　　独自旅行会非常恐怖、惊险，也很有风险。
　　Most importantly, though, traveling solo can be one of the most eye-opening experiences. Here are 10 tips to help make your first solo traveling experience a full-on success.
　　不过，最重要的是，独自旅行可是最令人大开眼界的体验之一。以下10条小贴士能帮助第一次独自旅行的你圆满完成旅程。
　　帮助你圆满完成独自旅行的十条小贴士
　　1.Do your research.
　　1.做足功课
　　Before you go to a new place, make sure to do your research. This sounds fairly obvious, yet there are still so many people who seem to just wing it. Be thorough 4 and look into where you're going. Check out the surrounding area, bars and restaurants you want to try out, excursions you want to do, prices for basics like food and drink, local customs and local language, etc. You can never be too prepared when traveling alone.
　　你去一个新地方之前，务必做足功课。深入了解、研究你的旅行目的地。查一查周围环境，你想尝试的酒吧、餐厅，你想游览的地方，食物饮料等基本生活用品的价格，当地风俗和语言。独自旅行时，再怎么做准备都不为过。
　　2.Save, save, save.
　　2.攒钱，攒钱，再攒钱
　　I'm talking about really saving here — not just spending your money as usual and taking your last paycheck with you. Decide how much you can spare from each paycheck and start taking it out. If you're traveling with someone and run out of money, you can (hopefully) count on them to spot you. If you're on your own, you're literally 6 on your own.
　　这里我说的是真正的攒钱——而不是像平常那样花钱，只带着上个月的工资去旅行。确定你可以从每个月的工资里省下多少钱，并开始把这部分钱拿出来。如果你是结伴同行，你的钱花光了你还可以（有望）找他们接济你一点。但是你独自旅行，只得靠自己了。
　　Figure out how much you will need and double it. It's better to have more than you need and be able to bring some back with you than to run out. Also, make sure to call your bank and let them know where and when you're traveling, so they doesn't freeze your card.
　　计算出你需要的旅行费用，并乘以二。带的钱最好比你实际需要的多，且旅行回来最好还剩一点，不要都花光。此外，务必致电开户行，告知你的旅行地点和时间，这样你的银行卡就不会被冻结。
　　3.Break up with your comfort zone.
　　3.走出舒适区
　　Whether it's with food, excursions or the location, there is no one to stop you from doing what you want, so do it up. I firmly believe you should do something each trip that makes you face your fears.
　　不论是食物、短途旅行还是地点，你想做的事情没人会阻止，那就放开去做吧！每次旅行都应该做点直面内心恐惧的事。
　　Climb Mount 7 Everest, go on a safari 8 in Africa, eat alone at a cafe — there are so many options. Enjoy all of the opportunities that will come your way and take full advantage of them.
　　爬上珠穆朗玛峰,去非洲狩猎,一个人去咖啡馆用餐等，你有很多的选择。享受你的旅程中可能遇到的所有事，充分利用它们。
　　4.Make sure you have a form of contact.
　　4.与家人保持联系
　　Try to set a certain time to check in by each day, and make sure to set your alarm so you don't miss it. If you're traveling into a different time zone it will be more difficult, but still try to update the loved ones you need to.
　　每天都定时将你的行程告诉家人，记得每天定好闹钟提醒这样你就不会错过他们。如果你去不同的时区旅行时，这些执行起来会更加困难，但还是要试着让关心你的家人们知道你的最新行踪。
　　5.Don't be afraid to trust locals, but don't be too naive 9
　　5.相信本地人，但也别太天真
　　Be conscious of your surroundings. If someone is shady 10, get yourself away from the situation. Don't tell people where you're staying. Don't accept drinks from strangers (obvi), and try not to walk to a lot of places alone at night.
　　对周围情况保持警惕。如有可疑之人，要远离。不要把住所告诉别人。不要喝陌生人提供的饮料（必须的），不要在夜里去太多的地方。
　　6.Do excursions that will immerse 11 you in the culture of the country.
　　6.了解当地文化
　　Take advantage of being able to learn more about a different culture. Try a walking tour. You'll be able to see so much in one day. Doing guided tours will help you fully 5 learn about the past, present and future of the country in ways you wouldn't be able to do without a history book.
　　尽可能利用机会学习更多不同的文化。尝试步行。一天之内你可以看到很多东西。有导游引导的旅行能帮助你更多的了解一个国家的过去，现在和未来，而这些是你在历史教科书上学不来的。
　　7.Don't ruin your trip by constantly looking for souvenirs.
　　7.别因为不断搜罗纪念品而扫了旅行的兴致.
　　Enjoy your time without having to constantly worry about finding gifts for an army. It's stressful, and it's taking from money you should be spending on yourself. It's one thing if someone gives you money for something specific, but if not, learn to stand up straight and say no. If your friends and family love you, they'll understand.
　　享受你的旅行时光，不必老是纠结为一大群人找礼物。这会让人有压力，而且这笔花销是从本该花在自己身上的钱里出的。如果有人给你钱叫你买某样东西是一回事，否则，学着维护自己的权益，学会拒绝。如果你的朋友和家人爱你的话，他们会理解的。
　　8.Selfie sticks are ridiculous, but they're also your best friend.
　　8.自拍杆很无聊，但它们是你最好的朋友
　　One of the best things about traveling with others is they can take some artsy, Insta-worthy shots of you. Instead of asking a stranger, invest in a selfie stick and own the shit out of it. Yeah, so what if it's absurd 12? You'll feel worse when you look back and realize you have no photos of yourself standing 13 in front of the world's largest castle in Prague.
　　与他人结伴旅游最大的好处之一是他们可以帮你拍出一些很艺术的照片。带上自拍杆，不用求助陌生人，自己轻松搞定。然而，最囧的是什么呢？当你站在布拉格全球最大的城堡前拍完照，发现根本找不到自己。
　　9.Ease yourself in with some group tours.
　　9.参加一个旅行团
　　If you're still nervous about traveling alone, take some baby steps and start with a guided group tour. This way, you aren't completely alone, but you'll still feel independent. Plus, you'll learn more and make some friends while you're at it!
　　如果仍对独自旅行感到紧张，那就从头开始，参加一个旅行团吧。这样，你就并非完全的孤单，但仍能感到独立。此外，你还能学到更多，并交到更多的朋友。
　　10.Don't be afraid to get lost.
　　10.别害怕迷路
　　Getting lost is half the fun. Sometimes, you end up in the most magical places you never would have known existed. Don't be afraid to get dropped off in a different part of a city each day. Or, just go out and walk around for hours and see where it takes you.
　　旅行中一半的乐趣在于迷路。有时，你最终会抵达最奇妙的地方，要不是迷路你永远都不知道还存在这样的地方。每天别害怕会在城市的不同地方下车。或者干脆出去随便走上几小时，看看最后会走到哪儿。
　　I cannot emphasize enough the importance of solo travel to gain a sense of independence. You are completely responsible and you have no one to lean on but yourself. Travel feeds the soul.
　　关于独立旅行以获得独立感的重要性，我无需再强调。你终于完全为自己负责，除了自己别无依靠。旅行滋养灵魂。
