作者序
Author’s Forewords
I’m the summary of every experience that’s ever happened to me since the first day of my existence. Just imagine if I had lived and died in the same place, how different my life would be. Fortunately, I was blessed with the opportunity to travel the globe my entire life. I’m able to experience the colors, sounds, tastes, smells and textures of the unfamiliar. To travel is to live a life inspired by differences, no matter how big or small the change is, I will always take something back.
In this book, I’d like to teach you the most common words used in the most common situations you’ll encounter while travelling. You don’t need to speak the language fluently to communicate, just try to communicate and you’ll get your point across. Life is an adventure and travelling is a big part of it, so the next time you travel, take a risk, get lost and make some friends along the way.

今日的我,是我出生至今每一日所得的經驗總結起來而成的。如果自己從沒有離開香港,一直都在同一個地方生老病死的話,我的人生真的會截然不同。幸運地,我備受眷顧,一生中有不少機會環遊全世界。我可以親身去感受、去體驗這個世界不同的顏色、聲音、氣味和質感。生命中的每一次旅遊,都讓我獲得無限啟發;無論轉變是大是小,我永遠都在啟發中去學習,去成長。
這本書意為你提供最常用、最常見的語句,使你能在旅遊時經常會遇上的情況下運用。在外地與當地人溝通時,不需要說得流利,只要肯嘗試,用心地去與人溝通,別人必可領略你的重點。生命是一場冒險,而旅遊是其中的一個重要部分。所以,下次當你到外地旅遊時,嘗試製造冒險的機會吧!為自己找些迷路的經驗,因為在迷路中你會認識更多的新朋友。
