學英語環遊世界

Not all classrooms have four walls. On the way to Bern, I was communicating with my other Couchsurfing host and he said he could not greet me at his house because he was having a Hebrew lesson. So he met me at the station and gave me his key and address and he left! Another adventure began. It was a cold, rainy November evening and the road to his apartment was really dark. When I finally opened the door, I saw a lovely cozy apartment complete with a cat. So I was hanging out by myself until Matthew came home. He then made me Pasta and dessert. This wasn’t the first time on my travels when I was given house keys by someone I had only just met. It is something that you wouldn’t normally expect in daily life, especially if you believe the world to be as difficult and dangerous as it seems in the news. This complete trust in other people is a refreshing and much-needed contrast. I love being a traveler and I really appreciate the trust of people who were strangers at the time we met. Their generosity and trust changed the way I see the world. It opened my eyes to the world of possibilities just waiting to be discovered.Stay tuned...there’s much more to come! In the next episode I’ll be taking a closer look at reasons why using couchsurfing benefitted my solo journey across Europe.****本系列会将中英的版本分开录制，想要进行更深入的英语听力学习或训练，可以听伴随在中文版本的下一集。得到本集节目的中英文文本，预定环欧火车旅行的资讯和网站，当时的照片和影片甚至路线图，请关注公众微信IFLYCLUB，回复文字“环欧火车10”

Not all classrooms have four walls. 不是所有的教室都有四堵牆。山和海也是課堂。

在去伯恩的路上，我和我的沙發主人Matthew聯繫，他說因為他要去上希伯來語課，不能在家裡迎接我，所以他在車站和我約見面，見到他後，他直接給了我他的鑰匙還有家地址就離開了！另一個冒險又開始了，那是一個又冷又下雨的11月晚上，去他公寓的路真的好黑。然而當我終於打開他的家門，我看到一個很溫暖可愛的公寓，還加上一隻貓咪，實在太完美了。

然後我就自己一個人打發時間直到主人Matthew回家。他煮了意大利面和甜點給我。

這並不是第一次在旅行的時候，剛認識的朋友給了我他們家裡的鑰匙。但這是在日常生活中你通常不會預料到的，特別是如果你相信這個世界就像電視新聞看到的那樣困難與危險。這種完全的信任讓人十分的耳目一新，而且也是這個社會非常需要的一種反差。我愛當一個旅行者，而且我很感激那些陌生人給我的信任。也因為他們的慷慨和信任讓我改變了對世界的看法。也讓我被這個世界等著被發現的機遇打開了眼界。

敬請期待，還有好多故事呢！

下一集我會和你分享為何使用沙發衝浪來橫跨歐洲對我獨自旅行益處多多！

搭乘火車一定要會使用這幾句話！

Is this the right platform for Malmo? 往馬爾默的火車是這個月台對嗎？（track 軌道）

Where do I change for Vienna? 想要去維也納的話，我要在哪裡轉車呢？

You’ll need to change in Budapest.  你必須在布達佩斯轉車。

Sometimes, I need to go off on my own. I'm not sad. I'm not angry. I'm just recharging my batteries.After thanking Yann for the wonderful hospitality for two days at his home, I decided to go for another scenic adventure, so I jumped on a random train up to the mountain. On the way up, I could see the whole Lake Geneva and the calm beauty truly amazed me. I arrived at the top at a place called Les Pleiades. It looked like a small village for skiing and was completely deserted. No one was getting off and I was reminded by the conductor that the train would start again in an hour. It was early November and it was starting to snow as I walked, tiny flakes of snow gently landing on my hair. For someone from a tropical island, the novelty of snow never wears thin. It was really beautiful and I almost went dancing (or slipping) on the train track with my heavy suitcase and backpack.. I was also feeling desperate for a toilet moment again, which is a strange physical reaction whenever excitement is mixed with the uncertainty of a trip.I went into this small restaurant which was empty and only had two staff working. One of the men was very friendly and let me know that I could use their restroom. The whole atmosphere was immediately relaxing. After the toilet break, I sat down and wondered if I should order something for lunch. I saw the Swiss Fondue on the menu and I was very curious. The waiter did not speak much English but he was very friendly when greeting me and took the time to teach me the finer details of how to enjoy my first Swiss Fondue through his careful coaching. The Swiss Fondue looked a lot like the “hot pot” we have in Asia, but instead of broth, it was melted cheese. You dip the bread and vegetables in the hot melting cheese, and you could sprinkle pepper on them to add to the flavor. I loved seeing the cheese dripping from my bread when I lifted it away from the pot and it was certainly very delicious and comforting for my tummy. Although I was alone, I truly enjoyed the atmosphere and immersed myself in exploring the new food, with a dream backdrop of a snowy mountain top. It was quite an expensive and simple lunch at 30 Euros but it was worth every cent. With little time to spare from my remaining 30 minutes, I paid for the meal and got on the train to head back down. Then it was time to head off to my next destination which was Bern!Stay tuned...there’s much more to come! In the next episode I’ll be sharing another heartwarming Couchsurfing experience in the capital city of Switzerland - Bern.搭乘火车一定会听到的几句英语：This train terminates here. 这是本列车的终点站。All change, please. 这里是终点，请换车。Please take all your luggage and personal belongings with you. 别忘记你的行李还有随身物品。****本系列会将中英的版本分开录制，想要进行更深入的英语听力学习或训练，可以听伴随在中文版本的下一集。得到本集节目的中英文文本，预定环欧火车旅行的资讯和网站，当时的照片和影片甚至路线图，请关注公众微信IFLYCLUB，回复文字“环欧火车9”

