世界那么大，你應該去看看

現(xiàn)在網(wǎng)上不是流行那么一句話么，說，世界那么大，我想去看看。說的那么詩意唯美。隨著生活節(jié)奏的加快，人們見到的只有每天擠公交的人群，只有早上透過霧霾隱約可見的太陽，只有晚上昏暗的路燈和匆忙的公交，連看一眼月亮星空的時間都沒有。

恰逢，小編在逛quora的時候見有外國網(wǎng)友在quora上問 What is it like to quit your job, get a backpack and travel the world?

辭掉工作，背上背包就去環(huán)游世界，這是一種怎樣的體驗?

于是小編把文章拿來了。希望大家能夠看完這篇文章之后能夠對生活有一些規(guī)劃，重新定位自己，找到生活的目標和熱情。

Emmanuel Orozco回復說：

Alright. It's my time to give my two cents.

好吧，是該我叨叨兩句的時候了。

Short answer: It is awesome. Do it. You might be dead tomorrow. Do it ASAP.

簡單地說：感覺太棒了。去旅行吧。說不定你明天就死了。所以盡早出發(fā)吧。

Long answer: I am 22. I used to work on a death-end hotel -front desk position.

I was tired.

I wasn't inspired.

詳細地說：我22歲了，曾經(jīng)在胡同盡頭的一家旅館工作——當前臺。

我很累。

活得一點激情都沒有。

One day a guest and I had a long conversation. She asks me:

"Do you like your job?"

有一天，一位顧客和我聊了很久。她問我：

“你喜歡你的工作嗎?”

I was sad because I knew the answer. "No".

She was 74 and gave me the most beautiful advice that I remember in all my life:

"You are too young to hate your job. Pay bills. Plan your retirement.

Go get your fucking passport and start your adventure. Don't wait to have my age."

So I did.

我很難過，因為我知道答案是“不喜歡”。

她已經(jīng)74歲了，給了我一個很棒的建議，令我今生難以忘懷：

“你還很年輕，沒到討厭自己工作的時候。把賬單還掉，工作辭掉。

把護照辦好，然后出去闖一闖。不要等到我這個年紀。”

于是我就照她說的去做了。

Since I was a little kid I was dreaming to know Europe.

So next day I had my passport. And one week later, my plane tickets.

我從小就夢想著能多了解一下歐洲。

于是第二天我就辦了護照。一個星期以后，我就買好了去歐洲的機票。

I live in México. One month holidays does not exist.

So I quit my job.

我住在墨西哥。這世界上沒哪個老板愿意給你一個月的假期。

于是我辭職了。

My boss said I was being crazy. My co-workers said that I was being "irresponsible".

I just ignored those voices and focused on planning my adventure.

我的老板說我瘋了，同事說我“不靠譜”。

這些我全不理會，只是專注地策劃我的旅行。

It was Europe in winter. Not the best idea. I know. But Europe in winter is really cheap.

那時歐洲正值冬天，并不是旅行的最好時機。我知道，但冬天去歐洲旅行真的很便宜。

What I packed:

2. Big coat.

3. Gloves.

6. Mexican candies to give away.

7. Mexican music to give away.

9. 我的相機。(我有臺單反，一直想學但總沒時間)。

That's it. No mobile. No WhatsApp. No Facebook. No f*cking email (I really hate those).

就這些了。沒有手機，沒有WhatsApp(注1)，沒有Facebook(注2)，也沒有那些該死的郵件(我真的很討厭那些郵件)。

Until this point in my life, I never had a clear idea of what to do with my life.
