I am over 50 and suffering from ailments. I want to relieve my stress by traveling. I have limited financial resources. Is it feasible?

Your problem is a common problem among people in their fifties. People of this age are basically looking for help due to illness. Due to physical problems, they also cause financial problems. So don’t worry, especially if you have the idea of ????relieving stress through travel, it is very correct.

Let’s start with the problem of diseases when people are over fifty. This problem is a common one. When people reach this age, due to the decline of their body functions, they become sick and seek help from others. This is a normal phenomenon. Many people around me have suffered from waist problems, diabetes, high blood pressure and other diseases during this period. While they are actively taking medicine for treatment, they are also actively exercising, such as running, playing table tennis, going to the gym and other sports. Nowadays, they are getting better, and some people have basically recovered their physical functions. So don’t be afraid of illness, and only by exercising actively can you recover.

Besides, I want to rely on traveling to relieve stress. It is commendable to have this idea. As far as I know, many people are trapped by illness and take travel to relieve stress. The effect is particularly good. Some people with cancer have recovered in the end. When people are sick, they tend to avoid going out and sit at home thinking wildly. This is actually very bad for the body. When we leave our homes and immerse ourselves in nature, people will feel comfortable physically and mentally and forget about their own illnesses; natural air and appropriate exercise can help people restore their health as quickly as possible. So traveling is a good way to relieve stress.

Finally, there is the issue of limited economy. If the economy is limited, then you should do what you can according to your own economic conditions. You can travel to some nearby places or go to some affordable places. These should not be a problem. The purpose of traveling is to relieve stress, relax body and mind, and appreciate nature. This will gradually relieve stress and restore the body. If you keep doing it, you will see a different yourself. So, in response to your question, "I am over 50 and suffering from aches and pains, and want to relieve my stress by traveling, but my finances are limited. Is it feasible?" I can definitely tell you that it is absolutely feasible.

I think it is feasible, let me talk about my personal experience. Take me as an example. I am a person who spends his life traveling [呲呲]. I was born in 1970. I have always liked to go out and play since I was a child. My childhood ideal was to be a bus conductor. I think the conductor on the bus can travel around. , you can travel without spending money.

I was diagnosed with rectal cancer in August 2018, underwent resection surgery in September, and underwent chemotherapy for half a year. The chemotherapy ended in March 2019. A disease made me understand the preciousness of time and that life will not wait. When I had an idea, I acted immediately. As soon as I finished the chemotherapy, I went to Guizhou for a tour. I went to get my driver's license again. In May, I got my driver's license as I wished, which gave me the wings to fly and started my self-driving journey. In mid-June, I drove my sister and my parents through the Qinling Mountains. , starting from Zhongwei, passing through Taibai County, Huayang Ancient Town and arriving at Hanzhong. At the end of June, my husband and I took my parents to see Guanshan Grassland. In mid-July, I drove to Gannan with my parents and sister. At the end of August and the beginning of September, I drove to Xinjiang with my second brother and second sister-in-law. In mid-October, I took my parents and sister to Tianshui and Longnan to see the autumn scenery. From November to now, I haven’t dared to go far away due to weather and health issues, but I have gone out to nearby places almost every day. Recently, I plan to take my parents for a walk along the Yellow River Highway when the weather gets warmer in April.

In fact, I think it doesn’t cost much to go out for fun, and I don’t travel every day. For example, if I go out by car, it won’t cost much if everyone shares the cost equally. My finances are limited and my work efficiency is not good. My salary is just over 2,000 per month, and I also spend a lot on medical treatment. But as long as it is your interest, you can save some money in other places and budget more for travel. When I take a trip to Xinjiang, for example, I live in the car the whole way, which saves me money on accommodation. The gas and highway fees are not much if three people share them equally. We can eat good food and it doesn’t cost much. We After playing for 15 days, I spent a little more than 3,000 and less than 4,000 yuan, so don’t think too much, just do it [呲呲]

Photo description (1 is my illness Records, 2 to 3 were taken in Xi'an when I was hospitalized for surgery, 4 and 5 were taken in Guizhou, 6 was taken in Huayang Ancient Town, 7 and 8 were taken in Gannan, and 9 was taken on the Duku Highway in Xinjiang) < /p>

Absolutely. Tell me about things around me. Our self-driving tour group is a large group of more than 1,000 people. Fifty to sixty people over the age of 60 suffer from various cancers and serious heart disease. When they first got sick, they felt quite stressed. Living with fear and depression. After joining the self-driving group, everyone gets together often, travels together, and has fun together. When we were driving in Tibet and Xinjiang in 2015, there was a woman in her 50s who was suffering from three types of cancer. The doctor concluded that she would not survive for a year, but she did not believe in evil and insisted on following the team. She also traveled through Tibet and Xinjiang, covering a total distance of more than 16,000 kilometers. More than four years later, she is still driving by herself. This winter she went to Xishuangbanna again.

