Some people travel because they want to go to warm places for winter vacations or because they want to visit art museums in Europe. But other people travel simply because they have a passion for it.

Luisa Yu, a 79-year-old woman, fell in love with travel as a young girl in the province of Leyte in the Philippines when she watched movies. “I saw the beautiful scenery, the rivers and the mountains, and that fascinated me,” Yu said. “That’s why I always thought someday I would go to these places and travel.”

At 23, as an exchange student studying medical technologies in the US, Yu decided that she wanted to visit all of the countries in the world, but visa restrictions (限制) didn’t allow her to travel outside of the country.

It took Yu 15years to get her admission allowing her to travel internationally and there were times when she worked three jobs to save money to travel. She eventually took a part-time job as a travel agent, which gave her many more opportunities to travel to new places around the globe.

For the past 50 years, Yu has been visiting countries across the world, even some that are very difficult to get into. She has tried dog meat when she visited the DPRK, explored the beaches of Somalia, and even skydived in Dubai when she was 73. “Everyone said, ‘Don’t go to Somalia, that’s dangerous,’” Yu said. “If I want to go somewhere, nobody can stop me. I want to do everything.”

Yu achieved her goal to visit all of the 193 countries that are recognized by the UN, in November 2023. To date, there have only been around 400 people who have set out to achieve this amazing cause.

Yu’s advice to people who love to travel is to just do it. “Don’t wait for anybody. If I keep on waiting, it will never happen, because the opportunity sometimes comes only once,” she said.

There are a lot of strategies for visiting a museum and avoiding “museum tiredness”. Consider what is mentioned below in planning. 【小题1】

Regardless of a museum’s size, you’ll get tired quickly if you try to look closely at every object displayed. Likewise, most museums provide lots of information about the objects on view. So don’t try to read everything. 【小题2】 “Tombstone” labels are very brief and provide facts about the artist, their country etc. There may be a number, which the museum uses to register the object, usually according to when it became a part of the collection, and a credit line that indicates the donor. Object labels are placed next to many objects. 【小题3】 The approach used to write museum labels has been much debated among art historians and museum professionals.

【小题4】 Ask for a map, or have museum staff suggest highlights in the collection or special exhibitions. Many museums have special tours, audioguides, or downloadable apps that point you to these objects.

Some people recommend setting a specific amount of time for your visit (1 or 2 hours). 【小题5】 In addition to benches in the galleries, most museums have a cafe, shop, sculpture courtyard or gardens where you can hang out and relax for a bit.

A.You’ll likely meet with two types of labels.
B.You are sure to make the most of your experience.
C.It’s always a good idea to stop by the information desk.
D.It would also be wise to plan frequent breaks in the galleries.
E.Note that these might not be artworks that you find appealing.
F.If you live near, consider frequent visits to the changed exhibitions.
G.These aim to give information not always obvious about the artwork.

It can be challenging to talk over a trip and time away from work with another busy person in your life, 【小题2】. Usually, these challenges can be overcome by simply planning far in advance. However, if you can’t find a travel partner on short notice, it may be the perfect time to pack your bags and go anyway.

You’re your own great partner.

If you are a born open person, traveling alone can be a wonderful way to meet locals and make new friends. Often, people who are alone appear more approachable (亲近的) to others. 【小题4】. You could even join a group of like-minded people for yoga on the beach. The key is to keep an open mind while keeping safety in mind, especially in a foreign land.

Writing tips for travel journals

There are many benefits of keeping a journal when you’re traveling. It helps you remember your visit and learn more culture and customs. Also, it helps you reflect on what you have learned. 【小题1】 Here are some writing tips for your travel journals.

Write about what you imagine it will be like

Sometimes when you travel, your destination is wildly different than what you expected. Maybe you expected the local food to be bad but it turned out to be delicious. 【小题2】 . Maybe you thought you would be more comfortable with the language. Whatever it is, write it down before you arrive. It will be interesting to compare these predictions to your actual experiences.

Write during your trip

【小题3】 . Therefore, try and write as much as you can while traveling. Your journals don’t have to be long, but you should let them highlight what you feel. Before going to bed, try and recall what you did that day, what you thought and how you felt. This will serve as a great way to help you reflect and grow from what you experienced.

【小题4】

Even though your journal is meant for writing, pictures are still worth a thousand words. Combining pictures with your first-hand accounts of what they represent, or what happened when they were taken will make for an even more comprehensive narrative of your travels.

Write about your trip after you leave

It is necessary to write about your trip before you arrive. 【小题5】 . It is important to reflect on your travels to develop new understandings and apply them to future adventures.
