Should you buy souvenirs when traveling? There seems to be no unique answer to this question. In the past, when I went out, I was often attracted by all kinds of delicate small objects during the journey, and “buy in buy buy” became a subconscious impulse. But later I found that many things can actually be found online, and the prices are often more affordable than scenic shops. At this time, I inevitably feel some regrets in my heart-buying souvenirs during the journey may not only cost more money, but also have to carry them all the way back. If you are traveling with a suitcase, the burden is lighter;…

There are many cats in Turkey, which I have heard for a long time. But when I really set foot on this land, I discovered that the word “a lot” is simply not enough to describe it. At first, I saw a lot of cats in Istanbul. I thought it was because big cities were densely populated and naturally there were many stray cats. After all, it’s a tourist city, and it’s not unusual for cats to be cute. But as the trip went deeper, I realized that there are really many cats in Turkey, not in a relative sense, but in an absolute number! I also saw countless cats…

What first dazzled me in Genoa was the dozen pages of ancient sheepskin scrolls displayed on the wooden table of San Ignazio Monastery, the earliest of which dates back to the 11 th century, and is written on it with academic classics intertwined in Latin and Arabic. There are also edicts of the Ottoman Empire stamped with the coat of arms of the sultan. The other room he passed before leaving contained thousands of similar scrolls. If connected end to end, they could be up to 40 kilometers long. As one of the most important military and economic powers in the Mediterranean in the Middle Ages (rivaled only by Venice),…

At first, I thought that traveling was to escape, but finally I found that the journey was to meet my true self. Some people get lonelier and more lonely, while others get richer and richer. Travel may not change reality, but when time and space change, every moment is reshaping the way you look at the world. The real value of the journey lies not in how many places you have been to and how many magnificent scenery you have seen, but in how many moments you have experienced, what crazy little things you have done, and whether you have met a different self. Sometimes, the deepest touch comes not…

January is often misunderstood as an empty window for travel. At the end of the festival, the world seems to have pressed the restart button, people return to daily life, the weather is cold, and plans are tightened. But for those who really understand the pace of travel, January is precisely the most honest and deepest moment of the year. The crowds recede, the light is low and restrained, and the city and nature no longer perform themselves, but appear as they are. Here is a query aboutEnter rather than pass byOf the months. You can monopolize the shadow of Caravaggio in Italian art galleries; Sitting in a cellar with…

Arequipa, the second largest city in Peru neglected by popular travelers, has not the most dazzling history, and its current spiritual temperament is hardly vivid. However, the strange tension of colonial architectural heritage and modern industrial suburbs, the solitary volcanoes and boundless deserts surrounding them, and the relatively scarce hustle and bustle of tourists, create a contemplative and unique Frontier breath. Once we fly in from Lima, we will stay in a boutique hotel converted from an ancient monastery, with a history as old as the city. Arequipa was founded in 1540 and the following year by the Holy Roman Emperor Officially named by Charles V. Cradle of many Peruvian…
