　　“Traveling involves so much stress! Preparation is especially hard - trying to arrange the transportation, accommodation, and time off from work. Packing isn't easy. How can you possibly know everything you may or may not need in a place that's largely unknown to you? Assuming you ever reach your destination, you have to communicate with people who often don't speak your language and you have to navigate your way around an area you have no idea about. How are you supposed to relax under such conditions? And all that money you're spending! For what? I don't get it at all.”

　　--George Threadborne, disgruntled traveler

　　旅行的壓力太大了。準(zhǔn)備工作尤其艱難，要安排交通、食宿，還要告假。行李收拾也不容易。在一個(gè)你一無(wú)所知的地方，你怎么可能預(yù)料什么對(duì)你有用什么又對(duì)你沒(méi)用?假設(shè)你到達(dá)你的目的地，你必須和那些通常不和你講同一國(guó)語(yǔ)言的人交流。還要在一個(gè)你毫不熟悉的地方探路。在這樣的情況下你怎么可能放松?還有，想想旅行要花的錢(qián)!這到底是為了什么?我可不知道。

　　--不滿的旅客 喬治•斯瑞得
