Huangshan · A journey of mountains and rivers, a year of beauty, and a date with you *** to youth

It is said that body and soul are always on the way, but in fact how many people can do it. Instead of saying "I must go out when I finish this busy period" every day, it is better to sit down for a long time and think about how to put the idea on the agenda and turn it into a practical plan to implement.

I still remember that when I graduated from college three years ago, my friends Song and Yi bought tickets for mountain climbing. After my defense was over, the three of them immediately set off for a short graduation trip.

At that time, we met at the top of Wugong Mountain. No matter when and where, as long as you need it, I will definitely go to your city to accompany you.

Time passes quietly in the process of leaves turning from green to yellow and back to green. Three years later, I will graduate from graduate school, and my two friends who have been working for a long time seem to be more anxious to arrange my work than me. Graduation trip.

So the small group of three people began to boil, discussing setting off together again to go to the appointment of youth.

Now that I think about it, I feel very happy. Many things have already been determined. When deciding on the travel destination, we went from Sichuan and Chongqing to Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and then to Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia. After many discussions, we finally made this choice. We visited Huangshan Mountain in Anhui Province, which is not far from everyone, and started our new mountaineering trip.

Because the scene of climbing a mountain together three years ago is still vivid in our minds. Three years later, everyone chose to miss this period of youth in the same way and continue to accompany each other.

After the plan was finalized in mid-February, as the one with relatively free and ample time among the three of us, I naturally took on the task of formulating a strategy for the Huangshan trip.

One month in advance, I started to collect relevant information and check the weather, hoping to prepare a comfortable and relaxing itinerary for everyone. During the subsequent implementation process, I naturally also served as the accountant of the small team. This is a training exercise, and when everyone returns home satisfied, they feel a sense of accomplishment.

Everything was ready. On March 21, the three people couldn’t wait to gather in Huangshan, Anhui from Haikou, Shenzhen, and Dalian respectively. They met for the first time three years after graduating from university. It felt like everyone The changes don't seem to be big. I hope we can always maintain our youth and childlike innocence like this.

It is said that mountain climbing is an activity that tests one’s willpower. As we climbed, we were surprised and moved along the way. Just 10 minutes into the climb, Sister Song from our team was obviously exhausted. Two young ladies who were traveling with us at the foot of the mountain were handing us water and helping us carry things.

The further we go up, the more people we meet going down. Strangers will occasionally ask how long it will take to reach the bottom of the mountain. We will also joke: It’s almost, it’s almost, there are still 30 minutes left. Although it actually still takes 2 hours to travel.

Similarly, we will also receive encouragement from strangers, "It's great that you can climb to the top of the mountain. Come on, come on, we will be at the top of the mountain soon." Every time at this time, we will feel that the world is very beautiful. When we want to give up and feel powerless, there will always be someone who enthusiastically supports you, accompanies you, and cheers you up. In such an atmosphere, we have reached the Bright Summit of Huangshan Mountain without knowing it.

Therefore, life is like climbing a mountain. When facing difficulties, what is needed is the courage to face them and face them with a positive attitude, then all the good things will happen unexpectedly.

Just like when we reached the top of the mountain and encountered a rainy day, we thought that we would not see the sunrise the next day. Who knew that we would not only see the sunrise the next day, but also a double sunrise? Due to the hot and cold weather, we also saw strange landscapes such as clouds and rime that can only be seen for two months a year.

Life is like this, we never know what will happen in the next second. In this case, we must maintain our enthusiasm for the future as always.

When returning from the Five Mountains, one does not look at the mountains; upon returning from Mount Huangshan, one does not look at the mountains. Standing on the top of the mountain, feel with your heart everything that nature has given us, be in awe, let go of all the unhappiness in the past, and only cherish you who are by my side.

Thank you for meeting you in the bravest and most beautiful youth, doing what we want to do, and getting closer to the person we want to be.

Landscapes are as beautiful as lovers. It must be said that the trip to Huangshan Mountain, in addition to the fantastic scenery, the simple folk customs here also left a deep impression on us. We have changed our bad impression of tourist attractions as deceiving people in the past.

