.
If a hostel is too pricey for you (though there are many which offer beds at 15 bucks a night or even less in major cities)
couch surfing is a wonderful option. If you don’t know anyone
check any of the many websites which anize couch surfers. Speaking personally
I and almost all of my friends in Paris have hosted couch surfers at one time or another
because we understand that it’s a city so many people want to see at some point
and we don’t always have a ton of disposable ine to do so.)
It’s actually incredibly fun for hosts to meet new people and be able to see their city through new eyes. They can also help you eat cheap
local food and shop places where you won’t be another ripped-off tourist. It’s win-win
and practically free. Of course
it’s always encouraged that you buy a meal or bottle of wine for your host
and help with chores when possible — but still
that’s nothing pared to a hotel.
3. You don’t ever have to be alone.
Whether you meet people in your hostel
stay on someone’s couch
or join an online travel group before you go which anizes meetups for people passing through the city
there is never a reason to be alone while traveling if you don’t want to.
Being young and in a new city is one of the easiest ways to meet tons of people
and gives you a million things to talk about in every conversation with a stranger. It’s a time you don’t have to be afraid of first impressions
or the baggage of your life back home. Everything and everyone is a clean slate
and you can meet as many people as you want on your journey.
4. But you can be alone if you want.
If you are more interested in spending some alone time
however
there are a million ways to go about that. You can just leave for a day and go wander around a new city
taking everything in and being at peace with your own thoughts. You can take pictures or sit down in cafes and write about everything you see
and don’t have to be on anyone’s schedule. It’s rare that we get these kind of moments back home
and we owe it to ourselves to have them once in a while
if it’s what we want.
5. Plane travel is an adventure in itself.
Just the act of getting in a plane and feeling it take off
or navigating the byzantine chaos of an airport in early morning
can be a thrilling experience that we easily fet we can have. There is something terribly frightening but also wonderfully life-affirming about the moments before takeoff
or the glimpses of patchwork fields you can get from over the wing.
Even the often-disappointing selection of airplane food bees something wonderful and exotic when you’re going somewhere you’ve been dreaming about for years. It’s a moment that means you got out
that you overcame the false starts
and that something new is waiting for you.
6. Once you get there
moving around is easier.
Take
for example
Europe. You e primarily to see Rome
but you want to get around and see other things. Beeen cheap train tickets with the 12-30 discount cards
incredibly cheap airlines that hop beeen European cities
and car shares that are easily accessible online and can cross entire countries in a few hours
there are limitless ways to get from one place to another once you’ve already taken the leap across the ocean.
Whichever continent you’re headed to
though
you’ll find that (in many ways thanks to the inter) the means of shorter travel to make the most out of a single trip are growing exponentially every day.
7. You never know what will happen when you get there.
It’s so cliché
but it’s said often for a reason. You can spend years rationalizing how you aren’t missing that much by not going
or how you don’t want to risk not having a good time
or that you won’t know what to do when you get there
but the truth is you have no point of reference.
The amount of incredible things that you could happen on your trip is literally unimaginable. You can say that you don’t need to see it
but you really have no way of knowing exactly what you’re missing out on.
8. You will invariably learn something about yourself.
It can be as simple as
“I can navigate a foreign city by myself and get around with a language book full of only useful phrases. I can use my limited skills to get good food
acmodations
and meet new friends.” Even this is an incredibly important and affirming thing to know about oneself
and the only way to learn it is to get out and see what happens when you try.
9. It’s good to get out.
No matter how much you love your current place of residence
it’s just all-around a good thing to get out every now and again and see some new surroundings. You are able to put some parison up against the corner bars you are used to
the restaurants you frequent
the architecture you’re surrounded by
and the public transportation you use every day.
While you may end up finding that you prefer where you came from
it’s nice to see just how much of our own cities we take for granted as being universal
and even how the buzz of a city around dusk can feel pletely different in a climate which is almost identical. Cities have their own lives and personalities
and we sometimes fet that ours is far from being the only kind out there.
10. There are so many people you haven’t met yet.
Maybe you won’t meet the love of your life waiting to cross a street in a foreign city. Maybe you won’t have a whirlwind o weeks with them where you explore your new environment and learn the first fumbling steps of a new language. Maybe you won’t end up remembering this city for the rest of your life as the place where everything wonderful first began. But maybe you will
and that’s reason enough to go.
