Home on the Way

People need homes. Children assume their parents’ place as home; boarders call school “home” on weekdays; married couples work together to build new homes … But travelers have no place to call “home”, at least for a few nights. 1. Don’t they have the right to a home? Of course they do.

Some regular travelers take their own belongings like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them have the feel of home no matter where they are; some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result become very familiar with its service and attendants; 2. Furthermore, driving a camping car during one’s travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night are just like home — only mobile!

And how about keeping relationships while in transit? 3. Some send letters and postcards, or even photos; others may just call and say hi, just to let their friends know that they’re still alive and well. People find ways to keep in touch. Making friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home. 4.

Nowadays, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found. 5.

A. Hostels provide a clean safe place to stay while you are traveling around the world.

B. others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make it more homely.

C. Backpackers in youth hostel may become very good friends, even closer than siblings (手足).

D. So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time?

E. No matter where you go in the world , hotels are there, too.

F. Some keep contact with their friends via the Internet.

G. Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination we can make the place we stay in “home”.
