女性独自旅行的9条小贴士

Here are my 9 tips for solo travel if you're a girl:
如果你是个女孩子而且要独自旅行,这儿有我给你的9条建议。

1. Be Prepared.
1、准备妥当。
A well-considered itinerary helps me feel secure and keeps me occupied. I do a lot of research and planning before I get on the bus or plane or train. At the very least, as a female travelling alone, you should book your first night of accommodation before your arrival at your destination.
经过深思熟虑的旅行日程会让我觉得可靠,而且不会让我闲着。在我登上大巴、飞机或火车之前,我会做大量的研究和规划。至少,作为一名独自旅行的女性,你应该在到达目的地之前订好你第一晚的住处。

2. Look Purposeful.
2、看起来志在必得。
Being prepared and knowing where you're going helps immensely with this. Don't show your ignorance, fear, and vulnerability while on the road -- it may encourage unwanted attention and invite others to take advantage of you. Bring a book to restaurants so you're not uncomfortably waiting for your food to come.
准备妥当,并了解你要去的地方,会对你的出行有极大的帮助。在路上的时候,不要表现出无知、恐惧或是脆弱,因为这也许会带来不必要的关注,让其他人利用你。去餐厅的时候带本书,这样你在等待上餐的时候就不会觉得不舒服了。

3. Take Walking Tours.
3、徒步参观。
Kill two birds with one stone: Learn about your destination and battle loneliness at the same time. Walking tours are a great way to orient yourself, as well as meet other adventure-seekers discovering the same place as yourself. In all cases, strangers, became friends, at least for a little while.
一箭双雕:了解你的目的地,同时与孤独做斗争。徒步参观是为自己确定方向的一个好方法。而且,徒步参观会在相同的地方发现和你一样的探险者。不管在什么情况下,陌生人都会成为朋友,至少是一阵子的朋友。

4. Stay In Hostel And Be Sociable.
4、呆在旅舍中,多交际。
Most hostels have common rooms and host community building events. If sharing a room with strangers creeps you out, you can always stay in a private room -- many hostels have them. Prefer to stay in a hotel? No problem. Many hostels post events on their websites, and you don't necessarily have to be a guest to attend. Don't miss out on a prime opportunity to meet other travellers!
大多数旅舍都有公共休息室,而且会举行社区建设活动。如果和陌生人分享一个房间会吓着你,你可以一直呆在包间里——许多旅舍都有包间。比较喜欢呆在酒店里?没问题。许多酒店会在他们的网站上公布他们的活动,不是客人你也可以参加。不要错过与其他游客碰面的好机会。

5. Dress Appropriately.
5、穿着得体。
Yes, I know we should be able to dress any way we want. But try to conform, at least with your clothing, to cultural norms, and dress conservatively in countries (and/or tourist sites) where it is expected.
是的,我知道我们可以按自己想要的方式打扮。但是至少尽量让你的服饰符合文化规范,在要求穿着保守的国家和(或)景区穿的保守一些。

6. Be In Touch.
6、保持联系。
Always have an emergency contact number at hand, and let people at home know your whereabouts. A simple but good idea would be to take a few index cards and write down all pertinent contact information that can be used by yourself and/or others in case tragedy strikes.  Keep them on your person and distribute in case of emergency.
手边始终要有一个紧急联系电话,让家里的人知道你的行踪。一个简单的好方法是拿几张索引卡片,写下你自己可能会用到的所有相关联系方式,和(或)万一发生其他不幸的事情时,会用到的联系方式。随身携带这些卡片,在紧急情况下分发下去。

7. Avoid Negative Attention.
7、回避负面关注。
Sometimes negative attention, in particular from males, cannot be helped. My simple rule is to not engage: I ignore, I deflect, I keep it moving. I don't respond to taunts or negativity. I remove myself quickly from situations where I am a target.
有时候,负面关注,尤其是来自男性的关注,可能是没有法子的。我的简单原则是,不要参与:忽视它,转向一边,不断移动。我不会响应嘲弄或否定。我会迅速远离以我为目标的处境。

8. Find A Sister In Crime.
8、找一个同行的姐妹。
Who better to understand your plight, your fears, and your concerns than another female travelling on her own?
谁会比另一个独自旅行的女性更理解你的境况、恐惧和担心呢?

9. Let your hair down and enjoy!
9、轻松点,玩得愉快!
This goes without saying. Live in the moment. Embrace the experience. And learn to relish in the luxury of your own company.
这是不言而喻的。活在当下,欣然接受你的经历,学会享受独处的乐趣。
