I was dirty smelly hungry and some somewhere beneath all that suntanned(皮肤晒黑).It was the end of an Inter-Rail holiday.My body couldn’t take any more punishment. My mind couldn't deal with any more foreign timetables currencies or languages.
" Never again ," I said as I stepped onto home ground.I said exactly the same thing the following year.And the next all I had to do was buy one train ticket and because I was under twenty―five years old,I could spend a whole month going anywhere I wanted in Europe. Ordinary beds are never the same once you've learnt to sleep in the passage of a train the rhythm rocking you into a deep sleep.
Carrying all your possessions on your back in a tucksack(背包) makes you have a vefy basic approach to travel,and encourages incredible wastefulness that can lead to burning socks that have become too anti-social(不合群的),and getting rid of books when finished.On the other hand this way of looking at life is entirely in the spirit of Inter―Rail for common sense and reasoning can be thrown out of the window along with the paperback book and the socks.All it takes to achieve this carefree attitude is one of those tickets in your hand.
Any system that enables young people to travef through countries at a rate of more than one a day must be pretty social on that first trip my friehds mad I were at first unaware of the possibilities of this type of train ticket,thinking it was just an inexpensive way of getting to and from our chosen camp-site in southern France.But the idea of non-stop travel proved too attractive,for there was always just one more country over the border,always that little bit further to go.And what did the extra miles cost us? Nothing.
We were not completely uninterested in culture.But this was a first holiday without parents,as it was for most other Inter-Railers and in organizing our own timetable we left out everything except the most available sights.This was the chance to escape the guided tour,an opportunity to do something different.I took great pride in the fact that.in many places,all I could be bothered to see was the view from the station.We were just there to get by,and to have good time doing so.In this we were not different from most of the other Inter-Raiders with whom we shared passage floors,food and water,money and music.
The excitement of travel comes from the sudden reality of somewhere that was previously just a name.It is as if the city in which you arrive never actually existed until the train pulls in at the station and you are able to see it with your own tired eyes for the first time.
