Ten Years of Backpacking: My Career is Traveling (revised Version with Pictures and Text)

About This Novel

"Travel is the only solemn thing I have done in these ten years. Every inch of the road I take is brand new. I have no shame or regret!" - Xiaopeng This is a sharing of a ten-year backpacking journey, and it is also the dream declaration of a lonely fanatic. In 2001, there were exactly ten days of free time between the thesis defense and the graduation ceremony. After Xiaopeng's defense, he returned to the dormitory and borrowed a 70-liter backpack from a Korean classmate. In order to increase his sense of security, he nervously stuffed a Swiss Army knife into it. That day, he took the southbound train from Tianjin to Guilin, with hard seats available 24 hours a day, and then transferred to a minibus to reach the first stop of his ten-year journey: Yangshuo. This begins the story of backpacker Xiaopeng. In the past ten years, Xiaopeng has not done anything too serious, except traveling - this is the only thing he takes seriously in his life. Between the latitude and longitude, he used his unique travel method to stuff half of the world into his backpack. In the past ten years, I have worked in different jobs, slept in different beds, met different faces, seen different scenery, and listened to different languages. In the past ten years, I have been happy, lonely, proud, frustrated, passionate, sad, in tears, excited and ecstatic, and disheartened. If youth is a magnificent poem, Xiaopeng spent ten years making every word in this poem full of strokes. In 2010, seven years later, Xiaopeng returned to Lijiang and stayed in an inn. At night, he saw several young people carrying big bags and wiping their sweat while looking for a place to stay. He seemed to see his former self.
