If you want to travel, you must have "four things"

One night, I went for a walk in the park and returned to the community. Entering the gate, the security guard stopped me and told me a true story that happened around him. Once, leader B, who doesn't like traveling abroad, met leader A, who often travels abroad, and asked, "I haven't seen you these days. Have you gone out again?" A leader replied, "I went to the United Arab Emirates." B leader is a little puzzled: "I have heard of basketball and football, but I have never heard of the United Arab League ball." A leader is happy: "Do you know Dubai?" Leader B replied, "I have never eaten dí-bà i."

This conversation sounds like a joke, but it is not fiction at all, because I know these two leaders.

A leader has been to college (he is highly educated at their age), well-informed and open-minded. After retiring for more than 20 years, he himself said that he spent more than 500 thousand traveling around the world. Far away, let's say three years before the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic: in 20 17, I went to Yunnan and Vietnam with the sunset red tour group; 20 18, 8 1 year, and went to Europe with my old men; 20 19 went to Chengdu and a relative who went to the United Arab Emirates. He usually loves reading and studying, insists on watching TV series, knows WeChat and surf the Internet. I remember once he met a problem while watching TV. He called me for advice.

Leader B is very different from leader A, so I don't want to talk about what happened in my past work. He seldom goes out after retirement, let alone travels abroad.

Traveling sounds unfashionable, but it is still incredible for some people. They think: it is not good to hide at home at leisure, and spend money to find guilt; Moreover, it is not safe to fly or ship, so it is better to stay at home comfortably, so as not to worry adults and children.

This is really everyone's own ambition and can't be forced. Such a person won't go out with you even if he doesn't need money to eat and drink for free, let alone let him pay. They are either bankrupt or unwilling to go out.

Therefore, if you want to travel, you must have four things, that is, money, leisure, interest and health.

Money: besides traveling, there is still money left to support the family; The economic base determines the superstructure and the choice of lifestyle.

Leisure: those who are employed have annual leave, and those who are retired are not tired of housework (such as looking after the elderly, children and patients). ), so that they can have enough time or spare time to go out for a walk.

Intention: You must have your own travel will, and this will is voluntary, not forced by others; Even if the economic conditions are not so good, some people like to travel. As long as they have two dollars in hand, they want to go outside. This also shows that the economic foundation is very important, but not absolute.

Have a body: No matter how rich, idle and interested you are, it is impossible to travel without a good body. Moreover, if you are in poor health or sick, if you travel with a group, you will not only be trapped, but also have an impact on other members.

Life is 30,000 days, and each has its own life trajectory. Especially after retirement, how to spend it, each has its own ideas and practices.

I personally belong to the "four haves" group. As long as I have the opportunity to walk, of course I actively choose to travel abroad.

Since I retired for more than 20 years, especially after I fell in love with photography, I have been to many tourist attractions in China and several countries. Traveling broadens my horizons, increases my knowledge, enriches my experience, makes friends, makes me happy physically and mentally, and promotes my health. It's really beneficial and wonderful.

Speaking of tourism risk and safety, it exists objectively, but we should not give up our wishes because of it. Will you be safe even if you stay at home? That's not necessarily true. The more developed the society, the lower the safety index. At home, there will also be threats of floods, fires, house collapses, gas explosions and mudslides, so you need to be extra careful when you go out. People come to this world in the same way, but leave this world in different ways; People live for different lengths of time, but it is the same to leave in the end.

Before the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, I made a very romantic vow: human life is limited, but the development of tourism is unlimited. I would like to dedicate my limited life, limited time and limited pension to the great, unlimited and happy tourism! At present, this oath has met with considerable resistance in practice, but once the epidemic situation stabilizes, I will speed up the pace of tourism and make up for the loss caused by the delay of the epidemic situation.
