莫因细节毁了心情:旅行中常犯的5大错误

2013-02-03来源:互联网
3. Being TOO Social
3. 太过高调

Bragging about upcoming trips and posting photos and status updates while you are on vacation is so common now that it can be considered an expected part of the experience. Keep in mind however that you are advertising that you’ve left behind an empty house.
度假前炫耀即将到来的旅行,度假时晒晒照片或更新状态,这些不仅司空见惯,甚至已成为旅行不可或缺的部分了。可也千万别忘了,这么做等于在广而告之:你家里正无人把门呢。

It's reported that Burglars have already begun to turn to Facebook and Twitter to find homes that may be vacant during a holiday absence, so don’t make their job any easier for them by giving them your travel itinerary.”
据相关报道,窃贼已转向Facebook 和Twitter 搜寻因度假而无人看守的房屋了。所以,最好别事无巨细描述自己的旅程,别让窃贼轻易得逞才是。

4. Doing the Last Minute Shuffle
4. 临时佛脚

You may have planned out your trip down to the last detail, but don’t forget about the few days before you embark on your adventure. There are usually a lot of items that need to be handled before you step foot into that plane: pet-sitters, stopping your mail, notifying your bank and credit card companies of where you’ll be travelling, buying last minute items of course, packing.
或许你已将旅程安排得事无巨细,但在出行之前最好也别忘了不在家时的各项安排。登上飞机之前通常还有不少事情需要处理:宠物托管、信箱暂停,通知银行及信用卡公司你的旅行目的地,当然还得购买最后所需物品并进行打包。

We suggest that you add a few pre-travel days to your planning to make sure you are not over stressed or realize once you are 5,000 miles away that you have forgotten something critical.
建议你旅行前空出几天做计划,以免旅行过于紧张,或等到早已离家十万八千里才想起忘记带某个重要物件了。

5. Forgetting to Relax
5. 忘记放松

Remember that you are traveling to enjoy yourself, so make sure to plan in some time to do nothing. Being overambitious and trying to pack too much into every day will only result in stress, and if you spend every second running from attraction to attraction, you are very likely to miss the most interesting aspect of your destination, the culture.
请记住:旅行是为了享受,所以做好无所事事的准备吧。若是野心勃勃地将日常琐物一并打包,结果怕只会搞得自己紧张兮兮;若是忙不迭地从某个景点奔向下一个景点,你可能得错过欣赏最有意思的部分:你的旅行目的地,和那里的文化。

You can see the Eiffel Tower in a million photographs on the internet, but you can only experience the culture and ambiance of Paris in Paris. Grab a coffee at a sidewalk café, take a moment and watch the locals, smell the croissant in front of you and listen to the urban symphony around you.
或许你已在网络图片上千万次看到埃菲尔铁塔,但巴黎的韵味和文化,却只能在巴黎亲身体验才行。所以,何不在路边咖啡馆品尝咖啡,静下来细细体味地方人情,抑或伴着羊角面包的芳香倾听周遭的都市交响曲呢!
