  Recently, in Chongqing local forum, a post entitled "There was a dream at that time, about traveling across the world" became popular. The poster is a post-90 s boy, who has illustrated his travels in more than 40 countries around the world in the past few years.

  Over the past month or so, more than 70,000 netizens have followed this post. Netizens said that it is not possible to travel abroad for the time being because of the epidemic, and the "cloud tour" is also very enjoyable.

  Tales of talent

  -the meaning of travel

  "For an adventurous person like me, it is the meaning of travel to get out of the cramped space of daily life, let my heart fly, broaden my horizons and experience different wonderful things every day."

  Riding Xizang ignites the dream of travel.

  Last weekend, the reporter met the poster Mr. Lei, 28 years old, in Jie Fangbei, Yuzhong District. He is tall and handsome. He is a native of Chongqing and works in hair design. Mr. Lei said that relatives and friends around him like to call him Xiya, and he also hopes to share stories with readers under this name.

  In 2013, 20-year-old Lucy also fell in love with travel. At that time, he was engaged in hair design in Shanghai, and the pressure of life and work made him breathless. I accidentally read a report about "a man riding a bike to travel to Xizang". At that moment, Lucy also felt as if she was ignited by something and was eager to try it. Soon he quit his job and spent 24 days riding 2,100 kilometers to Xizang. "This is my first trip, and my world outlook has opened up. Since then, it has become out of control, which has become my hobby."

  Later, after spending more than two years traveling around the country, Lucy began to travel around the world.

  Travel to more than 40 countries around the world

  From 2016 to 2019, West Asia spent nearly half of its time abroad. He has visited more than 40 countries in Asia, Africa, Oceania, North America and South America. Therefore, the journey of these years has left me the most wonderful time.

  Haikao diving card

  In September, 2017, Xi Ye arrived in Daharb, a small town on the Egyptian Red Sea, and decided to learn a new skill here-taking the diving certificate, which is almost the cheapest place in the world to take the diving certificate.

  Lucy also said that diving is only interesting and beautiful on TV, but it is not easy to find it when you practice. Need to overcome the fear of the sea, external weather factors, ear pressure and air pressure. After five days’ practice, Xixi also ushered in the graduation exam in Hadabu Ocean Blue Cave, the third deepest ocean blue cave in the world. It looks clear and calm, and it is very easy to enter, but it is known as "the deadliest diving spot on earth", and even the tombstones erected by people to commemorate the dead divers stand on the coast.

  During the exam, perhaps because the pressure in the sea here is too high, Xiye’s ear pressure can’t be balanced all the time, which leads to severe ear pain and has been unable to dive. In the end, Lucy forced herself to calm down, repeated the ascent and dived again and again, and finally found the balance of ear pressure, completed the diving test at a depth of 30 meters and got the diving certificate.

  Land on the volcano

  Lucy also said that in the northeast of Ethiopia, Africa, Erta Ale volcano is one of the few remaining lava lakes in the world.

  In October 2017, Xi also accompanied several foreign companions with the same adventurous spirit and invited a local guide to start a trip to the volcano in the evening. It took more than four hours to climb the mountain, stepping on the black road formed by magma condensation along the way, and looking up at the crater with red light, it felt very magical.

  When they really arrived at the crater, they were covered with smoke everywhere. When the wind dispersed the smoke, everyone finally got a glimpse of the whole volcano-the fiery magma was surging, and the sound of "rumbling" when the magma generate was heard, but the whole fire was bottomless and went straight to the center of the earth. "At that moment, I felt that nature was too magical, I was too small, and I was full of awe."

  That night, Xiye and his companions lay 100 meters away from the crater for one night, just to see the lava lake during the day. "I remember that the starry sky was beautiful that night, but the volcano after dawn was not as shocking as it looked at night."

  Skydiving at high altitude

  "Skydiving from an altitude of more than 4,000 meters is really a wonderful experience." In March 2017, Lucy also came to Australia and tried her first skydiving on a farm. He had never even tried bungee jumping before.

  Lucy also said that after climbing to an altitude of more than 4000 meters in a small helicopter, he parachuted under the guidance of his coach. When I opened the cabin door, I looked at the white clouds floating at my feet, and Lucy, who has always been keen on adventure, became a little nervous.

  At the moment when I closed my eyes and jumped off, Lucy was very dizzy. After about 10 seconds, I gradually found a balance. "When I rushed to the earth in a hug posture and rushed to the beautiful scenery such as lakes, oceans and mountains that are getting closer and closer, it felt really wonderful."

  cost

  Save money for fancy travel

  Lucy also said that all the expenses of her trip were saved during her work, and the funds were relatively limited, so she has always been a poor traveler.

  Eat: bring a pot and noodles and try to cook it yourself.

  Every time she goes abroad, Lucy will carry three bags, one on her back, one on her back and one hanging on her chest. In addition to computers, cameras, mobile phones and daily necessities, the bag also contains hot pot bottom materials, bagged Chongqing noodles, side dishes for meals, electric cookers, etc., to ensure that you can cook as much as possible outside and save food expenses. "I once shared our Chongqing hot pot with many foreign netizens, and they all praised it while shouting spicy."

  Accommodation: Youth hostel or cheap homestay.

  When staying outside, Xiye will choose to live in a youth hostel or a cheap homestay. One of the most frustrating times was in Pakistan. At that time, there was no running water to take a bath, and I was as clean as myself. I could only take a bath with snow mountain water at low temperature.

  OK: Take a bus on foot or share a car.

  In terms of transportation, in the city, we will try our best to choose walking or taking public transportation. When you go to the suburbs, you can rent the same car as your fellow travelers. When crossing different countries, they will choose to travel by car as much as possible to save transportation expenses. "I once waited for a multinational car at the African border and learned that the car would not arrive until early the next morning. I was afraid of missing the car and had no choice but to stay in the bullpen near the station for one night."

  News face to face

  Pay attention to these when traveling abroad alone.

  Q: You can’t travel abroad for the time being. What’s your plan?

  Xiye: When the epidemic is completely over, I will continue to travel around the world, and the world still has an infinite journey waiting for me to measure and explore. Now all I can do is to work hard and save money.

  Q: Traveling around the world alone is cool. What experience do you have to share?

  Xiye: First of all, I need the support of my family. My parents believe that I have the ability to take care of myself independently, but they also support me to travel. Secondly, we should consider the language problem. My initial English vocabulary is very small, but the advantage is that I dare to say that when I travel abroad, I will use words plus body language and draw pictures to communicate with people. Secondly, we should be prepared to face adversity. For example, when I was playing in the desert of India, I was suddenly bitten by a camel with my team and had to go to the hospital for rabies vaccination.

  Q: How can individuals protect themselves when traveling abroad?

  Xiye: In foreign countries, I insist on writing a travel diary in my circle of friends every day, which not only locks up the beautiful moments, but also lets my relatives and friends know my itinerary and feel at ease. In addition, be sure to bring a small chest bag or purse with you, such as cash, passport, mobile phone and other valuables, and never leave your sight; Try not to go to remote and deserted places alone. It will be better to choose a team and invite local people to be guides.

  Q: Can you recommend two more characteristic treasure punch points?

  Xiye: Lake Bandamir in Bamiyan, Afghanistan. Six sapphire lakes form a group of lakes, like clear sapphires. The pyramids of Mexico, the pyramids here are different from the pyramids of Egypt in that there are steps to climb to the top and overlook the whole ancient city.
