I used to plan my trips around places I saw other people visit or recommend. I’d build my itinerary around them and feel like I had to see the same spots, or the trip wasn’t complete. A few years ago, that changed. If we don’t make it to everything on the list, that’s ok. I still appreciate recommendations, but instead relying on it I also enjoy doing my own research. We all travel differently. we have different budgets, different tastes, and different ways of experiencing a place. What someone else loves might not be my cup of tea or vice versa. And honestly, sometimes you’ll end up at a place that’s a total flop. But those are usually the stories you laugh about the hardest later. These days, I travel less to recreate someone else’s itinerary and more to follow my own curiosity and embrace spontaneity. The best trips aren’t the ones where everything goes perfectly—they’re the ones that leave us with stories we’ll still be laughing about and telling years later. 以前的我計劃旅行的方式是,看到別人去過、推薦的地方,就會把它們排進行程,總覺得那些地方一定要去到,不然這趟旅行好像就少了點什麼。 幾年前開始,這樣的想法慢慢改變了。 我還是會問、會參考別人的推薦,但現在更喜歡自己做功課。每個人的旅行方式都不一樣,有不同的預算、不同的喜好,也有不同的感受。一個人愛到不行的地方,可能不是我的菜;反過來也是一樣。 而且老實說,有時候還真的會踩雷。但回頭想想,那些踩雷的經驗,往往才是後來大家笑得最開心、聊得最久的故事。 現在的我們,不再想複製別人的旅行,而是跟著自己的好奇心,保留一點隨性,把一些空白留給旅途中的意外驚喜。 最好的旅行,從來不是每件事都照著計畫完美進行,而是多年以後,我們還會一起笑著,聊起那些旅途中發生的大小故事。 這趟旅行還有一個我很喜歡的小插曲。 我們唯一一次搭計程車,是因為要去機場還車。行李都還放在飯店,所以我們兩手空空地上車。 司機看著我們,好奇地問:「你們怎麼沒有行李?」 我們笑著說:「因為只是來還車,行李還在飯店。」 他馬上回:「喔!我還以為你們很有錢,只是飛來 Mallorca 吃個午餐就要飛走。」 John 笑著說:「Yeah, I wish I were that rich.」 司機接著回答:“I’m rich. I have a job, a wife, and two beautiful little girls.” 我們笑了點了點頭。 沒錯,富有從來不只是銀行帳戶裡有多少,而是身邊有愛的人、健康,還有一起分享生活的人。

For us, every trip is about being present and experiencing the moment. We don’t pack our days with endless activities or feel the need to check off every must-see attraction. Instead, we slow down, set aside the responsibilities and busyness of everyday life, and simply allow ourselves to enjoy where we are. We eat, laugh, wander, and spend a week completely carefree. What is the meaning of this annual trip? I think when close friends come together and can enjoy each other’s company without needing too many words, when we can stroll through unfamiliar streets, share great meals, and embrace the simple joy of being present, there’s no need to define the meaning of travel or search for some deeper answer. And for us, the most important part of any trip is actually quite simple: Despite the jet lag, waking up every morning and still having a healthy, regular bowel movement. Honestly, that’s really important. 每次旅行,我們不安排過滿的行程,不刻意追逐必去景點,只是暫時把平日的忙碌與責任放在一旁, 一起吃吃喝喝、一起笑到肚子痛,放慢腳步,活在當下。 你問我們這樣旅行的意義是什麼? 我想,當跟好朋友聚在一起,不需要太多言語,就能自在地分享同一段時光;當我們放鬆地走在異國的街頭,品嚐美食、欣賞風景,好像也不需要特別去定義旅行的意義。 對我們來說,旅行最重要的事情是,雖然有時差,但每天早上起床依然排便順暢。 記得要訂至少有兩個廁所的房間🤣。
