Go to West

今天我的朋友Leylop踏上了去西藏的旅途。

昨晚,她在她的blog上这样写道:
I am reading a Tibet guidebook tonight, the landscapes there are so fascinating, and the temples are just awesome. I always envy people who have been there, but not anymore-- I'll be there in a few days!

Bought the air ticket to Chengdu today (2.5 hours by plane, 43hours by train), I'll leave Hangzhou tomorrow, and I'll do it alone. Since I've got some unpleasant experience of traveling with groups, I'll leave them this time. And still couldn't find any travel partner, some say they're busy, some say these areas are too remote and dangerous, and some say the trip costs too much... I don't have much money either; I'll take all I have, probably still not enough, but I think I could save some money by staying in cheap hotels, eating street food as main meals or something... And I'm fine with traveling alone too. At least I'm totally free, which might be the best way to experience the real feeling of travel.

As for travel plan, I'lll go to Sichuan province first, visiting Chengdu, JiuZhaiGou, Huanglong Scenic Area , Emei Mountain and Giant Buddha of Leshan . And then move to Tibet area. Not sure how long the trip takes, more than two weeks I guess. If I still have some money left after finishing Sichuan and Tibet trip, I’ll go to more places. If not, I’ll go home by train. Never been on a train for more than 3 hours, it'd be interesting to be sitting in one seat for two days and two nights.

I probably couldn't update my blog for a while, I'm sure I’ll miss it a lot. But I think I can bring lots of pictures when getting back, and write about my travel stories.

See you in two weeks

从刚认识她那会儿开始,我一直很佩服这个女孩子。我常常对别人说做人应该率性而为,自己却经常做不到,倒是这个女孩子让我真正感受到什么叫率性而为。西藏,我也特别想去,但怎么也下不了决心,而她不同,想去就去,而且还是单枪匹马。我祝她一路顺风。