From the moment we arrived at Kunlun International Youth Hostel, the lady at the front desk enthusiastically gave us Huangshan travel guide;

Those of us staying in the urban hotel can get free the next day Store your luggage and receive hiking poles at the store at the foot of the mountain;

Find a restaurant in Tangkou Town to eat. The owners are super nice. They have affordable prices and delicious food. They provide hiking for free. Maps and reminders for us;

The aunt who sells Huangshan sesame cakes happily provided us with the food bags we needed, and also gave us specialties to taste...

Bit by bit Details may not seem like much to us, but that's how people are. We only know how to cherish them when we lose them.

When traveling, the most fearful thing is to be cheated. Here we feel the long-lost warmth of humanity. It seems that we have found the hometown of human kindness. We can put down our guard against traveling and truly enjoy this nature. A gift to relax your mind that is tired from work and study.

I believe that each of us has a magnetic field that will attract similar people to us. I'm glad that we in our youth have gone through all the troubles in the world and still remain simple and kind.

That’s why when we lost the trekking poles from the hotel, we didn’t take any chances. When communicating with the store about the compensation plan, we gained the trust of the boss and didn’t ask us to compensate;

That’s why we saw When the old lady was selling hiking items and no one was interested, she took the initiative to buy them, not because of need, but more out of her heart;

That’s why when we returned to the high-speed rail station, we believed that the owner of a strange restaurant had done it for us. With the chartered car service, we unexpectedly got the driver to explain the popular science of tea leaves all over the mountain. The lovely driver must not have known that we, who were so tired from climbing the mountain, fell asleep so soundly during his explanation, and the scenes of drinking tea were all in our dreams.

Thank you, strange Huangshan people, for making us more convinced that there must be people like us in this world, who are simple and kind-hearted, traveling across mountains and rivers, and meeting each other somewhere in the future. Accompany you for a journey and warm you for a lifetime.

On the way back, I wrote this in my circle of friends, "The appointment on the top of the mountain three years ago, it feels so good to realize it together three years later, to commemorate our 7 years of friendship."

So at this time when everyone is busy writing thesis when they are about to graduate, my travel is undoubtedly the envy of many classmates in school.

To be honest, I have not finished my thesis, and my friends who are traveling with me still have jobs, but this does not prevent us from traveling, challenging ourselves, and doing more things.

The reason why we dare to do this is that we have all made our own study and work plans, completed our main phased tasks before coming out, and constantly learned to balance our life, work and study.

During this process, I understood that instead of sitting in the teaching and research room watching variety shows and playing games all day long, and the time for real scientific research may only be 2 hours a day, it is better to concentrate, master methods, focus on efficiency, and break down tasks. Then execute and review efficiently.

In this way, you can relax yourself before completing a small task. The combination of work and rest will keep us in the best condition at all times.

So it does not mean that you are studying and doing scientific research just because you have been in the teaching and research section. It does not mean that your performance will improve if you work overtime until late at night every day.

Exploring the most effective and comfortable way to live a good life is a required course for each of us.

I still remember that when I had a partner before, I never thought about it when I went out, because with his presence, I felt reassured. There was a time when he commented to me like, "Are you stupid in school, and you don't even know how to hate me?" This made me, who was once confident, start to doubt myself.

Is it true that I can’t survive in society alone? For this trip, everything from finding guides, planning routes, booking accommodation, purchasing snacks, and the travel consumption rights for three people are all mine. Completed by one person.

Although there were some ups and downs in the journey, this trip made me get to know myself again. I am still the little grass that can survive wherever I am. In the future, I will grow like a pine and cypress on Huangshan Mountain, strong and tall regardless of wind or rain.

As the post-00 generation comes of age, more and more people travel to check in, come and go in a hurry, eat and drink, and then return to the same state.

Many people also ask what the meaning of travel is. I would like to say that during travel, we need to deal with strangers, take care of our fellow travelers, solve unexpected problems, make overall plans, and be attentive. Feeling the exotic locales...all of this will push us to find a better version of ourselves.

When we jump out of a familiar environment, it is a new beginning. Every decision we make is a reaction from our inner consciousness. This is the most authentic self. We need to keep exploring.

When we understand that we live for ourselves and travel, it is a different state of mind.

Finally, I would like to thank my two friends. During my lost time, they accompanied me on the trip without hesitation and fulfilled the promise we made back then.

With this memory, I look forward to the fulfillment of our agreement on the top of Huangshan Mountain - to climb the mountain together when we are 80 years old.