Sometimes, I need to go off on my own. I'm not sad. I'm not angry. I'm just recharging my batteries. 有時候，我需要一個人去旅行。我不傷心，我也沒有生氣，我只是在充電。

在謝謝Yann兩天在他家的熱情款待之後，我決定再去另一個美麗景色的冒險，所以我又跳上隨便一台車到山頂。在爬坡的路上，我可以看見日內瓦湖，它的寧靜的美麗真令人驚艷。我抵達了這個地方叫Les Pleiades。看起來像是一個滑雪而且完全無人的小鎮。沒有人下車，然而車掌提醒我再一個小時車會再發動下山。那是11月初，而且當我開始走路了就下雪了，雪花輕輕地降落在我的發梢，對於從熱帶島嶼來的我，下雪總是讓我感覺很新奇。真的很美，我幾乎在軌道上邊跳舞（或是快跌倒了），我也感覺非常地想要去洗手間，這也是旅行中當我既興奮又感到有許多不確定的時候會有的生理反應。

我進入了小小空空的只有兩個服務員在工作的餐廳，有一個男服務員，非常友善立刻讓我知道我可以使用他們的洗手間。整個餐廳的氣氛立刻就輕鬆下來了，我從洗手間回來，坐下就納悶我是否點個午餐來吃。我看到在菜單上有瑞士火鍋，我很好奇。服務員雖然說不太多英語，但招呼我非常友善，而且也很仔細教我如何去享用我的第一個瑞士火鍋。

瑞士的火鍋看起來就像我們在亞洲吃的火鍋，然而他的湯底不是大骨頭而是融化的奶酪。你可以用麵包和蔬菜沾那熱熱融化的火鍋里的奶酪，然後可以在上面撒一些胡椒增加風味。我非常喜歡看到當我拿起我的麵包，奶酪從上面滴下來的樣子，而且真的蠻好吃，我的胃也非常的滿足。雖然我是一個人，但是我真的很享受沈浸在那個氣氛之下而且又有如夢似的山上下雪的背景陪伴著我。