Brother Xing in the group was already 74 years old and had cancer for 12 years. When he knew I was going to drive to Europe by myself. Determined to go with me. I was moved by his spirit. In 2017, we drove together in Europe.

The total journey is more than 27,000 kilometers. He also successfully ran down with me. I’ll post some pictures of him at the end of this post. Can you tell that he is a cancer patient who has been suffering from cancer for more than 10 years?

No matter what disease a person suffers from. As long as the spirit is not down, you will be full of energy. These seriously ill patients in the group often joke, "People don't die of illness, they die of fear." Our group is a real-name group. I haven't received any cancellation instructions from them so far. This shows that they are all alive, living tenaciously and driving happily. I hope those friends who are unfortunately sick can cheer up and enjoy travel, self-driving and life. Happiness lies ahead. Thank you for your attention.

I think it’s okay to travel nearby, but don’t go far away. Because you are suffering from illness and have limited financial conditions. Everyone knows that traveling can relax your mind and relieve stress. That is treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. It is often said that the spirit rules everything. It is a fact that when you feel better, your pain will be relieved a lot. But if you think about it carefully, traveling is about enjoying life. The expenses must be huge, especially for long-distance travel. If you are reluctant to spend money, your body will suffer. You are in pain yourself, can you bear it? Plus your finances are limited. Besides, traveling is also an activity that consumes a lot of physical strength and energy, and you probably won’t be able to support it. Because even healthy people may end up with sore backs and legs after a day of sightseeing.

I think you should use your limited financial resources to treat diseases. While treating the disease, chat with close friends. Accompanied by family members, go to the nearby attractions where you are. Isn’t it still a way to relax and relieve stress? The expenses are small and the journey is short, isn’t it good for both the economy and the body?

People have no choice but to do it when they reach middle age, not to mention that they are now 50 years old and suffering from injuries. If you choose to travel, then I can tell you that this depends on your time planning. Next we will talk about it carefully and discuss it. It takes a long time

My body is now 50 years old. A 50-year-old person will definitely not be the same as our 20-year-old body. If you want to choose to travel for a long time, then I want to tell you first, consider repeatedly. After all, traveling is a very painful thing, and it is not really possible to improve your body through traveling.

Travel just allows you to broaden your horizons, see the outside world, and see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. But it has nothing to do with your injury. If you choose to travel for a long time, it depends on whether your body can endure the long-term journey.

There are people around me who are traveling at this age, and like us, they want to be a travel creator. But they basically travel around the city. And the cost is not very high, so traveling around is suitable for you.

How to choose a place far away? If the place is relatively far away, then they will choose attractions in a certain city. Go to other cities and take a train there, and then you don’t have to be too pressed for time. And you can choose to return after staying in a certain city for a day or two.

So the group of people around me will not stay outside for too long. After all, traveling is very tiring. 50 years old should be about enjoying life and enjoying retirement time. If you still choose to travel, it will be relatively tiring. If you are traveling for a long time, I still suggest you consider whether your body can do this. Time is short

If you are short on time and want to travel, it is okay. Buying a train ticket and walking around somewhere in a city is quite good.

The whole trip is basically about eating and having fun, and you don’t have to stay in other cities for too long. You don’t have to walk too many places or carry a lot of things, so this is the advantage of being short in time.

If you spend all your remaining time traveling, it’s still not a good idea. I feel that at the age of 50, this person must enjoy life, go to other places and simply travel.

I still recommend you here, just go there occasionally. Go to another place every few days to look around and then come back. After a few days, I go to another city to look around and life is so comfortable. And the expenses are within your control, so you don’t have to spend randomly. Personal advice

Your current body is obviously not as good as those of us in our twenties and thirties. If you have an accident while traveling, you will be injured for 100 days. What's more, your current physical fitness is no longer as resilient as it was when you were young.

Travel itself is a very beautiful thing, but travel is beautiful, but there are dangers around it, so if you can't take care of it, there is still a certain degree of danger.

But here, it cannot be denied that you cannot choose to travel. Although there are some physical injuries at the age of 50, from a person's core, he must have the energy to refuse to admit defeat.

I have been to Huangshan, and I have seen many people in their fifties and sixties climbing Huangshan.

The most common thing I hear them say is "I still want to challenge myself at this age", so if you want to choose travel, I still support you.

If you want to travel, you still have to ask your family if they agree. In terms of consumption, travel is a big expense after all. If you rely on tourism to relieve stress and your budget is limited, then traveling around is the most suitable option.

Yes, as long as you have time, you can take a tricycle and bring rice steaming utensils. It doesn’t cost a lot of money, and you can just pray for others’ support along the way. See more beautiful scenery along the way. As long as you are happy, your health will slowly get better.

The first thing that is certain is that it is feasible.

