Where there’s a will, there’s a way. 有志者，事竟成。
I had such an eventful week in Switzerland. Not only did I make new friends, go sightseeing and enjoy some amazing local food but I also got to see friends who I met on my previous trip.
我在瑞士度過了好充實的一周，我不僅交了新朋友、去觀光、還去享受了許多美妙的食物，甚至見了我在之前旅行認識的朋友。
I met Patricia in May, 2019, when I was visiting Ibiza. We were sharing the same room in the hostel and Patricia was very outgoing so we immediately became friends. We’ve kept in touch since our meeting in Ibiza. That day she and her daughter came out of their way and drove to meet me in Lucerne, which is their favourite city. They invited me on a scenic boat ride before taking a cable car up to a very luxurious hotel in the mountains for drinks. The scenery was even more breathtaking when shared and enjoyed with a good friend!
我在2019年5月的時候，在拜訪伊比薩的時候遇見Patricia。我們住在同一間青年旅捨的同一間房。Patricia非常的外向，所以我們馬上就成為了朋友。離開伊比薩之後我一直有聯繫。那天她和她女兒特別開車來魯森來看我，魯森也是他們最喜歡的城市。他們邀請我坐上了景觀船，然後我們坐上了纜車到了山上一家非常奢華的酒店喝飲料。和一個好朋友在一起景色變得更美麗。
Many of my listeners tell me that they want to travel but often feel unable to because of kids and current family responsibilities. Patricia is living and breathing proof that it is possible to manage both. She is a single working mom who is also very well-traveled and never compromises on the things in life that matter to her. Like me, travel is her biggest passion! She told me about many amazing solo travel experiences as well as priceless journeys shared with her two kids on road trips. One of her most memorable family trips was an unplanned, ten day visit to Italy in her car. They left Switzerland without any bookings to their name, preferring to see where their journey took them each day. On one night, this meant an evening sleeping in the car; an experience her kids will no doubt remind her of for many years to come.
我有很多聽眾告訴我，他們想要旅行然而因為他們的小孩還有當前的家庭責任他們沒有辦法。Patricia就是可以兼顧到這兩者的活生生的例子。她是個在上班的單親媽媽，然而她也遊歷了非常多國家也從不會和生活要事妥協。就像我一樣，旅行是她最大的熱情。她告訴我許多她獨自旅行的美妙經驗，甚至還有和她兩個孩子一起的公路旅行。讓她最印象深刻的其中一個家庭旅遊就是一個沒有計劃的十天意大利之旅。他們沒有預定任何房間，從瑞士離開就看看他們的旅行會帶他們到什麼地方去。有一晚，甚至要睡在車里，然而這是個絕對會讓她的孩子接下來許多年都會提醒她的一個體驗。
She and I both believe that where there’s a will, there’s a way.
她和我都相信，有志者事竟成。
Stay tuned…there’s much more to come!
In the next episode I’ll be sharing a story of visiting the first podcast tower in Zurich, Switzerland.
