Wu Fang has been used to traveling alone since college. But surprisingly, she never paid attention to "Is it unsafe to travel alone?" .

Wu Fang's graduation trip is to Shangri-La. As usual, she carried a small bag and wore sleeveless hot pants and flew directly to the local area. But just out of the airport, I heard a row of men whistling waiting for passengers. Another person asked her, "Little girl, aren't you afraid of being raped when you come here dressed like this?"

Wu Fang was cheated at that time. After meeting the driver who picked her up, she immediately went to the local market to buy a pair of jeans and put them on, which made her feel at ease.

After staying in the youth hostel, Wu Fang was still thinking about that sentence. Although it didn't cause much trouble, it undoubtedly cast a shadow over the original good mood. At this time, the foreign boy Andrew she met made her full of enthusiasm and expectation for this trip again.

Andrew once asked Wu Fang for directions. When they met again in the youth hostel, they had a few words. Andrew joined a hiking club online and planned to go hiking in Tiger Leaping Gorge the next day. But he can't speak Chinese, he hasn't met his scheduled companions, and he hasn't bought good equipment. Wu Fang asked him, "You won't be cheated, will you?" He smiled and said no, because he was fully prepared. The next day, he set out with a group of old ladies and grandfathers.

At that moment, Wu Fang asked himself, "Since you have made careful preparations and strategies before you leave, what is there to worry about?" ? Always pay attention to safety issues and enjoy the journey. "

Later, Wu Fang met a Tianjin boy who wanted to go to Tibet alone, a Guangdong girl who liked hiking, and an office worker who went out to play because of his unsatisfactory work. Four people got together and formed a temporary walking group in Yubeng Village to climb the snow-capped mountains and see the glaciers, and spent three pleasant days.

For Wu Fang, she likes to travel alone because she pays more attention to the satisfaction of personal needs. Many group tours can't fully satisfy her preferences. Sometimes, an appointment with a friend is not where she wants to go. Moreover, she likes photography and will spend a lot of time looking for seats and waiting for opportunities. She doesn't want her peers to cooperate with her or find someone else. "I can go wherever I want to go temporarily, which is very free."

It's thrilling and embarrassing.

Lone Ranger ID: Yang Yang

Single flight time: 12 years

In the past 12 years, Yang Yang traveled alone. Why do you like traveling alone? "Because I found that even the best friends, we sometimes have differences." Yang Yang said that traveling alone means that you can feel the freedom of travel and the happiness of holidays to the maximum extent. "And I like the place is a bit partial, unpopular. Instead of letting others indulge me and accompany me, it is better to play as you want. "

On the way alone, there are thrilling, uneasy and amazing warmth.

One winter, Yang Yang flew from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening when he got off the plane. She chartered a car to the scenic spot, but the mountain road was remote and difficult to walk, and there were no street lights. In the dead of night, the driver is a man, and his generous heart can't help playing drums. She pretended to call a friend, "said her itinerary, said the license plate number and asked the driver's name." The driver noticed her behavior and smiled brightly: "Sister, I am not a bad person!" " "The tension on the night road was slowly resolved by the pleasant conversation atmosphere of two people.

On the return trip, Yang Yang decided to go to the airport early. The plane was at 9 pm and she left at 5 pm. Who knows, after getting on the bus, the driver told her, "The airport didn't open so early." Yang Yang doesn't believe it. When I arrived at the airport, I found that the airport was really closed! The driver saw it and said that he had a friend who lived near the airport and was a tourist stop. He can take her there to rest. It was very cold at that time, so it was obviously unrealistic to stand outside for more than an hour, and the driver didn't want to wait with her for that long with the air conditioner on. Ok, then go!

"As soon as I opened the door, I saw three strong men eating dinner around a pot." Yang Yang was so surprised that he immediately took out his mobile phone and called his friend to tell him the situation at that time. The three eldest brothers warmly greeted her for dinner and brought her saffron-soaked tea and naan cakes. She ate a cake and talked to them. When the atmosphere is warm, several brothers take turns singing. "A big brother joked that he was an apprentice of Tengger singer and gave me a song" Qinghai-Tibet Plateau "." When I left, a big brother pushed open another door in the inner room. What makes Yang Yang laugh and cry is that this is actually a specialty supermarket! "He told me that it doesn't matter if you don't buy it. But the atmosphere was there, and the previous conversation was very pleasant. I spent 1 0,000 yuan on a box of saffron. "

Of course, traveling alone will be inconvenient. "On one occasion, I went to Chongqing Ordovician scenic spot to play, and there were many people. When I arranged a project called' Horror Swing', the sign said it would take another three hours. " Yang Yang said that she went alone, which means that no one took turns to go to the toilet to eat with her. Row or not? Finally, Yang Yang insisted on the principle of "everyone comes" and stood in line for three hours. "After the epidemic subsides, I want to go to Tibet alone." Say with anticipation.

Swimming alone, never again.

"I like to leave, I like to leave, I like to have new dreams in my life; Qian Shan is full of water and free, no matter what direction the stars guide. "

This is Xi Murong's poem about travel, which is deeply loved by hot mom lady. She thinks this perfectly explains her motivation for traveling.

Lady has traveled alone for three years and has been to Xiamen, Dali and Taiwan Province Province. Why do you travel alone? It's not that she wants to experience the pain and joy of traveling alone, but because she can't find friends to travel with during the annual leave. "I am a sentimental person. I want to leave when I come."

Traveling alone is definitely free, and you can meet some interesting friends on the way. While traveling in Xiamen, Ms. Wang met a girl with the same itinerary online through a local tour group. After chatting for half an hour, she found that the two sides lived very close and met immediately. During their three days in Xiamen, they ate together and traveled together, leaving many good memories. After the trip, I kept in touch and became friends.

In Dali, lady met a beautiful woman from Hangzhou in a circle of friends. The other party is a tourist, a "rich second generation" who has been to many parts of the world alone. On the same day, they spent a wonderful afternoon tea in the coffee shop near Erhai Lake in Dali. The next day, they rode an electric car around the sea and ate Yunnan special hot pot together ... Last year, the other party got married and sent an invitation letter to lady, and the two sides forged a special friendship.

More importantly, lady thinks that when a person is in a foreign land, the sense of loneliness and foreign land will always haunt him after the initial novelty has passed. "It's okay to go out and see the scenery during the day. If you stay alone in the hotel at night, that feeling makes you want to pack up and go home at once. " In lady's view, a person's travel is more like a dialogue with the soul, a journey of the soul, and once the travel has the shadow of thoughts, it will not be easy. She likes a trip full of laughter all the way.
