Before the earthquake, Zhangmu was a common port for land transportation from Tibet to Nepal. From Zhangmu Port to Kathmandu, Nepal, it takes up to 10 hours by local minibus. The actual distance is not far, mainly because the road conditions are not good, and the car drives bumpy and slow. When I got into the car with my bag on my back, the car was already full of people, and even chickens and ducks were packed in cages to occupy the aisle. There’s almost nowhere to rest, let alone find a seat. Before the car opened, an elder sister on the back seat suddenly got up and got off.…

The young boy tilted his wrist to show me, “Do you know how much this watch is?” Before that, I only talked to him a few words. This man sat next to me smoking a cigarette, and I finally dragged my five-liter mineral water bottle and sat down. I really didn’t want to move my position anymore. I shook my head as I didn’t know. He bared his white teeth and compared numbers. I said a polite “wow”. He continued smoking and I turned my head away. People come and go in Taksim Square, and a little black cat looks at the people coming and going, as if trying to…

Those who travel frequently will find that the sense of time is often disordered. Later, I realized that the way people perceive time turns out to be blurred. When I first arrived in Egypt, my phone automatically displayed two different times. But when I was close to checking out, I realized that what my mobile phone displayed was wrong! The machine didn’t automatically adjust the difference between daylight saving time and winter time, resulting in the mobile phone time being adjusted faster by an hour. When I returned home from Cairo, it was obviously noon. Lunch should have been served on the plane, but the flight attendant said, “It’s dinner…

From “traveling is like aspirin to relieve worries” to “traveling is actually like that”, the change sometimes takes only a few spring and autumn years. “Disenchantment” of travel used to be what I thought was mature. This trip for more than 70 days is the first long-distance trip after many years. The form is still the same as when I used to pack the backpack, but the mood is different. In the past, when I went out, I didn’t need to bring pickled mustard tuber and instant noodles. I always felt that I could adapt to everything, and the food outside was not difficult to swallow. So I still didn’t…

When traveling poorly in Georgia, it is recommended to buy a local transportation card and pay attention to taking advantage of the discount of “limited time transfer free”. If the place you want to go is close, you can calculate the time in advance. About transportation cards It can be handled at the manual counter of the subway station, and the business card printing fee is 2 lari, which can be refunded when not in use. When I applied for the card, I wasn’t sure how many buses I would take. I thought it was more convenient to recharge 5 lari, so I asked the staff to recharge 3 lari.…

Most commonly seen on the streets of Luxor are carriages known as “Ferraris”, where the drivers proudly show their vigorous horses to visitors. The water of the Nile reflects the former glory of ancient Thebes, and the most striking thing at dusk is the silent ruins of temples along the road. The hieroglyphs on the stone carvings record legends that no one can fully translate, and the most vivid sound at the moment is the sound of horses’ hooves on the asphalt road. When the sun was setting, I strolled to the river, saw a downward step, and looked up at the words “mummy”. It turns out that this famous…

The Asia-Europe-Africa Great Loop can almost be said to be the “antidote” for college students’ travel. On the social platform, many college students are excited about this route and finally embark on a journey. But for middle-aged people, this route is full of challenges. After walking around, I personally suggest that middle-aged people choose carefully. The Asia-Europe-Africa Great Loop usually leaves Xinjiang, passes through Central Asian countries such as Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and arrives in the three Caucasus countries-Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia. Then from the Caucasus to Turkey, the Balkans and other places, the last stop is often Egypt, and then take a more than ten-hour flight from Egypt to…

Traveling around the world is indeed desirable, but various factors in reality also need to be carefully considered. Before departing, it is necessary to understand the risks you may encounter during your trip. The first risk is airfare We often have to face various changes during travel, and the unexpected situation of air tickets is sometimes beyond our control. It is necessary to include such accidents in the plan in advance. Cross-border travel also needs to pay attention to the time difference. Don’t rely entirely on mobile phone time, some devices may not automatically recognize the adjustment of daylight saving time and winter time. It is usually recommended to arrive…

Before starting the last leg of the journey, I asked in the group if anyone was traveling with me. Not many people whose routes fit perfectly, and most people have time constraints. The most free people, when asked, all resigned. You have to be a “naked resignation” person who has the most time! Asked about the source of income, it turns out that they are doing the work of “digital nomads”, not really wandering around doing nothing. Speaking of digital nomads, Dali is famous in China, while Bali may be famous abroad. Because of the comfortable environment and low cost of living, many people can live in the local area…

As a person with almost zero historical knowledge, who would have thought that he didn’t even know the word? I never thought that after living for decades, I might not even recognize the numbers. But this is indeed my real experience-the “Arabic numerals” used in Egypt are completely different from what we usually know. Egyptians speak Arabic, but if you leave without doing your homework, you could have a complete meltdown while taking a taxi. All the questions spew out at the moment of seeing the taxi on the road: What about Arabic numerals? What are those winding license plate numbers? Egypt’s license plate does consist of Arabic numerals, but…