雖然是一頓既昂貴又簡單的一頓午餐，要價30歐元，但真的每一分都好值得。用著剩下的三十分鐘來享受一下，我買單後就接著上車往山下走。然後前往我的下個目的地：伯恩。

敬請期待，還有好多故事呢！

下一集我會和你分享在瑞士首都伯恩感受到的另外一個十分暖心的沙發客體驗。

搭乘火車一定會聽到的幾句英語：

This train terminates here. 這是本列車的終點站。

All change, please. 這裡是終點，請換車。

Please take all your luggage and personal belongings with you. 別忘記你的行李還有隨身物品。

Sometimes, I need to go off on my own. I'm not sad. I'm not angry. I'm just recharging my batteries. 有时候，我需要一个人去旅行。我不伤心，我也没有生气，我只是在充电。在谢谢Yann两天在他家的热情款待之后，我决定再去另一个美丽景色的冒险，所以我又跳上随便一台车到山顶。在爬坡的路上，我可以看见日内瓦湖，它的宁静的美丽真令人惊艳。我抵达了这个地方叫Les Pleiades。看起来像是一个滑雪而且完全无人的小镇。没有人下车，然而车掌提醒我再一个小时车会再发动下山。那是11月初，而且当我开始走路了就下雪了，雪花轻轻地降落在我的发梢，对于从热带岛屿来的我，下雪总是让我感觉很新奇。真的很美，我几乎在轨道上边跳舞（或是快跌倒了），我也感觉非常地想要去洗手间，这也是旅行中当我既兴奋又感到有许多不确定的时候会有的生理反应。我进入了小小空空的只有两个服务员在工作的餐厅，有一个男服务员，非常友善立刻让我知道我可以使用他们的洗手间。整个餐厅的气氛立刻就轻松下来了，我从洗手间回来，坐下就纳闷我是否点个午餐来吃。我看到在菜单上有瑞士火锅，我很好奇。服务员虽然说不太多英语，但招呼我非常友善，而且也很仔细教我如何去享用我的第一个瑞士火锅。瑞士的火锅看起来就像我们在亚洲吃的火锅，然而他的汤底不是大骨头而是融化的奶酪。你可以用面包和蔬菜沾那热热融化的火锅里的奶酪，然后可以在上面撒一些胡椒增加风味。我非常喜欢看到当我拿起我的面包，奶酪从上面滴下来的样子，而且真的蛮好吃，我的胃也非常的满足。虽然我是一个人，但是我真的很享受沉浸在那个气氛之下而且又有如梦似的山上下雪的背景陪伴着我。虽然是一顿既昂贵又简单的一顿午餐，要价30欧元，但真的每一分都好值得。用着剩下的三十分钟来享受一下，我买单后就接着上车往山下走。然后前往我的下个目的地：伯恩。敬请期待，还有好多故事呢！下一集我会和你分享在瑞士首都伯恩感受到的另外一个十分暖心的沙发客体验。搭乘火车一定会听到的几句英语：This train terminates here. 这是本列车的终点站。All change, please. 这里是终点，请换车。Please take all your luggage and personal belongings with you. 别忘记你的行李还有随身物品。****本系列会将中英的版本分开录制，想要进行更深入的英语听力学习或训练，可以听伴随在中文版本的下一集。得到本集节目的中英文文本，预定环欧火车旅行的资讯和网站，当时的照片和影片甚至路线图，请关注公众微信IFLYCLUB，回复文字“环欧火车9”

I am not the same, having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world.

That morning, Yann showed me around Lake Geneva and dropped me off at a vineyard. He suggested I hike up the mountain and then hitchhike to Montreux. After that, I was off on my adventure. I was a little bit disoriented and thought it would be too cold for me to go hiking, so I immediately found a train station nearby and hopped on a train at random to see where destiny would take me.

As luck would have it, the train I took ended up in Montreux. Along the way I was so excited and mesmerized by the scenic view through the train window! I walked around the small town and time seemed to go by so slowly. Then I asked a clerk about the scenic train which was included in my pass and went on another ride through the mountains to Zweismmen. I was amazed by the picturesque little houses I passed in the valleys, and the rugged mountains that towered overhead. After I visited the village, I came down the mountain on the Golden Pass (one of the most famous trains in Switzerland), and it was the most luxurious experience I’ve ever had. The green upholstered seat I was sitting in was so comfortable and beautiful, it made me feel like a queen. When I looked out the window I was really amazed and wondered what life would be like living in this majestic landscape.

In the evening, I offered to cook dumplings for Yann. He was curious about every step I took when preparing them. He had coincidentally bought me dessert and drinks from a Chinese shop nearby, so we ended up making a very Chinese dinner together. We talked about my adventures and had a really lovely time chatting deep into the night.

Stay tuned...there’s much more to come!

In the next episode I’ll be sharing my first experience of eating a Swiss fondue!

I am not the same, having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world. 我不再是從前的我了，因為我看過月亮在世界的另一邊閃耀。

那天早晨，Yann帶我去日內瓦湖附近，然後在一個葡萄園把我放下來。他建議我爬山然後搭便車到蒙特勒。之後，我的冒險開始了，我有點搞不清楚方向，然後感覺爬山有點冷，所以我很快的找到了附近的火車站，然後就隨便跳上了一台車，看看命運會帶我去哪裡。

運氣很好，這車果真就一路開到了蒙特勒。在路上我好興奮和被這窗外美輪美奐的景色吸引得不得了！我沿著小鎮走了一圈，時間過得好慢。我問了票務員，哪台車是包含在我環歐通票的景觀車，我立刻又坐了另一台車穿越山嶺的到了茲懷斯文。我真的對坐落在山谷之間那如畫般的小房子還有險峻的山峰的景色給迷倒了。參觀完小村落後，我坐上了在瑞士最著名的景觀列車之一的黃金列車下山，那也是我最奢華的火車經驗。那有著綠色布料裝飾的暖墊椅子好舒服又美麗。讓我感覺好像皇后一樣。當我從窗外看出去，我真的很驚艷也納悶那些住在這樣雄麗風景下的生活是如何。

晚上，我主動提出要包餃子給Yann。他很好奇我準備的每一個步驟，他也很巧的買了中國的甜點還有飲料給我，所以我們吃了非常中國風味的一餐。我們就聊我的冒險記，然後聊得很開心一直到夜深了。

敬請期待，還有好多故事呢！

下一集我會和你分享更多我吃瑞士火鍋的初次體驗！
