“旅行的藝術”

1. Pick a destination that raises more questions than answers.

“When I travel，” Iyer says， “I want to be moved， I want to be riding on a variety of means of transportation to travel and I want to be sent back a different person.”

2. Leave the hi-tech products at home.

“The more the world moves toward movement， acceleration and data， the more we desire for the feeling of silence， stillness and spaciousness，” Iyer says. Iyer has visited monasteries many times for the past 20 years just to escape his phone and laptop， and he says he has found it liberating.

3. Rely on yourself.

“Self-sufficiency can be one of the best parts of travel，” Theroux says. He says walking， looking at mountains and water， and just experiencing the simplicity and primitivism of life can lead you to a destination you end up truly loving.

4. Visit a charismatic place， not a pleasant place.

“I would never call Jerusalem beautiful or comfortable or consoling，” Iyer says. “But there’s charm about it that you can’t turn away from.” Similarly， he says， sitting in a very simple place like a Californian monastery in the midst of a storm takes you back to an essential， almost primal sense of fear or isolation—yet the sense is the glamorous part of the experience.

5. Just go!

“Take more time and don’t be afraid of trouble，” lyer advises， “to seek out the new places.”

1. 找一個能讓你收獲更多問題而不是答案的目的地。

Iyer說：“當我旅行的時候，我想要移動，我想要乘著各種交通工具出行，我想要我回來的時候能夠成為一個不同的人。”

2. 把高科技產品留在家里。

Iyer說：“世界越向著移動、快速、數據化發展，我們越渴望無聲、平靜、空曠的感覺。”過去20年間，Iyer常常去修道院旅行，就是為了逃避手機和筆記本電腦，而他發現這是一種自我解放。

3. 自力更生。

Theroux說：“自力更生”可能是一次旅行中最美好的經歷之一。他說行走、看山看水，或者僅僅享受生活的簡單和自然，都能讓你到達你會真正愛上的目的地。

4. 去有魅力的地方，不要去令人愉悅的地方。

Iyer說：“我永遠不會說耶路撒冷美麗或舒適或給人以安慰，但它就是有一種魅力，讓你無法轉身離開。”同樣，他說在風暴中，坐在像加利福尼亞修道院一樣簡單的地方，會帶給你一種本質、幾乎原始的恐懼或孤寂感——但這種感覺也是這段經歷中富有魅力的部分。

5. 出發吧！

Iyer建議：“多花點時間，不要怕麻煩，去探索一下那些新世界吧！”
