自己隻身出國旅行,我想應該是很多都無法做到的,因為,這需要十足的勇氣,當然,你自己本身的語言能力也要可以溝通,並且,要敢說、敢問。在國外,最有用的就是你的嘴巴。路真的是長在嘴上。很重要的是,把自尊和面子放下。這兩樣東西,在人身地不熟的國外是完全派不上用場。台灣人大部分都喜歡跟團,有些人雖然曾經出國自由行,但也很少獨自一個人,通常還是會希望有個伴,至少有個照應。讓我們來看看成為一個成功的背包客有哪些秘訣吧!

 

1. Learn to like your traveling companion: You

"But I'll be lonely!"

It's perhaps the most common cry from people who've never traveled alone.

"No: You won't," writes Andrew O'Hagan in a New York Times blog

"My solo travels in Paris have brought many perfect hours of being alone but not a moment of loneliness," he writes.

"People who depend on other people are often in hiding from themselves."

學著喜歡跟自己旅行,並且和自己相處。很多人會覺得自己出國很孤單,其實不然,到了國外,你會遇到許多意想不到的人事物,會讓你一點也不覺得孤獨。

 

2. Revel in your selfishness

 

Having no one but yourself to decide what to do each day is a rare luxury.

 

Imagine: no one to sneer if you want to find the local art house cinema and watch old black-and-white movies all day.

 

No one to sigh over your love of tractor museums.

 

No one to gripe when you whip through a gallery in 30 minutes instead of taking the tour.

 

自己旅行的一大好處就是,你不用遷就任何人,也不需要因為遲到誤點而必須跟任何人道歉

 

3. Lose the invisible"Helpless Rube"sign

 

Nothing says"clueless" like standing on a street corner with a huge map and terrified expression.

 

The key to traveling solo is looking confident, even if you don't always.

 

The U.S. Peace Corps has this advice for travelers: "Walk confidently ... and wear sunglasses if you need to walk with your head held high."

 

More specifically: when traveling alone, always go into a shop or doorway to consult a map.

 

一個人旅行必須要展現十足的自信,不要顯露出一臉疑惑。可以的話,隨處問店家路怎麼走

 

4. Be realistic about the dangers

 

To anyone who fears that traveling alone invites danger, remember that you could (but hopefully won't) just as easily be robbed or assaulted when getting about alone in a town or city at home.

 

Foreign places aren't necessarily more dangerous.

 

獨自行動有其危險性,不過,並不表示獨自出國就一定是危險的

 

5. Take yourself out to dinner

 

The thought of dining alone terrifies some people.

 

The fear even has a name: solomangarephobia.

 

But giving into it and relying on grab-and-go fast food when traveling alone is a crime against cuisine.

 

It's also a good way to make new friends -- even if you didn't intend to.

 

很多人都害怕獨自用餐,身為背包客,最好的選擇就是買外帶! 如果真的要用餐,也說不定會因此認識新朋友喔~

 

6. Go easy on the social media

 

The eventual pleasure of being reunited with friends and family is all the greater for holding off contact a bit.

 

So ration the SMS messages, emails and Skype calls and actually pay attention to what's going on around you.

 

The more stories you don't blog about on the road, the fresher they'll be when you get back home.

 

在國外旅行,就把facebook和手機都拋在腦後吧,只要讓家人知道你平安,多花時間在當下遇到的人事物,把post照片留到回國之後在弄吧

 

7. How to save money (you won't)

 

Traveling solo you can't share the price of a room or a meal, nor will you save on a companion fare.

 

The point is, accept that in some ways, in certain circumstances, traveling alone is more expensive than traveling with others ... then imagine the benefits of this arrangement.

 

獨自旅行就必須要有覺悟,費用會比多人旅行貴上許多,但是,多出的自由卻遠遠超越金錢所能衡量的
