Should poor students travel?

Graduation is approaching, and everyone is thinking about going on a graduation trip. This seems to have become an indispensable part of most graduates. Yes, traveling is a good thing. It broadens your horizons and understands different customs and customs. It can also enhance the relationship between classmates. The crux of the problem is: no money. Most of us, when we have no money, call our parents: Mom, I have no money, please give me some money. I’m going shopping with my classmates: Mom, my classmates are all going on a trip, and I want to go too. Give me some money. In school, we never experience the pressure of life, and we never know the feeling of being penniless, because family is our strong backing and the support of all our financial resources.

At the age of graduation, you are already an adult, but you are still confidently asking for money from your parents. Even after graduation, you still need your parents' support to buy a house, and your parents help with the down payment and car. Parents help buy and even get married. For many people, parents take care of everything themselves. They have worked so hard to raise us and also help us start a family and start a business. Isn’t this our own business? What are the young people of our generation missing? There was a popular article some time ago: Your parents are still struggling, but you are talking about poetry and distant places. This nakedly reflects the thinking of our generation. We squander the money sent by our parents without restraint, but we never Don’t think about where the money comes from.

A roommate went to war this year in order to be admitted to the graduate school of her dream university. This was originally such an inspiring thing, but I asked her: What will you do after you graduate? Where to live? How to pay for living expenses? She said: These are not things that I worry about. My mother will definitely find a solution for me. I just need to concentrate on reading. Sister, you are 23 years old, and you are still so naive thinking that your parents will do everything for you. You are no longer the 18-year-old you who took the college entrance exam. At that time, you could only read books about sages. Now that you have graduated, why are you so embarrassed? Do you still rely on your family for everything?

The meaning of travel itself is very good, and it should be within the scope of our ability. And I think traveling should be done with one or two like-minded people. Go where you want to go and quietly listen to the sounds of that place. You don’t have to go to the popular attractions, but go to the street restaurants that best represent the characteristics of that city’s life. lane. A classmate, when she was in college, used the money she earned from working during the winter vacation to go to Chengdu alone. On the train, she read the books she wanted to read. When she arrived in Chengdu, she did not follow the crowd and go to the famous scenic spots. , but went to the alleys where you can feel the atmosphere of Chengdu life, slowly drank tea, chatted with the locals, and listened to the opera. I went to Chengdu once and really experienced the life of Chengdu people. This kind of trip is a meaningful trip.

But most of us want to be happy and lively, and a group of people go traveling in a hurry. Perhaps this cannot be called traveling. I visited one scenic spot after another as if I was in a hurry. When I got to a place, I took a selfie stick to take pictures. After I finished taking the pictures, people left. The only memory I had in the end was: Hey, this photo was so ugly, wow! This photo is super nice. The meaning of going to that city and that scenic spot is only to take photos of people and scenery. Moreover, with so many people, everyone will definitely have differences. Some people like to visit here, and some people like to visit there. Conflicts often arise, and the originally happy trip ends up unhappy.

Going on a trip with a group of people will give people a herd mentality. They don’t want to go, but everyone goes, and in the end they have to go, forcing themselves to ask their parents for money. What’s the point of such a trip. When you and your parents are asking for money to go shopping, have you ever thought that your parents may have never been away from home for most of their lives? Therefore, I think travel in the true sense is to wait until you have a certain material foundation, go to the places you want to go with a few like-minded people, or alone, and experience different customs and worlds. , instead of spending your parents’ money on meaningless shopping.

The real journey must be experienced with your heart!
