Sometimes the best travel companion you can have is yourself. I’ve learned that solo travel can be totally liberating and completely rewarding in a way few other experiences in life can match.
First, you will get to know yourself better. Traveling alone exposes you to raw experiences in which you get to know your inner self. Once you are out there on the road on your own you will be faced with decisions you need to make and fears you need to overcome. You will discover your true self and what you are capable of.
Second, it is liberating to disconnect for a while and be content with the moment – with the view and with one's own thoughts. The mind needs to be free at times to be creative, to think clearly and to refresh itself. One is then also able to look at life with some distance and think about future goals with a fresh set of eyes.
有時候, 旅途中最好的伴侶是你自己。我了解到,獨自旅行可以完全解放和完全回報自己,在生活中很少有其他的經(jīng)驗可以匹配。首先,你會更好地了解你自己。獨自旅行會使你暴露在沒有矯飾的體驗經(jīng)歷中,從而你能了解內(nèi)在的自我。一旦你在在外面在路上,你將面臨需要自己做出的決定和自己克服的恐懼。你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你真正的自我和真實能力。第二,可以暫時杜絕與外界的聯(lián)系并滿足于當下—用自己的觀點和觀點來思考是一種解脫。頭腦有時需要釋放才能有創(chuàng)造力,更清晰地思考和更新自我。然后,你也可以旁觀者清的來看待生活,用全新的眼光思考未來的目標。
