1239 我的心就是注定要旅行 ｜ 在瑞士旅行感受到的窘境和震撼

My heart is born to travel. 我的心就是注定要旅行。

I actually didn’t know there was a basement, at first. Yann took me downstairs to a huge and dimly lit laundry room and where the family hung their clothes to dry. It was very strange for me, since in Spain and in Asia, we hang most of our laundry to dry in the sun outside. Being in this laundry room made me realize how dirty my clothes were -- I only had three sets of clothes and I hadn’t washed them in a week! Unfortunately, my awkwardness got the better of me, and I decided against asking to use his washing machine. I would go on wearing these old clothes. When we walked out of the laundry room, Yann led me to another door and told me to close my eyes.

事实上，原先我不知道那里有一个地下室。Yann带我到地下室到一个好大的暗暗的洗衣室，那里是他的家人晾他们衣服的地方。在西班牙还有在亚洲，我们大多把我们的衣服晾在太阳下，所以个感觉有点奇怪，但是在那个洗衣间里，我又想到因为旅行只有带三套衣服出来，一周在路上没洗衣服，我现在衣服很脏，但是我觉得实在有点别扭，所以我并没有问他要使用他的洗衣机。我就继续穿我的髒衣服吧。当我们走出洗衣室之后，Yann 告诉我要闭上自己的眼睛。

When I opened my eyes again I saw a church. The house was actually connected to the church where Yann and his wife had been preaching. He told me he moved here twenty years ago and the church gave him this house so he and his family could have a place to live. He told me that, because his son has grown up and moved away, he has a spare room to offer to guests. He has hosted guests like me from around the world in that room. In fact, he has made a point of only hosting guests from countries he didn’t know too much about.

当我又打开自己的眼睛我看到了一个教堂，原来房子是和他和他老婆传道的教堂是连在一起的。他告诉我他20年前搬来这里，教堂送他们这个房子给他和他的家人住，但是他的儿子已经长大离开家，家里有一个空房可以给客人用。他就开始招待世界各地的人，事实上，他也强调他只提供给那些他不太认识的国家的人来住宿。

I was deeply touched by his story and I think he was an amazing man. 

他的故事让我很感动，而且我觉得他是一个很棒的人。
