I am 22. I used to work in a hotel. It was boring.
One day a guest and I had a conversation. She asked me, 6/Do you like your job?" I was sad because I knew the answer. “No".
She was 74 and gave me the most beautiful advice that I remember in all my life: 6/You are too young to hate your job, young man. Go to get your passport and start your advent.ure(冒险 ). "
So I did.
Since I was a little kid I was dreaming to know Europe. So next day I had my passport. And one we ek later, my plane tickets.
It was impossible to have a long holiday. So I resig'ned(辞职). My boss said I was crazy. My friends said that I was not responsible. Ijust paid no attention to those voices.
It was Europe in winter. Not the best time to travel there. But Europe in winter is really cheap.
I packed some books, a camera, 4 shirts, 2 pants, a coat, gloves, 2 pairs of walking shoes, candies and music to give away.
I had little money. I just walked and walked. I went to high mountains and big cities.
saw some beautiful sunsets(日落). I heard some of the best musicians (for free). I discovered that there was still love in the world. I realized that sunrises are not always blue or yellow. Sometimes they mix.
I spent 22 days and $1,500 (including the plane tickets). What I did to save money:
1. Used Couch,Sur fing'(沙发客 ).
2. Ate 20-cents bread.
3. Went to Burger King to get free potato chips and water.
4. Learned to cook.
5. Talked with /oca/(当地的) people. They always know where to do cool and cheap
6. Only went to free museums (only in England).
Until this point in my life, I never had a clear idea of how to deal with my life. Now I do. I want to be a photographer so that I caninspire(激励) people with my pictures.
