旅行的意義/ The Meaning of Traveling

對於旅行,每個人的定義也許不同。旅行除了看世界,最終還是回到自己。有人說:旅行只是花錢買短暫的歡愉。就算哪歡愉只是短暫的又如何?旅行的前中後,都有不一樣的心境。 從未知的恐懼與興奮,到出發前的緊張有帶著些許的不安,一直到降落的哪一刻,開始探索旅途上的未知。 這些過程都好比窺視自己一般。沒有人能告訴自己這旅途一定是順遂的,也沒有人能告訴自己這過程一定都是愉快的,現實與當初的想像絕對會會是有差別的。其中的冷暖,也只有自己能蓋括承受。


旅行除了是探索世界的一環外,更是摸索自己的一個過程。這麼說感覺很老派或是很虛偽。不過有自己出去過流浪過的旅人想必都曉得,旅行不比渡假或是出國進修,沒有豪華的飯店及餐食,沒有安排好的課程及宿舍。 所有的一切都是要在旅途前先規劃,到了開始一站一站的往前進行,途中也許順遂也許挫折,也未必都能照著原先安排的行程走,途中的變數永遠都比定數來得多。這時候在外地的你也只能定心的告訴自己就算這時有點鼻酸也無論如何都得要盡興。過完一站又一站,等到旅途到了終點,不捨離去始終還是得歸去。再壞再好,所有的一切都只會化為經驗,留在回憶裡芬芳。


你問旅行的意義是甚麼? 向外開啟與探索,向內審視拼湊,慢慢地找尋哪個最初最想要的自我。



So what is the meaning of travelling? To connect your inner space by discovering the outer world, finding what you really want and who you really are.
The Meaning of Travelling


About travel, each individual might have his own definition. Besides seeing the world with his own eyes, the final goal is all about seeing oneself through the outer world. Some people think that travelling is nothing but just a temporary joy with money spent. Somehow, why can't people buy the temporary joy with the money they have been earning themselves? When you hit the road, the feelings are varying according to different phases of the journey, with the unknown fear and excitement from the beginning to the fulfillment in the end, all the sensation to the trip is a way to revise yourself again. No one can tell you that everything in the trip would go well or nothing would happen against your plan. The reality would absolutely differ from what you have planned, and you are the only one who can sense it and experience it on your own.


Travelling is not only a way to discover the world but also a medium for you to have the connection with yourself. It sounds corny or hypocritical likes excuses from all the travellers. However, it is quite true in a way or another. Those who have ever been wandering countries in his own must understand that travelling is not just spending holidays or purchasing further education abroad. There are no luxurious hotels or meals, no registered courses or dormitories; everything has to be planned in advanced and to try to be executed. You might be satisfied or frustrated with your plan. Plans can never catch up with the changes. You can only try to calm down to tell yourself to be brave and keep enjoying the trip no matter how upset or frustrated you feel at that moment. When the journey comes to the end, even you are reluctant to depart you still have to.

Whether it was good or bad, it has already become one of your experiences and installed in your memories.