Let’s first talk about the current situation of people over fifty. In terms of economics, if you are a working-class person, you will have a small amount of savings, but not too much, because everyone at this age will buy a house. Nowadays, housing prices are so high, and they usually also buy a car, so there won’t be too much. Savings; After the age of 50, children generally get married and have children. Taking care of children has become an inescapable topic. Moreover, a child can last for more than ten years. From birth to kindergarten to elementary school transportation, we do not help our children. Well, they really don’t have time, and we feel sorry for our children from the bottom of our hearts, so we dare not hire a nanny. From time to time, there are reports in the news of nannies abusing children; when we are over fifty, our elderly are also in their octogenarian years. I am now one of four old people, the youngest is 81 years old, and the oldest is 91 years old. They are hospitalized in turns. One day has a bad heart, and the next day the blood sugar is high. Our own bodies have also begun to have problems, big and small. Today I feel pain here. The pain I feel tomorrow is an example. I am 54 this year, and I feel that I have few good areas from head to toe. I have fundus problems, stomach problems, lumbar disc herniation, knee pain, and occasional swollen feet...At this age, In fact, the pressure is still quite high, but what can we do? In one sentence: Live well and make yourself happy.

Despite the various situations mentioned above, we can still arrange travel reasonably. I often use weekends to participate in local outdoor group one-day tours with a limited cost, seventy or eighty yuan or one hundred yuan. For a dollar, twenty or thirty people chatted and laughed. It was also very interesting to go hiking in the surrounding mountains, Baiyangdian, the Great Wall, and ancient towns. In fact, it doesn’t necessarily have to be very far or famous attractions. The key is to see what kind of mood you are in. Go play.

Sometimes money is not the reason why we go or not travel, it just determines how we choose to travel, whether by plane or green train, whether we stay in a high-end hotel or an ordinary inn, but no matter Either way, you will relieve stress and become a person with a story. Flying is convenient and fast, but the green train also has its advantages. It stops at one stop, looks at the scenery along the way, feels the people from all over the world, and listens to them talking about the customs and customs of various places. Time flies by without you noticing. It's over. The most profound experience I had was when I was on the train from Lhasa to Lanzhou. I met a little girl from Shigatse Gyantse County. Her first trip away was to Lanzhou to attend university. I chatted with her for a long time about the popularity of the school. The number of students, daily diet, the attitude of ordinary Tibetans towards Han people, etc., etc., etc., I learned a lot of things that I can't hear or see at the scenic spots.

My current thinking is that as long as I have time, I will arrange travel. If the time is short, I will go to a closer place, and if the time is long, I will arrange a long trip. I don’t want to make myself regret it. As I said: The world is so big , I really want to see it.

I want to live happily in the present and strive to achieve: if I am in good spirits, I will not fall ill; if I am in good spirit, I will recover from my illness; if I am in good spirits, I will recover from my illness soon.

I think it is ok. You can be happy by yourself. Only when you are happy in your middle and old age can you feel better and your body will be better.

Hello, I am a self-driving travel enthusiast and I want to share practical travel tips. , talk about interesting things about your journey

I very much support you to travel, experience a different world, relax your body and mind, a good mood is the best medicine to cure illness, and if you are not in a bad mood, you will be fine

Although I am not fifty and have no serious problems, I was hit by a car when I was a child and almost flew into the sky. From then on, I have learned that life is impermanent, so I never make long-term plans. What I want to do depends on the conditions. Implement it as soon as possible

It is a very lucky thing for a person to be born and live. After seeing many misfortunes, I feel that I can still eat, drink and travel by car without any problems

My mother has very severe diabetes. Since I started driving, I have taken her with me to many places. After walking more, my mentality is really different. She is more open-minded, more optimistic, and she has gained weight

You can decide the way and destination of travel according to your own financial ability. If you don’t go to a big city, it doesn’t cost much to drive by yourself. Two or three thousand is enough to travel around hundreds of kilometers, including food and accommodation. Planning in advance can save a lot of money

This year, I have met many middle-aged and elderly self-driving enthusiasts who are suffering from various diseases, ranging from heart disease to cancer. Take a break, the disease may occur at any time, but without exception, these people have overcome the disease mentally, have an optimistic attitude, cheerful personality, and strong spirit. At least they have lived longer than the doctor said

Spirit Not that it’s the most important thing. If you can understand that every day of your life is earned, you will naturally become happy and won’t study the matter of illness. There are only things in the world that you want to do and those that you don’t want to do. Yes, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome

Finally, I will share a few photos, some of the places I took my mother to this year. I wish you an early departure

Can you still travel despite being sick? Relieving stress is not just about traveling. You can listen to pleasant music, watch interesting stories or TV, participate in some charity activities, play chess with friends, or play ball, run, walk briskly, take a walk, etc. As for illness, you should go see a doctor. Don't let a minor illness turn into a serious one.
